"Missions exists because worship does not." John Piper rightly helps us understand the purpose behind missions. At Ardena, we desire to serve and support mission agencies and missionaries whose goal is to make worshipers of Jesus Christ. Throughout Scripture, we see God's passion and desire that all people and nations be reached with the good news of Jesus Christ. Jesus has given us the command to "go and make disciples of all nations" in Matthew 28:19-20, and so we desire to be part of God's redemptive plan.

"After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no
one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and
languages, standing before the Lamb...and crying out with a loud voice,
'Salvation, belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the
Lamb.'" - Revelation 7:9-10
