Operation Mobilization
Starting from a college friendship and a trip to Mexico, Operation Mobilization grew out of a love, desire, and call from God to share Christ’s love and truth to the nations. Over the decades, our commitment to those who do not know God’s love has translated into a multitude of ways to share God’s love—from ministries serving refugees and the vulnerable, to international youth events and Christian art programs, to a ship that travels the world to share God’s love and serve communities in need. We strive to creatively shine the light of Christ in all we say and do, so that Christ’s love may reach the farthest corners of the world.
