Global Missions
Crown of Beauty International provides conferences and discipleship in 17 countries, empowering men and women around the world with God's truth, love, and freedom. COBI has seen individuals, marriages, and families radically changed in Asia, Africa, Middle East, Pacific Islands, and North America as we teach them God's Word, encourage them to share, pray, and disciple one another, and raise up local leaders.
Explore Where We Work
Uganda
Since 2015, COBI has partnered with Life Ministry Uganda to bring our message of hope and healing to churches throughout the country. Our local COBI leaders use our conference and discipleship materials in villages, schools, universities, prisons, and churches to bring God’s love, transformation, and healing. In 2024, many Sudanese Refugees attended our gatherings. In 2026, we expect to host conferences for more Sudanese Refugees who have been displaced because of the ongoing internal conflict.

Nepal
Our first trip to Nepal was in October 2024. Over 300 women attended the Beauty for Ashes conference, and 30 women leaders received discipleship training using the 12-week Crown of Beauty bible study. Many of those leaders have already begun teaching the material in small groups! God planted seeds in 2024, and we will return in 2025 to new area to offer teachings and trainings to all age groups.

Armenia
Armenia sits at a crossroads of history and crisis. Since the escalation of the U.S./Iran conflict, thousands of Iranians have fled across the border seeking safety. Armenia is visa-free, and many refugees are arriving with nothing; displaced, afraid, and searching for hope. Christian agencies are already meeting them at the border. COBI will join the work of what God is already doing there. Through our Armenian partners on the ground, our team will travel to Armenia and will host free Farsi conferences for Iranian refugees providing healthy meals, materials in their heart language, and teaching centered on the person of Jesus Christ and the God-given dignity every woman carries as one made in His image.

Freedom from lies, shame and sin!
The Crown of Beauty materials and conferences invite women (and men) to experience the power of the Holy Spirit as God's truths are shared defining their worth and value as image bearers of the Creator, revealing lies, shame or sin that prevents someone from living their full potential in Christ.
Each country represents a harvest of women who, by God's grace, are now experiencing a new-found freedom in Christ, living in joyous freedom as they follow after Christ and His purposes for their lives.
