About Us
Vision & Mission
Samaritan Servants International endeavors to rescue people as Jesus mandated in Luke 10. The Samaritan, in the story, immediately stopped and ministered to the man’s physical need - while others saw it, passed by, and did nothing. People need the HELP, and they need us to stop and help them. Some desperately just need food and water, some need shelter, some need medical assistance, and some need to be rescued from danger. Delivering these needs in the name of Jesus is our desire. Giving hope for life and then hope for eternal life is what we do. We love to BLESS and we wish to BUILD as well. While we can BLESS multitudes, we realize that we can BUILD only a relative few at a time.
We support the ministries of nationals and assist them however we are led of God. All over the world people are crying out for help. We have experienced, time after time, that God connects us as laborers to those who are seeking, not only physical help, but God's redemption.
We are humbled that Christians would choose to partner with us in these efforts. Please, pray for us, and consider how you may be involved. We do not ask for continuous support, but, rather, ask that donors give to specific projects and needs as they are presented.
Our overhead cost is covered by one donor. Your gifts go 100% to the need or project you designate it to.
“If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for he that is higher than the highest regardeth; …”
Ecclesiastes. 5:8

We identify nationals with gifts of leadership and allow donors the opportunity to send financial gifts to help sustain and develop their ministries.
When you partner with SSI, you will always have the option to designate your gifts very specifically.
In summary, and to state again:
We extend help to the poor, the outcast, and the persecuted. We are motivated by the Holy Spirit and the commands in Gods’ Word...
“Deliver the poor and needy: ….”
“The righteous considereth the cause of the poor:…”
We follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. We observe and consider people and places where poverty is real and where there is need for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Drought, disease, war, corruption, and all forms of evil have left people destitute and desperate. We cannot pass by, we must stop and consider!
SSI volunteers step out by faith to provide immediate assistance with a purpose to always leave eternal hope.
