We Are Not Asking You To Fund Our Mission
Dear Churches, Pastors and Christian Organizations:
Answer the Need is NOT presenting this ministry/mission to you hoping you will take us on as you would a missionary. In addition, we DO NOT receive any compensation, commissions or kickbacks from any organizations or Christian groups for promoting them to you.
We are not undertaking the burden that God has given us in order to make money. All we want to do is bring Christian persecution into the light for mainstream churches and congregations around the world so that we can do more to stop it.
Please take some time and go through this website. We know that you are busy and have so much on your plate already. That is why we would like to help you present this to your church or Christian organization.
Give us a call or send us an email. We will figure out how we can best serve you. Thank you.
Now That We Have Your Attention!!

Answer the Need's Mission
Our Mission Statement at Answer the Need is simple:
-
To bring Christ's church into full awareness regarding the persecution of Christians throughout the world.
-
Begin a new ministry in every church that springs forth from a burden deep in the hearts of believers.
Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body”(Heb. 13:3).
To accomplish the task that God has laid on our hearts, we will provide you with the type of resources needed to keep you apprised of what is happening to Christians in places far removed from your local communities.
Here you will find links to movies, pictures and stories of people who go to their own houses of worship with an umbrella of fear hanging over them as they do; a fear of punishment, beatings and death.
However, do not make a mistake; America is not immune to Christian persecution. We will also make available information so you can see firsthand how people and organizations are trying to remove our Christian roots and way of life. If we are not careful, we may soon be meeting underground as well.
As with any ministry, organizations somewhere need to receive support in order to keep the mission alive. Answer the Need is not and will not be asking you to send us donations. Why send money to us, when you can send it directly to the organizations that best know how to utilize the funds.
That's how our Huddled and Hurting project was born. You can find out more about this much-needed project by going to Huddled and Hurting. Everything you need to get started in this ministry is right there.
The section titled, How Scripture Opened Our Eyes, will show you the verses that God placed before us, which in turn started this journey.
