Ministry
Outer island outreaches
The Short of it is that God called us to the remote, the least of these. Believe us when we say the small islands in the middle of the Pacific are just that. A lot of these communities know of God, and many have churches and religions, but not what a relationship with Christ looks like.
We plan quarterly trips to the outer atolls to take Bibles, perform medical services, take supplies, and to serve the isolated. You know, in reality, things don’t always go the way you plan; some months we don’t make it. Especially since COVID hit the world, everything slowed way down, especially out here in the Pacific. There are so many islands to reach here in the Pacific. Our greatest heart's desire is to make sure every household has a Bible in their own language, as well as to know how to have a relationship with God by using the Bible as one of the ways to get to know God personally.
What we do
First thing we do is go where God leads. Sometimes the weather dictates where we go, and other times through direct word God tells us where to go. Before ever leaving the port to do ministry to another island, we seek permission from the local landowners and then the local government. We also work with the Ministry of Health to ascertain where and what type of needs are greatest.
In reaching out by radio, we often discover other needs for that specific island as well. Sometimes it's someone who is in need of travel to that island, or maybe medical supplies from the local hospital. In making contact, they know how many of us are coming and the time frame to expect us. The specific things we do once we sail there look a lot like this, but maybe not in this order:
-
Going house to house to give away a free Bible.
-
Providing a reading glass clinic. We diagnose what level of reading glasses they need and then give them a free pair.
-
Providing a wound care clinic.
-
Providing a diabetes education class, covering the causes and effects, proper nutrition, and how to manage this.
-
Preaching at the various churches.
-
Clothing distribution of the various amounts of donated clothing.
-
Various upskilling/training of the local medical professionals.
-
Going to the school and training about personal hygiene.
-
Providing all girls with a Days for Girls kit, as well as the education behind the use of them.
Transportation of medical/teaching staff or supplies.
How you can help
There are an unlimited number of ways to volunteer with us. We have a need for any area of ministry we are involved in or even some that we have not even begun to start. If you have a heart to sail, teach, preach, do wound care, or advertise the need for funds to put kids in school, there really are so many opportunities to be had. Reach out to us to start this conversation. Do you have a vessel and want to join us here in the Pacific? Let us know.

Pray
Pray for each of the areas of ministry. Pray for our family. Pray about how God could use you—whether at home or in the mission field, your calling is to share the love of God.
​​
Donate
If you are among the many who are blessed with an income, can we interest you in getting involved financially? By investing in God's ministry here in the Marshall Islands, you enable us to reach the isolated people out here in a way that just has not been done before since the early 1800s. We are but one boat but are operating under the word "Go."
Every little bit helps
Whether it's through volunteering your time, donating resources, or offering prayers, every little bit helps in spreading hope and faith. Our mission is to ensure that everyone has access to the teachings and comfort found within these sacred texts. Together, we can make a meaningful impact in the lives of many, fostering a sense of community and spiritual growth across the islands. Thank you for considering being a part of this important journey.
We consistently distribute Bibles to the local islands. If you feel inspired to contribute to this ministry, we welcome your support.
