Christ Wesleyan Church often works with World Hope International to provide wells, rural development, micro-financing, education, and hope to many communities in struggling economies. We have a goal at each event, whether liberating several trafficking victims, buying cows for a village, or assisting a local family or charity in need.

We will designate the funds per event after prayerful consideration. If you would like to download a World Hope brochure, go here: http://www.worldhope.org/pdf/trfbrochuremr.pdf
