BUILDING DREAMS... CHANGING LIVES!

Who Are We?
Men and women, members of God's family across the world with a heart to reach out to expand the family with God's special needs children and youth bringing them an opportunity to experience God's favor and love. Taking the salvation message and love through sharing caring and giving.

Bearing Much Fruit:
We are witnesses to the authentic experiences of salvation in many of the campers. Families have reported that these children and youth are praying daily before meals and bedtime as well as asking for a Bible. They are sharing their joy with their families and neighbors. We have witnessed several families join the family of God through these camps.

Our Beliefs:

  • The Bible is God's inspired word
  • The Word is our Authority
  • Jesus' birth, life, death and resurrection is our redemption
  • In divine health and prosperity of our body, soul and spirit

Growing Roots : This ministry began during the summer of 1998 after responding to the call from God. The work beginning in Ecuador, S.A. is the opportunity to offer even more to special needs children and youth across the world. By bringing the love and joy of Jesus to these wonderful people we are witnessing growth and change in their lives. These changes are evident in their bodies, minds and their social position. Some have resulted in higher education and employment that prior to their camp experience was not even thought possible.
