Builders International was founded on the two-fold vision of building Bible Schools in every nation of the world and lifting up the arms of the missionaries on the field to assist them with construction projects.
We provide missionaries and national churches with the expertise and resources required to plan, implement and build construction projects worldwide. Builders International strives to be innovative and effective in its impact on building projects around the globe.
Our vision is simple and straightforward:
To build facilities that help carry the Gospel to all nations.
Facilities are vital to meet the rapidly growing needs of the global church and to train leaders for the future. We believe every construction project is more than a building — it is a catalyst to fulfill God’s Commission to reach the world with the Gospel.
We cannot complete this task without your help. Your skills are crucial to help us make this possible. The opportunities to partner with us range from joining an overseas construction team to remaining stateside and helping design an international project.
Frequently Asked Questions:
I am a missionary and would like help starting the construction process. How can Builders International help me?
Our calling is to assist you in the process of planning and implementing construction projects. This help can include sending in teams, drafting, or pre-construction planning and construction site assessment. Our goal is to simplify the construction process for you in effective and innovative ways, so you can fulfill the vision God has laid on your heart for the ministry He has put in your care.
I understand there is a new Director of Builders International. What can you tell me about him?
The Director of Builders International is Ryan Moore. He is leading the charge as we move forward with the vision of helping to complete vital construction projects around the world. Ryan is a former U.S. Navy man and a civil engineer with a huge heart for the Lord. His new methods and forthright attitude are a perfect fit for the renewed direction of Builders International. We are excited about this new season of Builders International under his selfless guidance and God led leadership!
What’s the difference between Builders International and MAPS Construction?
There’s not one! The Assemblies of God World Missions merged BI and MAPS in 2009 in an effort to create a streamlined, focused ministry that can meet the construction needs on the mission field and efficiently connect missions resources with the opportunities. In John L. Bueno’s words, “It is our desire to create a new proactive ministry that would streamline the way in which we lead and minister; enabling missionaries, pastors, churches, and construction teams to be more efficient and effective in the use of people and resources”
Is Builders International directly associated with the Assemblies of God?
Yes we are. Builders International is under the umbrella of Assemblies of God World Missions. We are blessed with their leadership and honored to be a part of the worldwide fellowship of 60 million and growing.
Does Builders International build only internationally?
Yes. Our focus is on mission projects outside of the United States. The Assemblies of God utilizes U.S. MAPS to serve on projects within the States. Visit their website.
