Medical Missions - DOVE USA

Medical Missions

The vision of DOVE Medical Missions is proclaiming Christ to the nations through medical care. Teams send medical and other personnel to work alongside local doctors, run clinics, and pray with patients.

Medical teams need more than clinicians. Alongside qualified medical personnel, they need people skilled in prayer ministry to sit with patients, and children’s workers to minister to the children who come with them. In recent years DOVE has served in Peru, Kenya, Uganda, Iraq, Haiti and Guatemala.

CHURCH PLANTING RESOURCE

Build a Budget With What You Know

A first-year church planting budget comes with plenty of unknowns. Start with what you know, estimate what you don’t, and build a financial plan you can refine as the church grows.

Start with a plan

A clear budget helps you anticipate expenses, recognize potential challenges, and make better financial decisions before they become urgent. Tracking income and expenses throughout your first year also gives you real numbers to work from when planning the next.

If administration isn’t your strength, involve someone who is gifted in it. The church planter doesn’t have to build the budget alone, but every church plant should have one.
