About Sanma

Page6-2

Established in 1998, Sanma is a Grand Prairie, Texas based 501 (c) 3 organization that designs and implements programs that help build sustainable communities and ministries through occupational Christian missions.

Missions outlined here have helped people realize their value, potential, and the abilities that God has placed in them. These, however, are not any preset model for anyone to follow. You can do similar things according to the situations you face. You don’t need an organization to do mission work. We are honored to be a channel for you to reach the people with the light of the gospel. Anyone can do missions work. Even in your own backyard or hometown.

WHO WE ARE

True stories are beautiful. The truest one that you write is your own.

We are a small, passionate organization based in Grand Prairie, Texas that found ways to help people to inspire others with their own stories. We do, and support missions that empower people with the truth and equip them with the tools to make a living.
Our work was organized as a legal entity in 1998, giving us a more structured method, and giving a chance for you to join in. Through the twenty-five years past, we are seeing, and learning of the power of the gospel, applied through Occupational Missions to help people solve problems where they begin. This site is an effort to make known of the truth we found and to share with you what we learn.

Intentions of good policies such as welfare, and practices of charity come alive when applied with missions. This is the fundamental difference of who we are: freedom and independence through Gospel missions brings out the best in you. The freedom that the world promises keep you in confusion, in confinement. This was the story of the Samaritan woman. She thought she lived her life well and in freedom, but found herself in confusion and discontent, even bitterness. The gospel of Jesus Christ brings her freedom. None is more attractive than a person who’s set free by the truth.

Equipping the less resourced women, child laborer families, and missionaries with the tools to make a living, and to live out the gospel, Sanma Occupational Missions present a Christian approach to the problems of our world.

WHY GOSPEL MISSIONS?

Because, an unworthy, timid force traps human lives into inescapable, eternal destruction. This tragedy happens every day, and it obstructs the progress of humanity. Gospel missions wage war against this force. On its side is a lone voice. Though shaky and feeble at times, it’s the voice of the truth that brings out something beautiful that was never there before; a liberated you. This spectacle occurs each time the gospel of Jesus Christ enters a life. In a world that makes people feeble minded, the gospel missions build up people with the mind of Christ! None is more powerful than a person who has the mind of Christ.

If the depth of a story is measured by the underlying conflict, the gospel missions deal with the greatest of all; man at odds with God. With no one to be found capable to negotiate a deal, the Cross of Christ set the table. And reconciliation was made possible. Gospel missions show love that is more than a feeling.
