Reaching the urban poor . . .
When Minnie’s parents both died of AIDS, the 15
year old was left in charge of her four siblings.
When Action International Ministries’
missionaries met her, she was in a desperate struggle to keep the family
off the streets of Lusaka, Zambia.
If this could be accomplished, think of the grief they
could be spared.
Daily, thousands of people enter the world’s
cities – adding to the number of underprivileged and often exploited
people. They are the poor in squatter areas, the unemployed, the street
dwellers, those caught in various addictions.
For the past 30 years, Action has been committed to
serve them.
They work primarily in major cities, in 20 countries
– in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe.
More than 220 Action missionaries work with local
Christians and their churches, in evangelism, discipleship and development.
Contact Action International Ministries for more
information.
