Protecting Mission. Proclaiming Christ.

Crisis never waits for a convenient moment. Natural disasters, political upheaval, and security threats often strike when the gospel is advancing. That’s why ABWE’s International Security and Crisis Management ministry exists—to safeguard missionaries, strengthen churches, and keep the Great Commission moving forward when the world feels most unstable.

A Gospel-Centered Approach to Crisis

Our mission is simple: no emergency should interrupt the work God has entrusted to His people. From readiness training to rapid response to long-term recovery, every effort is rooted in the conviction that Christ is sovereign over crisis and that every disaster is also an opportunity for gospel witness.

• Readiness: Equipping missionaries and partners with the training, planning, and resources needed before crisis strikes.
• Response: Mobilizing trusted responders to meet urgent needs with courage, compassion, and clarity.
• Recovery: Walking alongside churches and communities to rebuild lives and restore gospel witness.

Unified Global Support

This ministry draws on ABWE missionaries, local partners, and trained responders from our Global Family of Ministries. Whether the challenge is disaster relief, persecution, or long-term care, our teams deploy quickly and serve faithfully—with both professional excellence and Christlike compassion.

Why It Matters

In moments of fear and loss, the Church has a unique opportunity to shine. By standing with our missionaries in their most difficult hours, we ensure they can remain present, proclaim Christ, and even see their ministries grow through adversity.
