About International Cooperating Ministries
International Cooperating Ministries (ICM) exists to develop the global Church for effective evangelism in least-reached nations. We do this by equipping indigenous Christians with two main resources for sharing the Gospel: funds for building permanent churches and discipleship materials for oral learners in their heart language. By empowering indigenous ministries that are already established and proven in the field, we’ve created a leveraged, sustainable, grassroots model for reaching the entire world for Jesus Christ within our lifetime. Our mission: to nurture believers and assist Church growth worldwide. Our vision: to see a healthy church within walking distance of everyone in the world.
What “Most Trusted” Means
Most Trusted is our highest designation, reflecting the full convergence of Christian stewardship, public transparency, and independently confirmed operational excellence. This ministry has been verified against all fifteen criteria of The Most Trusted Standard — every standard in our framework, across all four pillars of faith foundation, financial integrity, governance, and transparency.
Beyond meeting our baseline standards and demonstrating comprehensive public accountability, this ministry has been independently evaluated against rigorous nonprofit performance benchmarks and confirmed to operate at the highest standard in its sector.
