TO REKINDLE AND ESTABLISH THE SPIRIT OF BOYS WHO HAVE BEEN ABANDONED BY THEIR FATHERS; MENTORING THEM ONE-ON-ONE IN LIFE SKILLS THROUGH OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES, AND BY SHARING A CHRISTIAN UNDERSTANDING OF OUR HEAVENLY FATHER'S LOVE AND SACRIFICE FOR HIS CHILDREN.
Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
STEADY NATIONAL EXPANSION CONTINUES WITH THE FATHERS IN THE FIELD EQUIPPING MINISTRY. WE ARE ENGAGED IN 36 STATES WITH OVER 500 CHURCHES AND HAVE RAISED 10 FULL-TIME MISSIONARIES WHO ARE WORKING WITH LOCAL CHURCHES TO EQUIP THEM TO START A MENTORING MINISTRY FOR FATHERLESS BOYS AND TO BE A VOICE FOR FATHERLESS ACROSS THIS NATION. THE MINISTRY WAS ESTABLISHED TO ACTIVELY ADDRESS BROKEN HEARTS, SHARE THE NEED FOR FORGIVENESS, AND HELP STOP THE CYCLE OF ABANDONMENT AND DESTRUCTION THAT OCCURS IN THE NEARLY 25 MILLION FATHERLESS CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18. WE FOCUS ON THREE CRITICAL OBJECTIVES IN REACHING AND RESCUING FATHERLESS BOYS AS WE MOBILIZE 6,000 VOLUNTEER HOURS PER CHURCH HELPING THEIR COMMUNITY. TRAIN AND EQUIP LOCAL CHURCHES: REGIONAL FIELD MISSIONARIES ENGAGE THE LOCAL CHURCHES TO PROVIDE METHODOLOGY, MATERIALS, TRAINING AND COACHING, AND ENCOURAGEMENT TO INSPIRE THE CHURCH STAFF AND CONGREGATION AND TO REACH OUT TO SINGLE MOTHERS WHO HAVE SONS IN THE COMMUNITY. INTENTIONAL MENTORING: THE POWER OF THIS MINISTRY IS GETTING MEN IN THE CHURCH TO INVEST IN A 3-YEAR MENTORING COMMITMENT INTO ONE BOY'S LIFE OF DISCIPLESHIP, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, AND HEALING THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT. SINGLE MOTHER OUTREACH: WE INSPIRE AND EQUIP THE LOCAL CHURCH TO BE PROACTIVE IN REACHING OUT TO SINGLE MOTHERS TO HELP WITH THEIR CHILDREN AND THE FAMILY THROUGH THE SERVICES OF THE LOCAL CHURCH.
