Since our humble beginnings, our work has impacted the lives of thousands of people and helped transform communities in tangible ways.
Our driving passion is to rescue lives and see communities transformed by the power of the all-encompassing gospel of the Kingdom of God. Compelled by God’s heart for the poor, the widow, the orphan and the outsider, Impact Nations goes to the most vulnerable in the developing world. We come in love as an expression of God’s compassion and power. We come alongside, working together as a family for lasting change.
IMPACT NATIONS STORY
Our first mobile medical clinic was conducted out of a suitcase under a tree in Eastern Kenya. Steve Stewart had received a divine call in 2003 to rescue lives holistically.
What started as small Journeys of Compassion (JOCs) grew into a global movement, providing medical care, clean water, vocational training, and disaster relief. By 2010, we’ve led teams to refugee camps, prisons, and impoverished communities across Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
In 2014, Impact Nations was established as a nonprofit also in the United States. Over the years, Impact Nations expanded our sustainable initiatives, empowering people through education, business training, and anti-trafficking efforts.
Despite challenges like COVID-19, relief efforts continued, and new partnerships formed. By 2024, Impact Nations has led 87 Journeys of Compassion in 19 nations, transforming countless lives.
OUR CONVICTIONS
Our work is an expression of our love and commitment to Jesus Christ. We move in compassion, and we are committed to walk in humility, forgiveness, and love.
Our goal is to provide the help needed to move individuals and communities into long-term sustainability without dependence on outside sources.
We minister openly as followers of Jesus, caring for the poor wherever we find them, regardless of religion or creed.
We understand justice to be the restoration of life as God intended. This leads us to the oppressed and disempowered of the developing world.
Therefore we clearly declare God’s gift of salvation through word, supernatural healing and practical demonstrations of compassion.
We take people into the midst of front-line activity to share the Good News, pray for the sick, and engage in acts of mercy and justice.
Jesus told us to go into all the world and make disciples, this is at the center of all we do, determining our strategies and priorities.
As a global family, we come alongside our partners, empowering local leaders as they fulfill the dreams God has given them. We equip and encourage local leaders and build their capacity to bring Kingdom transformation to their own communities.
OUR TEAM
Impact Nations is led by a passionate and experienced team dedicated to the vision of transformation. From our leadership board to our ground teams, every team member brings unique gifts to our work.
One of my greatest joys in life is to see God use the Impact Nations family to bring radical restoration to people in desperate need.” —Tim Stewart, CEO, Impact Nations
