Village Impact India
Since 2015 we have been running Child Sponsorships, in partnership with the orphanage’s founders, Ps Frank & Gladys Godberg, in Kolar Gold Fields, India. This partnership supports over 100 children across three orphanages in the state of Karnataka, India, as well as support children in impoverished families. There are two boy’s homes, one in Robertsonpet and Kannur Village, and a girl home in Bangarapet.
The potential of these beautiful children continually touches our hearts. We have high expectations of what God will do with a Christ-centered education in India. Sponsorship donations go towards full-time accommodation for each child, daily meals, school education, medical care, and most importantly giving the children the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Village Impact Tanzania
Since 2005, we have been running Village Impact Sponsorships in Magugu, Tanzania, following a long-standing relationship with missionaries Ps Alan & Linda Stephenson, who answered the call to Africa in 1988. What began with over 200 monthly sponsorships has grown to support countless children in both primary and secondary school with essential needs and Christ-centered education.
This village continues to capture our hearts. We believe in the power of raising up future Christian leaders, with many students going on to complete teaching degrees. Sponsorship donations provide daily meals, school uniforms, quality education, and most importantly, the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Click here to sponsor.

India
Our Health Clinics in Kolar Gold Fields, Bhadravathi and Chennai, provide free health care to locals who are extremely poor and cannot afford primary but lifesaving medical care. Your sponsorship donations enable us to keep the Health Clinics stocked with critical medical supplies, equipment, staff, and fund the building of future clinics in remote villages. India has rapidly become a nation has penalised & imprisoned Christians from openly sharing the gospel, so these medical clinics have become a critical part of sharing Christian hope in both action & words.

Nepal
Our 16 Health Clinics in Nepal have offered practical and medical help to over 10,000 people. Our desire is that local church would be established at each location to support the local villagers that come to Christ as a result of our efforts. In 2021, in the villages near these clinics, Ps Govinder led over 60 families to Christ, and saw people literally raised from the dead. Your sponsorship donations enable us to keep the Health Clinics stocked with critical medical supplies, equipment, staff, and fund the building of future clinics in remote villages.

India | Philippines | Mexico | Tonga | Fiji
City Impact Church has over 72 Mission Campuses throughout India, Philippines, Mexico, Tonga and now Fiji. These pastors are our family, and the reality is they usually have no personal income, and sometimes no food for their own families, yet they give everything they have to anyone who comes to the church with a need. The monthly sponsorship will ensure they always have a regular monthly income. Our Missions Campus pastors have a desire to reach out and plant campuses in other local villages that do not yet have a local church, and therefore we play a vital part in extending their reach.
If you would like to play a role in furthering the work of City Impact Church through these amazing Mission Campus Pastors, we have two options of sponsoring them for $50 or $100 per month. Click here to sponsor.

Our heart has always been to care for those in need, and over the years, our Community Impact has grown to reflect that.
In 2019, we launched The Pantry, an in-house initiative that provides food and groceries to families doing it tough. It is a practical way we can support people facing hardship and let them know they are not alone.
In 2020, we expanded our reach with the Here to Help campaign, created in response to the COVID-19 lockdown. This initiative supported individuals and families on a case-by-case basis with groceries and essential supplies during an uncertain time. We are excited that Here to Help continues to run today, offering practical support to those in need beyond lockdown.
Together, these initiatives are part of our ongoing commitment to serving and strengthening our community.
If you would like to play a role in furthering the work of City Impact Church through these amazing initiatives, we have two options for sponsorship — $50 or $100 per month. Your support helps us continue making a real difference in people’s lives. Click here to sponsor.
In 2013, we partnered with Ps Frank and Gladys Godberg and launched City Impact Church India. Ps Frank and Gladys are involved with Missions work across three states; Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, and Andhra Pradesh. This work includes 56 local Churches, three children’s homes, and a medical clinic that have all been founded by Ps Frank & Gladys. In 2015 we were thrilled to extend the Village Impact initiative to include the hundreds of children in the three children’s homes. It was a thrill to help Ps Frank & Gladys pioneer their first medical clinic. Since then, we have built another two medical clinics. These medical clinics serve as a critical outreach to the surrounding low-income families that cannot afford primary medical care.

For over two decades we’ve continued to be involved in the nation of Mexico. Our ministry and outreach is in Baja, working with four local Mission Campuses in La Paz, Marquez De Leon, San Jose & Cabo San Lucas. We have a long term partnership with our local pastors Jorge & Yolanda, Alejandro & Yadira, and Benny & Marychuy. Each of our pastors are involved in extending the gospel throughout the region. As a Church, we help sponsor poor Mexican families through these local churches. We also send regular mission teams to volunteer in medical clinics, local outreaches, and building projects.
As a Church, our outreach initiatives in the Philippines have continued since the early 1990s. In 2015, we increased our outreach into the nation with Ps Fortune & Roselyn in Tagum City, Mindanao. Ps Fortune & Roselyn have established City Impact Church Philippines which includes 10 church plants in Tagum City, Compostela, Montevista, Monkayo, Maparat, Laak, Bislig, Mawab, and New Bataan, with more church plants in the pipeline. We know that through this local church partnership, we will continue to see influential and healthy local churches established throughout the Philippines.
In 2005, we sent our first missions team of 25 volunteers to the Island of Vava’u for ten days to build a church building for Pastors Havili and Mele. In 2009, we sent another team to build an extension to accommodate their rapid growth. Then in 2012, a group of 20 volunteers was sent to City Impact Church Nuku’alofa to construct a new building for Pastor Aisea. A team of twenty also went back to Vava’u to paint the local hospital and school, run medical clinics and run an outreach programme in the local villages. We are thrilled to be able to support City Impact Churches in Tonga in a practical way.
Since the year 2000, we have successfully built 37 health clinics across the southwestern regions of China and across the border into Myanmar.
We also operate 12 Medical Clinics across Nepal, providing essential healthcare services in remote villages where access is extremely limited. Many of these villages in Nepal have very limited access to medical care. Missionaries are collaborating with locals to establish Christian Medical Clinics in these areas. These clinics serve over 40,000 people per year, addressing not only their physical needs but also sharing the love of God with them. In some places, villagers can now access medical help within an hour’s walk—whereas, before these clinics, it would have taken days of walking through the mountains to reach any medical assistance.
Jews for Jesus is a Christian organization that shares the message that Jesus is the promised Messiah of the Jewish people. Founded in 1973, the group exists to help Jewish people and others explore faith in Jesus while honoring Jewish identity and heritage.
Community Impact Days are when we show God’s love to our communities in a practical way. Each Community Impact Day we mobilise over 700 volunteers around New Zealand to carry out cleaning, gardening, painting and maintenance for individuals, families and community organisations in our areas. We regularly see people’s homes and lives transformed as a result of what we do. Check out our Community Impact page for more.
Church member Simon Cornwall heads up a team of dedicated volunteers who take the Gospel through relationship into the Prisons of our nation. The team runs training courses to equip prison inmates with practical tools to become better fathers, husbands and contributors to society. We also help to support Simon with the Recovery First initiative for men who are in the community after incarceration, as well as his “Steps to Recovery” program which rehabilitates men with addictions.
City Impact Church member Di Willis and previously her late husband, Hugh Willis, have been working tirelessly with people who have disabilities since 1976. They have set up a support centre in Royal Oak that enables disabled people to connect with each other and provides an environment where they are supported and encouraged. They now have 25 centres throughout New Zealand and also run an annual camp. We also support them by sending volunteers to Elevate camp each year.
