In our globally connected world, it’s hard to imagine that more than 3 billion people have seldom or never heard the life-changing message of the gospel. That's over a third of humanity still waiting to experience the hope found in Jesus Christ.
For more than a century, Avant has been committed to reaching the unreached, planting and developing churches in areas where less than 2% of the population is evangelical Christian. Our missionaries are on the front lines — crossing cultures, learning languages, and building relationships. For each one of them, the belief and expectation that the gospel will change hearts and lives is fundamental. But the work is far from complete.
As we look to the future, we recognize the critical need for more laborers in the harvest. Jesus told us to "pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest" (Matthew 9:38). We're taking this call seriously.
In 2025, our recruitment teams will have opportunities to interact with thousands of students across the Americas, helping them discover their role in God's global work. We’re committed to encouraging, praying for, and coaching those who are being called to go.
Would you prayerfully consider a year-end gift to support our recruitment efforts? Your donation will help us identify, equip, and send the next wave of missionaries — people like Tim and Brianna Buchanan. Watch their story below to see how God is calling new laborers into His harvest.
