6477-912-Street Children Ministry

Teaching English through a language center and working with street children will allow me to build relationships where I can share the hope and love of Jesus with those whom the Father calls. Through these relationships, we seek to begin Discovery Bible Studies, which in turn have the potential to begin a Disciple-Making Movement among the unreached and unengaged people groups in the area. There are at least ten tribes that we are targeting to see a gospel movement. The major challenge is overcoming the false teachings of the dominant religion, which is mixed with animistic beliefs.

“The Poisoning of an American City” (Flint, MI) “1 of 7 Babies Exposed to Zika Has Birth Defects” “Tuberculosis Remains World’s Deadliest Infectious Disease, Says World Health Organization” What do these headlines have in common?

Public health promotes and protects the health of people and the communities where they live and work.

6491-900-Global Leaders Team General Fund

Despite what some experts are saying about the U.S. recession being over, the ripple effects of our economic downturn continue to hurt individuals, businesses and ministries like ours.

As you can imagine, this can dramatically affect their lives, the lives of those to whom they minister and the work of God's Kingdom.
