What it costs to support your missionary
Supporting the Whole Missionary
SEND aims to provide an adequate but modest income to your missionaries based on the cost of living in the country where they serve. We understand that each missionary family faces unique needs, so we offer some flexibility in our support structure, not wanting finances to keep anyone from cross-cultural ministry.

Local church
The local church sets apart and commissions missionaries to service. SEND respects that special relationship between the sending church and its missionaries.

Support commitment
Support commitments from churches and individuals inform SEND of a donor’s intentions. These commitments are not contracts and are not legally binding. This information helps SEND determine if a missionary has enough financial backing to thrive in ministry. Support commitment cards are available on request.
