Within the World Orphans culture, we know that we are called to be students of God’s Word in the communities where we serve, and we know that we will continue to learn and grow as an organization. With over 25 years of experience, there are a few areas where we believe we are able to help others learn about excellence in ministry. We invite you to look through the topics below, and contact us if you would like to have one of our team speak at your next online or in person event.
Church Partnership
Church partnership is the model that we use to fascilitate care for vulnerable families. We are happy to share about the values we have outlined that include topics like learning over teaching, relationship over resources, and reciprocity over control. We believe these values help to establish a long-lasting, Christ-centered partnership.

Family Preservation
Eight out of every ten children living in an orphanage have a living parent, but are given up in large part due to poverty. Our model is focused on family preservation, which prevents children from ever being orphaned in the first place. Family preservation provides a wholistic approach to caring for children in families.
Mobilization
Our mobilization team is dedicated to sending short-term mission trips with excellence, specifically seeking to honor the cultures where we visit, building lasting relationships, and empowering team members toward lifelong advocacy on behalf of the vulnerable.
Refugee ministry
World Orphans has served Northern Iraq since 2009. When ISIS brought terror to Iraq, we were uniquely positioned to provide the best refugee care possible. Working with the local government, we built micro-camps to serve different ethnic groups, provided education, medical care, and pathways back to independence for refugee families.
wholistic care
There are many forms of orphan care, but none better than caring for the whole child in a family. World Orphans works through the local church, taking a wholistic approach to caring for children physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. We want to see children restored to innocence, joy, and delight.
