I first encountered David Sitton and To Every Tribe Ministries at a Desiring God conference in which David Sitton spoke on missions. My heart was very impacted for missions there. It is my hope that the Lord may grant us to become more involved in His great plan of missions to people and places that have not yet heard the name of Jesus Christ.
I am very thankful for people like David Sitton, David Brainerd, John Paton, Hudson Taylor, Adoniram Judson, Jim Elliot & his friends and family, and countless others like them throughout history. These have proved faithful by their obedience to the great commission and by their lives which demonstrated that "to live is Christ and to die is gain" and by their example that they "count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus."
To Every Tribe Ministries Mission Statement:
Our missions motto is well stated by the Apostle Paul in Romans 15:20-21.
"It has always been my ambition to preach the gospel where Christ was not known, so that I would not be building on someone else's foundation. Rather, as it is written: Those who were not told about him will see, and those who have not heard will understand."
MISSION STATEMENT: To Every Tribe Ministries exists to glorify God by planting evangelical Christian churches in the interior, unevangelized regions of Papua New Guinea and Mexico. A vital part of our mission includes mobilizing and equipping existing churches to reproduce and become missionary sending churches themselves.
TETM has many responsibilities and ministries, but everything we do is directly related to our mission statement above.
In order to achieve our purpose, we are committed to the following ministries. Each of these areas of ministry is fully detailed in the appropriate places on this web site.
¨ Church Planting in Papua New Guinea
¨ Church Planting in Mexico
