Learn More About Our Programs
From the very beginning, our ministry has been built on two simple but powerful steps: building relationships and identifying real needs. In our first year, those two priorities shaped everything we did, laying the foundation for what has now grown into a multi-faceted ministry.
Five years later, those same values remain at the heart of every program we offer. Guided by prayer and the Lord’s direction, we have developed initiatives that meet practical needs, open doors for the gospel, and demonstrate God’s love in tangible ways. Every program exists with a united purpose: to bring hope to vulnerable children and their families, empowering them to flourish both spiritually and physically.
Sports Outreach and Bible Study
In our community, sports are more than just a pastime—they are a central part of the culture, especially soccer and baseball. Our Sports Outreach Program meets teens right where they are, offering a positive alternative to the pressures and negative influences around them.
Many young people here stop attending church with their families due to the heavy legalism they experience. Sports provide a natural bridge, giving us the opportunity to build relationships while creating a safe and uplifting environment. Each gathering includes time for devotionals, Bible study, and prayer, allowing us to point students to the hope of the gospel in a setting they love.
We also partner with other ministries, organizing games and tournaments that foster both healthy competition and fellowship across communities.
Dump Ministry & Family Outreach
When we first arrived, we didn’t expect that God would lead us into a garbage dump—but He quickly opened our eyes to the overwhelming need there. Families survive by collecting plastic and glass to sell to recycling plants, and many even search for food among the waste. Seeing children run barefoot through broken glass and filth deeply burdened our hearts and confirmed that this was exactly where we were called to serve.
In this community, education is minimal, and cycles of neglect and abuse are tragically common. Out of this place of desperation, our ministry began a feeding program and family mentorship initiative—meeting both physical and spiritual needs. What started in the dump has now grown into a thriving church community, where children not only receive nutritious meals but also gather weekly for Bible classes, discipleship, and hope for a brighter future.
This remains one of our greatest areas of need and greatest opportunities to show the tangible love of Christ.
Community Center and Kids Clubs
God has blessed us with a beautiful community center complete with a sport court, kitchen, and bathrooms. This space has become a hub where we partner with local communities, ministries, and churches to offer camp and club experiences for at-risk children.
Through sports, baking, crafts, English lessons, and educational support, kids find a safe place to learn, play, and grow. Most importantly, every activity is woven with the hope of the gospel, offering encouragement and healing to children who are hurting. Our programs run in two formats: full-day camps and shorter club sessions—both designed to impact lives through fun, fellowship, and faith.
M.O.M.S Mentorship Program
The number of teen mothers in our community is heartbreaking. Many become pregnant as a result of prostitution, abuse, or the lack of access to education. In fact, 1 in 3 young women here has her first baby before the age of 18, and it is not uncommon for girls as young as 11–14 to already be raising a child.
Our MOMS Mentorship Program exists to walk alongside these young mothers with both practical support and personal mentorship. We help provide essentials such as formula, diapers, food, and clothing, while also guiding them through early childhood education, medical appointments, and access to needed medications. Most importantly, we offer encouragement, hope, and the reminder that they and their children are deeply loved by God.

Shine Sponsorship Program
The Shine Sponsorship Program grew out of our ministry in the garbage dump, where we first met children in desperate need of hope and opportunity. Today, 60 children are sponsored through Shine, giving them access to education and consistent nourishment.
Each sponsored child receives school supplies, backpacks, and uniforms, along with monthly nutritional support that helps them thrive both in the classroom and at home. Through Shine, children not only have their practical needs met but are reminded that they are seen, valued, and loved.
Local Leadership Development
We are actively building a local leadership team to ensure that our ministry efforts can multiply and grow. While making disciples is at the heart of everything we do, we recognize two key truths: first, we cannot personally disciple everyone our ministry reaches; and second, local leaders are far more effective than foreigners in building lasting discipleship and mentorship relationships.
By equipping and empowering local believers, we are strengthening the ministry from within—raising up leaders who will continue the work of the gospel in their own communities for generations to come.
