We want to show you some of the things we have learned about missionary work. Ethnos360 global partners come from 36 countries and work in 34 countries with ministries in hundreds of languages. We can show you ministry activities in Papua New Guinea and a few other countries, but lack the personnel or freedom to show much of God’s work in other countries where God is doing amazing things in hearts and lives through dedicated people.
Our prayer is that these videos will give you a representative glimpse of what you might do in praying, giving, or going — to have a part in sharing the Gospel in places around the world where Christ is still unknown.

Support ministries: the backbone of church planting
- School Teachers in Missions — teachers free other missionaries to use their skills and prepare the next generation.
- Aviation in Missions — see more at Ethnos360 Aviation videos, and our own page on aviation.
- Medical — medicine has a HUGE impact in enabling church planting. If basic medical needs cannot be met nearby, missionaries must invest huge amounts of time away from ministry so that family needs can be met. Medical teams keep church planters healthy, strong, and present.
- I Couldn’t Be a Missionary and Use Your Professional Skills on the Mission Field — skilled associates serve overseas 2-4 years in trades, IT, admin, construction, and more.
