Cross Country Missions

Organization Description: 

We are a Christian ministry who's main objective is to connect Christians with rural Xhosa communities on the Wild Coast, South Africa. The organisation was started back in '08 and has provided an opportunity for numerous groups to serve in rural Africa. We are registered as a NGO, which means any profit we make gets put back into the communities we are working in.

Organizational Statement of Faith: 

WHAT WE BELIEVE:
As our faith in God is the motivation behind our involvement in this ministry and underpins all that we do.
We believe that the Bible is God's inspired and authoritative word, revealing that:
• Jesus Christ is God's son;
• People are created in God's image;
• God created us to have a relationship with Him for eternity
• The sinful nature that all mankind has is an obstacle to this relationship, but God has made salvation possible through the death on the cross and resurrection of Jesus Christ;
• God desires all people to be saved and to know the truth;
• The Holy Spirit is our counselor, guide and equips us
• The Holy Spirit’s power is demonstrated in and through us for the accomplishment of Christ's last commandment, "...Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation" (Mark 16:15; NIV).

The motivation behind what we do is that we believe John 3:16 is true for everybody and, we also want to see John 10:10, "I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full", become a reality in the body of Christ.
