World Gospel Mission (WGM) is an interdenominational Christian missionary agency headquartered in Marion, Indiana, United States.
Aligned with the Wesleyan-Holiness tradition (Methodist) of Protestantism, WGM was founded on 10 June 1910 in University Park, Iowa as the Missionary Department of the National Association for the Promotion of Holiness.
Missionaries raise the funds needed to pay for salaries, housing, medical and life insurance, children’s educations, and retirement.
[7] Along with mobilizing volunteers and missionaries, WGM provides a list of Projects, which are crowdfunded opportunities that correspond to needs in specific locations.
After a number of moves in the Chicago area, the headquarters relocated permanently to Marion, Indiana in a former YMCA building at Fifth and Boots Street.
[16] By 1975, the headquarters had moved from downtown Marion to a newly built campus a few miles east, where it remains today.
