She Has the Drive. She Just Needs an Opportunity

The Story

What if helping one woman provide for her family could also help bring the hope of Christ to her community?

Across Africa, hardworking women are eager to provide for their families and grow as disciple-makers. Through locally led initiatives, your partnership equips women with practical training, access to small business loans, and biblical discipleship that transforms families and communities.

Meet one Woman.

A mother of five once walked door to door selling homemade juice, working tirelessly yet struggling to provide for her family. One two-day discipleship and entrepreneurship training changed her trajectory.

"That program gave me hope again. It helped me see that I had potential - and that my life could change."

Today she runs her own business, trains other women, and has helped see Discovery Bible Studies and house churches multiply in her community.

Imagine the Story Repeated 460 Times:

This August, your partnership will help strengthen ministries serving 460 women. Each woman represents a family, a future, and an opportunity for the Gospel to spread naturally through relationships.

How Your Gift Helps:

• $37 - Help with seed capital for one Woman. 
• $50 - Help provide training materials and ministry resources.
• $75 - Train one woman in a two-day discipleship and entrepreneurship session.
• $100 - Fund a typical first business loan.
• $1,000 - Fully fund one women's group serving about 30 women.

Why this works:

Appleseed combines practical ministry initiatives with Discovery Bible Study and disciple-making. Sustainable livelihoods strengthen families, while God's Word transforms lives and multiplies disciples.

Transformational Outcomes:

• A funded women's group in Rwanda grew into 120 women gathering around God's Word, with dozens of Bible storytelling groups in homes.
• A training participant in Tanzania went on to train dozens of other women and help catalyze new believers and disciple-making groups.

Background

The simple church network across Africa has seen thousands of people baptized and is committed to spiritual transformation through disciple-making movements.

With your help, these teams have been trained and supported to reach families across different countries. Meeting different physical needs has proved very effective in providing access to communities and building relationships that lead to sharing the gospel. This year, we are strengthening initiatives for women in Rwanda and Tanzania that need support to grow their families and impact their communities. You can help women to create livelihoods that impact their families and communities with the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Join What God Is Doing

Your gift is not simply funding loans or training sessions. It is helping women become faithful providers, leaders, and disciple-makers who influence their families and communities for Christ.

Together we can help 460 women take their next step.
