CRI at a glance

Sharing the light of Christ with the poor

Our journey as an organization began when Alan and Melody Pieratt returned from a decade of missionary service in Brazil. While on furlough in late 1999, they felt called to start a mission working among the poor and enabling native missionaries with a heart for their people.

The first meeting of the board of directors took place in March of 2000. Since then, CRI has grown from one ministry in Mozambique to more than a dozen, from one staff member to more than 50, and from one program that delivers aid to more than 20.

Items were selected by CRI’s missionaries and our partners. Every single donations, regardless of the amount, is deeply appreciated and makes a significant difference in the work.
