Abstract
Faith-based organizations play a significant role in the social, moral, and economic development of societies, particularly in developing nations. This study examines the role of Church of God Mission International in nation-building, highlighting its contributions to education, healthcare, moral development, and community service. Using a case study approach, the research explores how the church’s programs and initiatives have impacted societal transformation and national development.The study finds that Church of God Mission International has actively contributed to nation-building through the establishment of educational institutions, provision of humanitarian services, promotion of ethical values, and empowerment of individuals. These efforts have not only improved the quality of life for many citizens but have also supported government efforts in addressing social challenges such as poverty, illiteracy, and moral decline.Furthermore, the study emphasizes the importance of collaboration between faith-based organizations and government agencies in achieving sustainable national development. It concludes that faith-based institutions remain vital stakeholders in nation-building, serving as agents of positive change and development. Recommendations are made for increased partnership, policy support, and recognition of their contributions to national growth.
