ABOUT WORLD ENCOMPASS
World Encompass exists to help children and families discover God’s work around the world. Through monthly journeys, families explore real countries, meet the people who live there, discover trusted local ministries, and learn simple ways to pray, care, and respond together.
We believe God is at work in every nation and that children can grow up with a deeper understanding of the world and a lasting love for the people God made. By connecting families and churches with real stories, meaningful learning, and faithful ministries, we hope to help raise a generation that sees the nations with curiosity, compassion, and prayer.

Christ-Centered
Jesus Christ is the foundation of everything we do. Our mission, partnerships, and decisions are guided by Scripture and a desire to glorify God among the nations.
Prayer First
We believe prayer is one of the most powerful ways believers can participate in God’s work. Every ministry, nation, and initiative we feature is supported through intentional prayer.
