Crazy Love Ministries

TO CATALYZE INDIVIDUALS, CHURCHES, GROUPS AND OTHERS IN THEIR FAITH.

CRAZY LOVE HELPS OTHER CHRIST-CENTERED ORGANIZATIONS, BOTH LOCALLY AND GLOBALLY, THROUGH GRANTS AND LOVE OFFERINGS. SOME OF THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT WE HAVE SUPPORTED IN 2021 INCLUDE: CRISIS AID INTERNATIONAL, NEI FOUNDATION, BASIL TECHNOLOGIES, NEW LIFE DREAM CENTER, 1 MILLION HOMES, IHOPKC, YWAM, VILLAGE LIFE, AND MORE.

THE RESIDENTIAL PORTION OF CRAZY LOVE MINISTRIES' OFFICE BUILDING IS USED TO PURPOSEFULLY CREATE AN INTENTIONAL CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY AND HELPS THOSE WHO ARE IN POVERTY OR HAVE LOW INCOME. EACH OF THE TENANTS AGREE TO STATED CHRISTIAN BELIEFS IN EFFORTS TO HELP DEVELOP THIS COMMUNITY. EACH OF THE ROOMS RENTED TO THE TENANTS ARE RENTED BELOW MARKET VALUE. CRAZY LOVE MINISTRY ALSO RENTS OUT OTHER PROPERTIES AROUND THE BAY AREA (PARTICULARLY IN LOW INCOME HOUSING AREAS) TO LOW INCOME INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES AT BELOW MARKET VALUE, SO AS TO HELP THEM DEVELOP COMMUNITY AND PLANT CHURCHES WHERE THEY ARE. IN ADDITION TO THE BAYVIEW AND MISSION, THIS YEAR, WE HAVE ALSO FOCUSED OUR ATTENTION ON THE AREAS OF DALY CITY AND EAST PALO ALTO.

IN THE FALL OF 2018, FRANCIS PARTNERED WITH DAVID C. COOK TO RELEASE A BOOK CALLED: LETTERS TO THE CHURCH. LETTERS TO THE CHURCH IS THE MESSAGE FRANCIS CHAN FELT GOD WANTED HIM TO SHARE ABOUT GOD'S DESIRE FOR WHAT THE CHURCH SHOULD BE LIKE BASED ON SCRIPTURE. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, GOD GAVE ANOTHER MESSAGE TO FRANCIS ABOUT HIS DESIRE TO SEE ALL BELIEVERS UNITED, REGARDLESS OF DEMONIMATION OR BACKGROUND. THIS MESSAGE BECAME THE BOOK: UNTIL UNITY, WHICH WAS PUBLISHED IN 2021. BOTH BOOKS RECEIVED MUCH POSITIVE FEEDBACK AND ARE CURRENTLY BEING DISTRIBUTED WORLDWIDE IN NUMEROUS LANGUAGES. ROYALTIES RECEIVED FROM THE BOOKS ARE BEING USED TO FUND THE WORK OF BOTH LOCAL AND INTERNATIONAL CHRIST-CENTERED MINISTRIES. THE MESSAGES FROM LETTERS TO THE CHURCH AND UNTIL UNITY HAVE BECOME OUR BLUEPRINTS TO PLANT CHURCHES AND TO TRAIN PASTORS AND LEADERS.

THROUGH THE USE OF VIDEOS AND SOCIAL MEDIA, WE ARE MORE EFFECTIVELY BRINGING THE GOSPEL TO THE FURTHEST CORNERS OF THE WORLD.
