Nudge Ministries

Our Mission In Ghana

Our mission is to encourage, equip, train and financially support pastors in Ghana, West Africa, so they can better reach people for Christ and plant churches in villages where there are no churches. These “house” churches will then plant more “house” churches. We are so blessed to report that in March of 2023, we were able to plant our 100th church in the North West region of Ghana. Sign up to receive monthly emails and/or the mailing two times a year to keep up with hearing about God’s workings.

  • As the old saying goes, "Bloom where you are planted". Many discipleship endeavors are the heartbeat of Nudge ministries locally. Nudge is a resource in many ways to churches & Christian schools. In schools, Rich shares in classes and/or chapels. In churches, he presents the ministry in Ghana to congregations, leads in-person small groups and Zoom groups, but can help with their missions and in their VBS.

    Rich does one-on-one discipleship appointments as well as phone conversations using the ESPN formula: Encouragement, Scriptures, Prayers, and Next Steps, which are based on what the person has as their goals for growth.

  • Our regional emphasis is working with the Thru-Hikers on the Appalachian Trail. They are hiking 2,197 miles over 5-6 months. We volunteer as "Trail Angels" on the trail to provide water, snacks, sugary beverages, and/or hot chocolate and coffee, as well as chairs to relax in. As we serve them and engage in informative and encouraging trail conversation, we look for opportunities to gently share the hope of Christ.

  • Our founder Rich Tuttle shares the following testimony...In 2004, I was invited to go to Ghana. I was already Pastoring a church and involved in missions in other countries so I said “No thank you”. In 2005, I was asked again but this time, the person said, “before you answer, would you pray about it?” Smiling, I answered back, “Sure”. (I was smiling because I thought I knew the answer, which was “God said no”). There was a great God story of His speaking and making a way, so I went in November of 2005. It was to be a “One and done trip”. There are many more God stories. I have gone every year since and often multiple times a year so about 50 Trips.
