Global
Reaching the world.
our dream
Empowering and equipping Fearless Followers to form relationships that bring Jesus’ transformation in our world.
Why missions?
God calls and empowers us to bring Jesus’ love, healing and hope to the world as well as our home communities.
Globally, we build church to church partnerships to bring pieces of God’s Kingdom here now through church planting, leadership development, child sponsorships
There’s plenty of opportunity for every follower of Jesus to engage
Zambia
Our purpose is to partner with and walk alongside Jubilee Centre in integral mission: that is, to be salt and light in their communities.
Fearless Family (FF-JC) walks alongside Jubilee Centre, an existing Christian Non-Government Organization in Zambia that has been labeled, “a Christian think tank on wheels.” JC through the leadership of Executive Director David, Temfwe equips, empowers, and inspires pastors in their network of churches, which are located in Ndola and Lusaka Zambia.
The Fearless Family deploys a short-term trip team to Zambia once a year, usually late May- early June. The trip is a mix of learning about different aspects of JC’s ministry, meeting trip participant’s sponsored children, teaching workshops, while glimpsing daily life in Zambia”.
One of the important aspects of our partnership is the Jubilee Centre Child Sponsorship Program (JC-CSP).
There is also a gift catalog that you can access here that has gifts you can purchase for the students and families there.
The JC-CSP is a holistic approach to addressing the needs of orphans and vulnerable children that equips families while providing for the child’s needs. With your help, a child’s life is changed.

Tanzania
We partner with Hope of the Nations in their vision of bringing hope to the nations through the knowledge of Jesus Christ and the Word of God. This is done by raising up leaders through its Primary School, Bible College, church planting, village outreach, trade school, farming, youth camps, and kid’s clubs. We help them enable children to receive an education, provide scholarships for pastors to be adequately trained, and help struggling families learn trade skills to support themselves. When you partner with HofN you are never simply a “sponsor” or “donor.” Instead, you are assisting in making disciples and making Jesus known in Tanzania.

I met Breidy, her mom and sister at the Women’s Ministry gathering when our team was in Honduras last March. Her mom was sitting alone and my heart went out to her. I found out that their family is one of the poorest in the area. On the last day we were there I was able to meet Breidy’s father and speak with him as well. Soon, we were able to sponsor her! When I went to Honduras in November I was able to see Breidy and her family at the medical clinic. Her father couldn’t thank me enough for our support for their family.

My children and I were feeling called to go on a mission trip. God paved the path and we all heard Go to Zambia. This trip has been life-changing for all of us. We were able to meet our sponsored child, Sylvester. Meeting him was something we always dreamed of but didn’t know if we would ever get the chance to go. We feel so blessed that God gave us this opportunity and we will never forget that day! He was so excited to meet us and his family and friends embraced us. Their gratitude was overwhelming. Sylvester said his favorite thing to do was read the Bible. We were able to share our favorite Bible verses with each other. We learned that Sylvester is a very bright boy and academically gifted! He wants to be an engineer one day. We know God is making a way for him to go to University and change his future and his family’s life. Meeting him was truly a Divine intervention.
In the US we have so much. With a small commitment of $38 per month you can change a child’s life and their family’s future!! Please consider participating in supporting these children! You can change a life and you will be blessed!!
