Alsups for Asia

05/13/2026

For over 10 years, our family has had the privilege of serving with MANNA Worldwide, helping connect churches, individuals, and business leaders with projects that care for children and strengthen Gospel work around the world.

One thing I don’t always talk about clearly enough is this:

Missionaries need a faithful support team behind them.

Over time, some of our personal monthly support has naturally dropped off as individuals and churches have gone through changes. That means we are asking God to raise up new monthly partners who want to help keep our family fully engaged in this work.

Our goal is to add 20 new monthly support partners.

Our typical monthly supporter gives $100-$250/month. Every faithful monthly gift helps create stability so we can continue serving, traveling, leading teams, raising project funds, and helping children through MANNA’s work in Asia and beyond.

If you’d like to be part of our family’s mission support team, send me a message or go to mannaworldwide.com/craig-alsup.

I’d be honored to share more.

From our ministry partner Solomon in Nepal:

“Yesterday I got to know the real reason why they demolished part of our space, if we look simply it seems to widen the stream and make way for smooth water flow which is understandable.

As they just want to demolish structure of 3 houses and nothing beyond these structure where there are like more than 15 houses touching the stream, one man said us it is to silence our fellowship.

I wasn't sure about this and went to a municipality where one member of municipality is our neighbour and a good friend, and she confirmed it.

This is a direct attack on our fellowship and our mission, they used law to silently kill our mission where we can't even protest directly.

I want to fight this injustice and even flourish our mission in this very location, not by being violent or being radical, I want this to fight with the grace of God and through prayers. Please remember us in your prayers.

God bless us all.”

Please pray for our friends and partners around the world who are coming under all sorts of persecution. We are going to have to try to find a new space in a anti-Christian culture, which is always difficult. Please pray.

Our newest nutrition center in Nepal is now up and running! A year ago, this was just empty land!

Ever wonder what it’s actually like on the ground? 🌎

There’s something powerful about seeing the impact of our programs with your own eyes. It’s one thing to hear about clean water or nutrition programs, but it’s another thing entirely to sit across from a child, hear their laugh, and see their future unfolding firsthand.

It’s not just a mission trip: it’s an experience that changes the way you see the world.

Our trips usually last 7 to 14 days and visit projects in over 50 countries. We focus on building lasting relationships with the children and local leaders we serve.

There’s something so special about the bond you create in just a few weeks!

We have some incredible upcoming trips to Nepal in June or August + opportunities to add additional trips. Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned traveler, we'd love for you to join us on an upcoming journey.

Ready to see the impact firsthand? Shoot us a message. We can’t wait to have you on the team! ✈️💙
