Our mission is to build relationships with people trapped in substance abuse and delinquency, teach them the Gospel, and disciple them into Christ-like servant-leaders and Kingdom workers on the streets. We aim to equip redeemed men and women to take Jesus Christ into every area of their lives, transforming crime-ridden slums into flourishing centers of Christian hope. Through street evangelism, jungle recovery fellowships, an in-house substance-abuse discipleship program, Christian counseling, seminary-level theology classes, and business empowerment programs, we seek to manifest God's will on these streets as it is in Heaven.
Our ministry faces several significant challenges. Locally, the communities we serve are plagued by high levels of substance abuse, crime, and homelessness. These issues are exacerbated by a lack of access to quality healthcare, education, and employment opportunities. Societal stigma towards substance abusers and delinquents makes it difficult for them to reintegrate into society even after rehabilitation.
In response to these challenges, our ministry has developed a comprehensive approach to recovery and discipleship. Our street evangelism and outreach efforts aim to build trust and offer immediate support to those in need. Jungle recovery fellowships provide a safe space for individuals to begin their journey towards recovery. Our in-house substance-abuse discipleship program offers a structured environment for long-term rehabilitation, while Christian counseling addresses the emotional and spiritual needs of our participants. To further equip them, we provide seminary-level theology classes and business empowerment programs, ensuring they have the knowledge and skills to become self-sufficient and positively impact their communities.
We invite you to join us in this transformative mission. Your support can make a significant difference in the lives of those struggling with substance abuse and delinquency. By providing relief, addressing urgent needs, and donating to our cause, you help us bring the light of Jesus Christ into these dark places. Together, we can turn crime-ridden slums into flourishing centers of Christian hope. Donate today and become a part of this life-changing work.
