Global Orphan Care
Network
Lifeline’s Global Orphan Care Network exists to equip the church to manifest the gospel to vulnerable children. The GOCN seeks to accomplish this work by networking ministries, developing partners, and equipping the church. The goal is to see the relationship between the US church and international church strengthened to increase the quality and reach of gospel-centered care into the lives of vulnerable children.
Each year, hundreds of churches dedicate one Sunday to advocate and raise awareness to vulnerable children across the world.
Once you’re aware of the 140 million children, each one precious and invaluable in His sight, the church must act. But where do you start?
We would love to connect with you to understand your ministry, support your efforts to demonstrate gospel-centered care, and build a community to elevate the level of care for vulnerable children everywhere.

Valuable Resources
We have many valuable resources and materials to assist you in caring for children in a way that points them to Jesus. Below you will find some introductory examples of what our network participants have access to. Please take a moment to explore how we could serve alongside you in the calling to care for vulnerable children.
A Growing Community
The call to care for the most vulnerable is extremely challenging, and we believe that God has not called us to do it alone. Our network is meant to connect us for the purpose of encouragement, equipping, and support one another in this work. Whether it is through our private group, monthly meetings, or bi-annual conference we want those in our network to know that they are not alone, and we are truly serving alongside one another.
– Regional Zoom Meetings: Network participants in Latin America, Asia, Eurasia, and Africa meet together monthly through video calls where we discuss strategy, the implications of the gospel for our ministry, and prayer needs, building relationships to strengthen and encourage one another.
– Bi-Annual Conference: This gathering takes place bi-annually allowing for in-person training, testimonies, and encouragement.
A Global Perspective
Our effort is not to provide all of the answers to the questions and needs that arise through orphan-care. We believe that we can learn ways to improve the way we care and demonstrate the gospel through the wisdom and insight God has given all of our partners. We believe that we are better together!
