Every year during our annual Global Impact Weekend, we highlight how God is working around the world and invite you to provide financial support for a specific project. These projects, chosen in cooperation with trusted members of our global staff and partners, help expand the Church, develop leaders, and share the hope of Jesus.
Below are a few recent examples of the impact your generosity has made.

2021 – Marketplace Ministry in West Africa
GOAL
To support a Business as Mission training center that provides leadership development and executive coaching to business leaders in a city where less than 1% of the population are Christ-followers.
IMPACT
Fairhaven’s gift of nearly $70,000 fully funded the center for three years, allowing them to expand their reach and impact. These funds were especially crucial during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, helping cover expenses when income was limited.
- Sustained center operations during a period of low revenue
- Funded marketing efforts to grow visibility in the business community
- Expanded facilities and added two part-time staff members
- Hosted leadership seminars, mastermind groups, team-building sessions, and executive coaching
To date, over 500 leaders have been influenced through the center, many introduced to servant leadership, ethics, and the hope of Jesus. The gospel has been shared openly, Bibles distributed, and prayer offered for the sick and those seeking wisdom.
This center is the only known outreach to the middle- and upper-class business community in a city of 4 million where 95% are non-Christian. Your generosity helped sustain and advance this vital ministry.
