About Us

C.I.Y. is a ministry
for the national worker. In the early 90's my heart was
impressed to look to the Harvest and see the value of the
national minister. Prayer has led us to begin this ministry
dedicated to equipping nationals with resources to reach the
harvest, and to make our churches in the "West" aware of
what is happening on the mission field through the work of
our foreign brothers.
As a Pastor and Evangelist
for the last 19 years I was amazed at denominational
financial requirements set for our western missionaries.
Today I don't know one Missionary family who can be approved
for less than $5,000 to $8,000 per month support, or even
much more. In contrast the average national worker can live
on $200 to $300 monthly, and many times for less.
We are personally familiar
with our pastors/evangelists that we support with CIY
funds. For example, one of our CIY Evangelists has
pioneered 285 churches on a budget that has peeked at
$20,000 U.S. dollars per year. Having personally visited
this ministry I can testify to the stability of this
ministry and what a joy to see dedicated leaders pastoring
these solid indigenous churches.
