mission partners
At Storyhill, we are passionate about partnering with others to extend the hope and mercy of Jesus beyond our local community. Through partnerships with trusted mission-driven organizations, we support work that shares the Gospel, cares for the vulnerable, and equips communities for lasting transformation in Jesus’ name. A portion of every tithe and offering given to Storyhill is dedicated to assisting our mission partners in their vital work. Whether through global outreach, church planting, or local service initiatives, our mission partners embody the heart of God’s love, and we are honored to come alongside them. Together, we seek to make Jesus known and see lives renewed in our community and beyond.
