At Circle of Concern we love to help ministries who are earnestly trying to make a difference and need the extra help or support.
Throughout the past 20+ years, Circle of Concern has helped to impact communities and plant churches in several areas of Mexico. We have established strong relationships with church planters and ministry leaders which allows us to tailor what we do to help, to make a difference in their community.
We love to bring teams to work alongside our partners for a cross cultural experience that blesses both the team member and our partner. Whether it be free eyeglass clinics, feeding, praying, hosting children’s program, taking family photos, installing a playground, or light construction and painting, we will do it.
Circle of Concern also have the discretion to help individuals locally and internationally; a single mom needing a utility bill paid, someone who needs a wheelchair but can’t afford one. The kind of need that arises, whose problems are urgent and may seem “too small” for many organizations.

We are also advocates, speaking out and providing a voice and presence where children need advocacy, are vulnerable and at-risk, and deeply in need of God’s love.
