Matthew 25 Initiative contends for shalom in broken places.

MINISTRY PARTNERS

Ministry Partners

Ministry Partners are those who are actively contending for shalom in marginalized and vulnerable communities within the ACNA. Many of our ministry partners have received an M25i financial grant.

We are a growing community and welcome ministries who desire to serve “the least of these” in partnership with the ACNA.

M25i Practitioners serve across many ministries fulfilling the biblical call to love the marginalized and vulnerable.
