Our Vision and Mission

The Vision of RISE International is to work together to rebuild lives and communities, reflecting Jesus' charge to love others as we love ourselves.

Our Mission is to partner with Angolan churches, community leaders and government officials to build primary schools in rural Angola.


"If we work upon marble, it will perish. If we work upon brass, time will efface it. If we rear temples, they will crumble to dust. But, if we work upon men's immortal minds, if we imbue them with high principles, with the just fear of God, with love of their fellow men, we engrave on those tablets something which no time can efface and which will brighten and brighten to all eternity."      -- Daniel Webster
