About the Ministry
Established in 2005, Partners India International is an indigenous-led, Christian missions agency committed to strategically proclaim the Gospel to the most unreached and unengaged people groups. It offers leadership development by equipping Bible students for their call to ministry. It also offers compassion services in which the love and hope of Jesus are demonstrated through medical camps, literacy and development programs, AIDS awareness and skilled-labor training programs.
Team Projects
Our short-term team will support Partners India International as it reaches into villages outside of two large northern cities. These missions involve ministering to village children, distributing health and hygiene kits, providing medical support (when teams include qualified medical personnel), mentoring pastors and students, teaching English at local schools, offering basic computer training, engaging in question-and-answer sessions with college students, speaking to teenagers about God’s love, distributing food, and more.
PAC-Supported Missionaries
While each short-term team raises the expenses related to the work of the team, contributions to the Global Ministry Fund help support the ongoing ministry needs of our missionary partners in India. The safety of all of our missionaries is critical to us. Some serve in parts of the world that require additional sensitivity. If you would like to know more about our missionaries in India, please contact the PAC Global Outreach Ministry at 609.799.9000 x20.
