Links is a network of personal connections between missionaries and Nazarene districts around the world.
Participating missionaries are assigned to districts to help foster a personal connection between missionaries and the local church. A Links relationship fosters a sense of involvement with Nazarene Missions through regular correspondence from missionaries, updates from their field of service, and presentations by their Links missionary when they are on home assignment.

Here are some ways you can support our LINKS Missionaries:
• Sending an email or e-card is a great way to let our missionaries know that they are in our thoughts and prayers. However, Sending physical letters or packages are discouraged unless the missionary has a specific need and requests the items be shipped. Districts and churches are encouraged to coordinate with missionaries when they are on home assignment, rather than shipping items to their country of service. Physical package can have very expensive duties that the missionary has to pay when receiving your package. Please, always ask the missionary before mailing anything.
• When giving a financial gift, the best ways are:
-Through the missionary’s unique giving link. This is the preferred, and quickest, method, because the
funds are directly allocated to their account.
-Through your local church. The church’s treasurer can send funds through Funding the Mission or a
physical check to the Global Ministries Center, with the missionary’s name in the memo.
-Sending a check to the Global Ministries Center, and made out to the Church of the Nazarene, with the missionary’s name in the memo (do NOT write the check to the missionary).
Please do not give a missionary a cash or personal check offering. That is still taxable income for a missionary, and you would need to provide a 1099 tax form to assist the missionary in their end-of-year taxes.
