Overview

Mission

Heaven's family's mission is to advance the kingdom of the lord jesus christ. We do that by strategically linking kingdom needs and opportunities with resources that the lord has entrusted to those who love him. Through god-given partnerships, heaven's family invests in reaching the unreached with the gospel, discipling christ's followers, and serving the suffering- particularly those whom he referred to as the "least of these" (matt. 25:31-46; 28:19-20).

What it reported doing in 2024

Fighting human trafficking & slavery - heaven's family's is currently fighting the plague of human trafficking and slavery in 7 countries. Our partners on the ground work to prevent trafficking through awareness training and building relationships with at-risk populations. Locations are established within very poor communities to serve the people by meeting pressing needs, presenting the gospel, feeding the hungry, and education and social services, when available, including establishing small businesses to foster self-sufficiency that reduces vulnerability. Most of our partners also work to rescue victims, restore them to health, and provide them with education, skills, training, and gospel. We work to empower indigenous people groups, so they are equipped to wage war on the problem of trafficking within their own communities and government.
