Life in poor communities is hard.
The Church is a display of God's glory in the midst of a hurting community. Who will go and build healthy churches among the world's poorest communities? We define hard places as "economically and socially disadvantaged communities." Churches in hard places often share common struggles. Our goal is to equip church leaders, train indigenous believers, and develop resources to build healthy churches in hard places.
