About the CBF Offering for Global Missions
- This year’s Offering goal is $6.15 million.
- The CBF Offering for Global Missions goes to field personnel salaries, benefits and ministry expenses.
- This Offering is not “over and above” the CBF Global Missions budget.
- The Offering is the PRIMARY way CBF field personnel are funded.
- Your gifts to the Offering help spread the Gospel and meet physical needs among the most neglected in the U.S. and around the world.
- CBF Global Missions field personnel have a two-fold responsibility: serve as an extension of the local church and facilitate the local church’s coming alongside them in ministry.
Fall/Christmas
- Embrace the World by connecting with ministries among unreached people groups in India.
For five years, Sam Bandela, one of CBF’s Global Missions field personnel, has been working patiently among hill tribes in the mountainous central region of India.
Even as tsunami relief and personal challenges intervened, Bandela continued to find trusted local partners, train indigenous church planters and fund development projects in the area.
Now, he is seeing results.
Among three tribal groups – Sora, Jathava and Kui – in the mountainous region between the Andhra Pradesh and Orissa states, 50 new churches have been planted as dozens of families have embraced Jesus Christ, some in spite of active resistance by other religious groups.

Spring/Easter
Embrace the World by connecting with ministries among Arab Americans in Brooklyn, N.Y.
At the Arab American Friendship Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., 30 women crowd into a small classroom with only 20 chairs. Their desire to learn and fellowship together is so great that they are willing to spend several hours standing along the wall or sit two to a seat.
Four mornings a week, Nomie Derani, one of CBF’s Global Missions field personnel; Fadia Farag, the women’s director; and the staff of the FriendshipCenter offers classes for Arab women in the Bay Ridge neighborhood of Brooklyn. The FriendshipCenter not only provides classes on English and citizenship but also offers a place of hope and affirmation in a foreign culture.
At the Friendship Center, the motto is “To love them, so they ask why.”
