Mission

Christar exists to glorify God by establishing churches among least-reached peoples worldwide.

Glorify God

We exist, intentionally, to bring honor and glory to God.

Establishing Churches

We understand that we may bring honor to God by establishing churches where they do not exist. We are a “church-planting” organization. All that we do should contribute to establishing churches where there were none before.

Least-Reached

This refers to people who have no access to a church in their own language, culture or in proximity to where they live.

Vision

The Vision of Christar is to cultivate Christ-honouring transformation in communities where He is yet to be worshipped.

Christ-Honoring Transformation

Transformation speaks to the process as well as the outcome. In the establishment of indigenous churches we pursue a Christ-honoring influence on the community at large.

As workers who partner with God in His work, we are a part of the transformation process that God is bringing about. God’s promise in Revelation 5:9 is clear.

People from every tongue, tribe, people and nation will worship God in eternity. Our vision is to go to those people who are not accounted for in the eternal roll call of nations!
