Navigator Ministries throughout the World

Many of you are acquainted with us through our wonderful Eagle Lake Camps in the Colorado Springs area and Eagle Lake On Location programs that are spread out across the country.  You may not be as familiar with The Navigators International Ministries that has been helping to introduce Jesus to those who do not know Him since 1933 and now serves more than 1,200 cross-cultural missionaries in 107 countries.

Empowered by the Holy Spirit, The Navigators’ international advancement of the Gospel overseas is done primarily through two ministries, NavMissions and Discipling for Development.  Our work of launching disciplemaking ministries across the globe and making disciples among all nations follows in the footsteps of our founder, Dawson Trotman.  The Navigators first overseas mission was to China in 1949.

As one of our U.S. international ministries, NavMissions sends Americans that wish to serve as missionaries overseas and then sustains them throughout the course of their stay.  NavMissions supports missionaries in over 50 countries, from North and South America to Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, and the Pacific.  Many of our missionaries are in areas where people have historically been resistant to the Gospel, which is why we make sure to sustain and disciple all of our overseas workers to enable them to disciple to others.  

The other major arm of our international ministries is Discipling for Development, which is dedicated to discipling people, developing communities, and transforming lives in impoverished areas throughout Africa.  Since so many of the small villages lack the required basic necessities for healthy living conditions, sufficient food, and economic hope, Discipling for Development works to transform their thinking and behavior. 

We empower the community to create their own solutions and show them how to reproduce this process in others.   It is The Navigators way of enabling people to become all that God intended for them to be instead of just simply meeting their short-term needs.
