Far Reaching Ministries Blog
Welcome to our blog
Our mission is to carry the Gospel to the lost and dying of the world with discipleship as a primary vehicle. We do this through the planting and establishing of churches and Bible schools. We desire to minister to the afflicted, starving, and dying by bringing aid to their physical needs while, most importantly, fulfilling their spiritual needs with the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. We desire to train and equip in the United States, training missionaries to go out and fulfill the calling on their lives and exercise the gifts given them by our Father in Heaven. In doing so, we are able to reach the rest of the world by supplying teachers and mentors who can effectively train and equip indigenous pastors and servants to minister in their own countries or serve as missionaries to neighboring countries.
It is our desire that this blog site will allow you to connect with the work we are doing on the field, even from your homes. We ask you to join with us in prayer for the lives that are being impacting with the Gospel, for those who carry the Good News, for all the laborers in the field. We also wish to thank you for your part in this ministry- for without you there would be no Far Reaching Ministries.
We hope you enjoy our field updates. To read of various saints who have come alongside of this ministry, please click the "Partners in the Gospel" button.

I do not know the answer to these questions but I do know that we serve a loving G—full of grace and mercy. I trust HIM<>< with the answers and I know...

God’s faithful hand was at work beyond the Christmas gifts and the winter camp. It was very clear for me to see that through your prayers and support of these projects, God blessed many families in need.
