Global Outreach
The Church, Connected Around the World
In every nation, local churches and Christian organizations are serving their neighbors and sharing the hope of Christ. Many do it quietly, far from the spotlight, and some at real personal risk.
Serve Source stands behind them, strengthening the relationships and shared tools that help the Church serve together.
Each pulse marks a place where the Church is at work. Country map pins are not linked to an organization or a person. Disaster Response locations are shared only when a partner has chosen to make them public.
What Is the 10/40 Window?
The 10/40 Window is the region between 10° and 40° north of the equator, stretching from the west coast of Africa across the Middle East and into Asia.
It is home to a large share of the world’s people, and to many of the communities with the least access to the Gospel and to a local church.
Least reached
Many communities in the Window have few followers of Christ, and little or no access to Scripture in their own language.
Limited access
In many countries open ministry is restricted. The people serving there often do so quietly, and at personal cost.
Led from within
Lasting change comes through believers who already live there. They know the language, the culture, and the need.
Serve Source Partners
Partners Supporting the 10/40 Window
These Serve Source Partners support work in the 10/40 Window. Where they serve, and how, stays with them.
“Go and make disciples of all nations.”
Jesus’ Great Commission calls His followers to “go and make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19–20). We believe that calling is lived out through traditional ministry, and also wherever the Church enters a community with the hope of Christ, including in moments of disaster, crisis, and deep community need.
For Serve Source, connection, communication, and collaboration are never ends in themselves. They are infrastructure in service of a larger purpose: equipping the Church to respond when communities are hurting, strengthening Christian leaders and organizations to serve together, making the local Church a visible source of hope, and creating opportunities for people to encounter the love and Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We cannot know when or where the next crisis will come. We do believe the Church should be ready, relationally, operationally, and technologically, when it does. Our role is to help build that readiness before the moment arrives, and to support those who serve when it does.
A Backbone for the Church Worldwide
Serve Source is a connective and supportive backbone organization. We do not replace, direct, or compete with the organizations serving around the globe. We undergird them, strengthening what holds their work together so they can serve with greater clarity and impact.
Trusted relationships
We build and keep relationships with churches, ministries, and nonprofits working in many regions, so the right people can find and trust one another.
Shared tools
Mapping, communication, and coordination technology built for local and global leaders, without asking anyone to give up control of their own mission.
Shared awareness
When an earthquake, flood, or conflict strikes, partners can see who is responding and where help is still needed, so effort is not duplicated or missed.
Connected resources
We help connect people, funding, and practical help to credible efforts, and help those efforts be seen by the people who want to support them.
Lasting knowledge
What partners learn is kept, not lost, so each response and each partnership makes the next one stronger.
Every organization keeps its own calling. Serve Source simply helps the body work as one.
Protecting Our Partners
Connections within the 10/40 Window are intentionally obscured to protect partner organizations and the individuals who serve there.
Serve Source builds relationships with organizations working in many regions. We do not keep private, non-public locations, and we only share what an organization has chosen to make public. In restricted-access countries, that is often very little, by design.

International Disasters Our Partners Have Responded To
When disaster strikes far from home, local churches and ministries are already on the ground. This is not an exhaustive list of international disasters.
Connecting Needs and Resources
The Backbone Behind the Supply Chain
Serve Source does not own or operate warehouses. Our partners do the work of storing, sorting, and shipping relief supplies, and they remain fully in charge of their own operations.
Our role is to be the connective backbone that helps them serve with greater clarity, trust, and impact: we help partners share what is needed and what is available, so trusted organizations can find each other, work together, and match needs with resources quickly.
