The Great Mission

The Great Mission's vision is to advance the Christian faith by helping and serving people in material and spiritual ways. Through a network of missionary evangelists we hold events to distribute aid to the poor and to educate communities to better their lives. Currently our main base is in Brazil, though our missionaries also operate in Africa and Central Asia.
