James Kallappa - Fund

PAOC

Their story

Serving around the world

For over 40 years, James pastored in the BC & Yukon District. In 1994, he also became the first Indigenous director of PAOC Native Ministries helping to solidify Indigenous ministry initiatives across the Fellowship. James continued in that role until 2001 when he stepped down to return to his pastoral roots in his home state of Washington. Now in his mid-80’s, Brother Kallappa remains actively involved in ministry, preaching and teaching. And, to this day, (60+ years and counting!), he remains at the forefront of Christian leadership development.

Desiring to honour an elder, one who has given a lifetime of dedication to equip leaders, Mission Canada has launched the James Kallappa Indigenous Leadership Fund. This fund will be used to assist Indigenous participants of PAOC Bible College training programs as they enter ministry in their cities and communities and as seed funds for new Mission Canada initiatives to Indigenous Peoples.

Your generosity makes a difference!

Why do we partner with these Global Workers?

Simply because they know the needs on the ground.
They have been well trained, and as they work, the Holy Spirit is opening their eyes to the needs of the people there.

Our Global workers, who are our friends, give the people they meet and work with, just what they need — in many cases, even providing basic human needs.

We trust them as experts in their field and have seen their effectiveness.
They have been commissioned and sent out from our church family.
They have been entrusted and empowered to “Go”, and we desire to see the Lord work in mighty ways in and through them as they do His Kingdom Work!

We support our Global Workers every month through your generosity! In addition, here are some examples of projects/organizations we financially supported for in 2024.

This is YOUR DOLLARS AT WORK!

Why do we do this?

Because we believe that every person was created to experience and express the purest love imaginable.
Our outreach strategy includes meeting the needs of our world in very practical ways.
Through our Global Outreach Fund, we mobilize our “why” by partnering with indigenous initiatives and university ministries in our province. Internationally, we help build schools, drill freshwater wells, and respond to humanitarian disasters. We also support the personal budgets of people who feel called across the globe to serve in their country of burden. We train and send teams to go out on short-term trips to serve and give back to communities that need ministry teams. All of this is done so that those in our world can experience the purest love imaginable.

We believe that “when you go on missions, you grow in your faith!”

Together in Mission
