Our Mission

Millions of Muhammad's followers have been taught that Jesus was no more than a prophet and that He never died on the cross. Millions don’t understand that Jesus was (and is) our divine Savior. These millions desperately need hope. Crescent Project’s heart and mission is to see every Muslim have an opportunity to respond to the Gospel and be connected to a true follower of Jesus. Crises in the Middle East and in Afghanistan have forced millions out of their homes and brought them within arms reach of believers in the United States and Europe, creating opportunities for connection like never before.
