2025 ABWE Annual Report: God Is on the Move

Rejoice with us in what God is doing through the ABWE global family as 923 workers reach 92 nations.

From Message magazine issue "Answering the Call to Africa"

In light of our 2026 initiative to not merely reach the nations with a baseline level of gospel witness but to flood them—to overwhelm them, to saturate them—with the gospel (see Habakkuk 2:14), I’ll be honest: I’m someone for whom numbers matter. 

I value statistics not because I want to get into bean counting or treat people as tallies on a scorecard, but because each individual baptized, each church planted, and each new missionary sent represents a story of eternal transformation wrought by the gospel of grace. A soul saved from sin. A new local outpost of Christ’s body now shining the light of his kingdom in its community. A new faithful disciple answering the call of the Great Commission. 

As you rejoice with us in what God has done through the ABWE global family—approximately 1,000 workers touching more than 90 nations in 2025—celebrate and give thanks. But don’t make the mistake of becoming numb to it. God is on the move. And there’s more to be done. 

Our vision is God-sized, which means it will take the working of our sovereign, triune God to accomplish it. This is why we pray, why we give, and why we go.
