ETW Programs:
In 2007, Encouraging the World originated in the mind of its founder during a mountain hike in Cyprus. Since its conception, Encouraging the World (ETW) has worked in orphanages, juvenile homes, schools, and churches throughout the world.
ETW began in Bethlehem working with the Al-Harah Theater Group and Contacting the World. ETW choreographed and co-directed Facehook?!, currently touring the Middle East and Europe. This work aims to communicate the lives and struggles of Arab youth through music, dance, and drama.
ETW has launched several projects in the Philippines to serve orphan and juvenile communities, recruiting 50 volunteers from Thailand, Baltimore, Holland, and the Philippines. These projects included tree plantings, clothing drives, hosting a “Nutrition Month” for an elementary school, and feeding an indigenous community of 600 children and families.
In 2013, ETW was incorporated in Baltimore, Maryland and founded with a vision to offer youth volunteer community revitalization projects, awareness of global competence, international excursions, mentoring, youth leadership and conflict resolution programming.
In 2014, ETW Baltimore Youth served The Children's Light Ministries Orphanage and facilitated programming to support the build their home extension, hosted a youth sexual education workshop, and taught English to children 5 - 18 years old. ETW Baltimore Youth were empowered by facilitating and sharpening their leadership skills.Encouraging the World was presented with:
2013 BMe Leadership Award
2014 Ambassador of Peace by the Universal Peace Federation

New Campus Mission Team to China--September, 2008!
We're sending this newsletter to friends, campus ministers and churches around the world to let you know about the new campus mission team to China.
This team is unusual in that it is the first time non-Chinese disciples from International Churches of Christ around the world have an opportunity to be part of an organized, church-sponsored, long-term evangelistic effort in China.
Please pray for the team. The first "wave" of six disciples is slated to arrive in September, 2008, God willing, with more disciples to follow later.
If you know of others who might be well-suited to join us for a year in China, have them contact disciples4china@gmail.com.

2 Postings - Ministry Leaders Needed
This message is from a disciple in Pennsylvania, USA
"My sector in the Poconos (part of West Jersey Ministry) is small and needs all the financial and spiritual encouragement we can get! We are starting to turn things around, but, as of right now.....we don't have any deacon couples or evangelists! Just a few brave souls trying to build the Kingdom in the boonies of Pennsylvania! What we desperately need is older, maturer couples to disciple these young marrieds with kids! If you know any strong leadership couples looking to go and serve fulltime in a small ministry and help them grow, please let me know."
Please email encouragingtheworld@gmail.com
This message is from a disciple in Europe
"My dream is to one day (not to far from now) get to see (possibly be part of) church being restored in Slovenia. There is one sister that really wants to be part of the church (she travels to other countries to get some fellowship. So still up to now there is no leader there. Most of the (young) people speak English."

Encouraging The World!!!!!!! The START
A nonprofit organization in the works by Cirron Greenidge.
I was inspired to start this while I was visiting the church in Cyprus. Interning in the ministry in the Middle East has opened my eyes! I've traveled to many churches and I see the need for encouragement in the small church communities.
The organization will primarily focus on fundraising to send men and women to small churches communities.
