Delivering the Message of Salvation for Over 40 Years

our beginning

Worldwide Outreach is a 501c3 Non-Profit Interdenominational ministry based in Albany Oregon USA. Donations are tax deductible. Our focus is outreach evangelism and national missions in developing countries. Worldwide Outreach (formerly Worldwide Crusades) was officially established in 1994 by pastor and evangelist William (Bill) Smith and his wife Judy. In Africa, Central America and South America, Worldwide Outreach has seen thousands upon thousands of people come to Christ and connect to a local church for discipleship and fellowship.

WORLDWIDE OUTREACH TODAY

Today Worldwide Outreach is led by his son, Pastor Derick Smith, who has a background in video production and missions. He has been involved in full time ministry with his wife Shannon for over 20 years. Derick is passionate about reaching the lost and giving national missionaries the tools they need. Derick has a heart for reaching rural and unreached people groups. In addition, he has a visionary plan for developing new media as an outreach tool, helping national missionaries win the lost for Christ in their own countries. Derick has the desire to inspire and encourage national missionaries, helping church leaders with their goal of effective outreach evangelism.
