Become a Waymaker Church
As Covenant World Relief & Development celebrates 80 years of compassion in action, we are calling churches to become Waymaker Churches—those who honor the past and make way for the future. Waymaker Churches will host a CWRD Sunday annually and sign up to receive a resource kit each October (bulletins, posters, videos, and more). Join a growing movement of churches preparing the way for what God will do next!
Celebration Gala & Film Premiere
Join us Sunday, January 25, 2026, in Chicago for an evening honoring 80 years of transformation through Covenant World Relief and Development. We’ll honor the past, celebrate transformation, hear powerful stories, and envision a hopeful future together.
