About 7 Benih Ministry
A Christian nonprofit based in San Antonio, Texas, dedicated to transforming lives through faith, education, and love.
Our Story
We partner with missionaries Bill and LaMoin Cunningham, who have faithfully served as church builders for over 60 years, the past 20 being in Sulawesi, Indonesia, starting operating a thriving orphanage that serves more than 50 children.
As they move into an advisory position, 7 Benih Ministry is committed to continuing their legacy while expanding our reach across Indonesia, building more orphanages, schools, churches, and community centers.
Benih is the Indonesian word for “seeds,” and the number 7 represents our Seven Pillars of Missions that guide every aspect of our ministry.
