Who We Are

We are called to WIN the lost to Jesus, SERVE the poor and less fortunate, and INSPIRE God's People. It is the very core of who we are and what we are passionate about doing.

Win The Lost

At the heart of our mission is a relentless passion to see lives transformed by the Gospel. Through citywide campaigns, grassroots outreaches, and equipping local evangelists, we are reaching those who have never heard. Every decision for Christ is not just a number — it’s a soul rescued, a life forever changed, and a light ignited to shine for generations.

Serve The Poor

We believe love must be lived, not just spoken. That’s why A Light to the Nations stands with the poor and vulnerable — bringing food, education, and hope to those who need it most. From war-torn regions to villages scarred by poverty, we meet urgent needs while building long-term sustainability, always through the local church.

Inspire God's People

We believe the church is called to live in the fullness of the Spirit — bold, passionate, and unafraid. By inspiring believers to see themselves as Christ sees them, we equip the church to stand strong and transform communities.

Our History

Get to know more about what makes us different.

The story of A Light to the Nations began in the summer of 1984. After completing a cross-country run from Plymouth Rock, MA, to Los Angeles, CA, to promote the Year of the Bible during the Olympics, our founder, Dana Morey, was driving home through the desert. Late one night, alone in an old pickup truck, Dana sensed the voice of God stirring in his heart: “Begin a ministry to tell the world about the wonderful love of Jesus.”

When he asked the Lord what to call it, the answer came through one of his dearest passages of Scripture, Isaiah 42:5–7. Pulling to the side of the road, he opened his Bible and read the words: “I will appoint You as a covenant to the people, as a light to the nations, to open blind eyes, to bring out prisoners from the dungeon and those who dwell in darkness.”

"From that moment, the calling was clear. The name was not just a title, but a destiny."

Since then, A Light to the Nations has existed to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ, minister to the poor and hurting, and inspire the church to rise up in boldness. Using the resources God provides, we are committed to winning souls, serving the needy, and equipping believers to become everything God has designed them to be. This is not just what we do — it is who we are.
