Churches across America help SCI support mariners wherever they go.

The work of international seafarers, river mariners and Gulf Coast offshore workforce sometimes goes unnoticed, but their efforts make a big difference in our world. Hardworking men and women deliver the goods that make our modern way of life possible, spending extended periods away from their homes and families.

SCI provides pastoral care, continuing maritime education, legal advocacy and other indispensable services to the maritime community.

We do not act alone. As an extension of outreach in their neighborhoods and beyond, Mariner Friendly Churches around the country partner with SCI in its ministry. SCI relies on and deeply values the support of faith-based communities who make our mission possible.
