FARMS
Farming is a ministry outlet that provides food to the needy, teaches self-sufficiency
and supports ongoing missions.
For World Missionary Evangelism, the beginnings of farming ministry began with Dr. Reginald
Courts, a missionary who partnered with founder Dr. John E. Douglas, Sr. in India. Dr. Courts
purchased land for farming and engaged in some original work on irrigation farming. His work
was so successful that locals named a boulevard after him.
Farming is good. The Biblical principle is that if a man shall not work, neither shall he eat. Many
peoples in foreign lands cannot get work, and so they do not eat. Farming ministry helps to
resolve this issue and provides people with valuable skills. Its benefits include reducing costs
of missions support, promoting local industry and instructing people in self-sufficiency.
Opportunities for farming ministry are as diverse as the countries we touch.
WME has previously supported the use of farms, but the farming ministry is taking on new life
under a fresh, invigorated management philosophy.
