MINISTRY FOCUS

Team up with church planters to do servant evangelism across the city. We will also work alongside an addiction recovery ministry, supporting them as they run various businesses that fund the program.

PEOPLE GROUP/CITY PROFILE

Decadence and indulgence have long been associated with this city, and a decade ago, most pastors viewed New Orleans as a graveyard for church plants. Spiritual warfare permeates the city. Many people considered themselves religious—even Christian—despite having little understanding of the gospel. Evangelical churches didn’t die here; they couldn’t even get off the ground. But Katrina has changed everything, and the field is ripe for harvest.

PEOPLE GROUP/CITY PROFILE

Cooperating with the church planting strategies of IMB missionaries as they facilitate partnerships with Mexican national churches seeking to plant healthy, autonomous, multiplying churches among the least reached regions of the Bajio. The Bajio is located in the center of Mexico and is known as the “heart of darkness” of Mexico due to the lack of evangelical presence. There are literally hundreds of counties within the seven states of the Bajio with an evangelical status of less than 1-2%.

The Bradford's Missions Story

The Bradfords had been on mission trips before, but none quite like this. During their mission trip to Atlanta, Georgia, they ministered to refugees and were challenged to share the Gospel with those they met.

Throughout the trip, God gave them the boldness they had prayed for. Now, they’ve brought that same passion back home as they minister to those around them.


Change Lives

With Your Giving

Your faithful giving helps us reach those close to us but far from Christ. As a result, healthy Churches are planted in Kentucky and beyond for the glory of God. We give, not because God needs our money, but because He commands us to, and doing so shows He can be trusted.
