One Redeemer Ministries

ORM is a social non-profit organization dedicated to the movement of the Gospel while working alongside orphans and widows in distress. We are located in both Tanzania and South Dakota, USA. The founders of ORM developed their business model based off of James 1:27, “Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress and refusing to let the world corrupt you”. We serve with a three-step process: relief, rehabilitation, and development. We strive to work with a “doing with” and “responding to” philosophy, rather than a “doing for” philosophy.


Widows are among one of the biggest populations in Tanzania. ORM strives to walk alongside widows as they journey in their lives, by supporting their home, children, work, and love of Jesus. ORM is a big supporter of Making Him Known to those that are without a mother and father. We know that Christ is the Ultimate Father and He is the Father that created us in our mother’s womb. ORM seeks to share this goodness with those who have no earthly father or mother. Making Christ Known. Sharing the Gospel with every person that we serve alongside is the biggest priority for ORM. ORM strives to make sure the Kingdom is growing and that we are living out the commission from our Father.
