Our family has been called to a very unique ministry here in Portland, Oregon reaching the poor and needy.  We hope that this website helps you understand what we do and our vision of what God has laid on our hearts for a ministry across the country.  Please join us and pray for us as we make an effort to walk the footsteps of Jesus and what He has called us to do.

We are very excited to introduce our official logo!!  We wanted to share with you the meaning behind the look of it.

1)  The broken up word, "Knowing", is showing how there are broken lives out there that we are working with on a daily basis.

2)  The word, "Me", is showing how they become whole once they have a friend, someone standing up for them, walking the road with them, and most of all sharing God's love in action.

3)  The heart symbolizes that love is at the center of this ministry.  It is God's love that is being shown in action through us.  We love these precious people because God loves them.

Immediate Need is the RV.  We have found the RV that we really think is the one that would meet our needs.  We just need a little less than $5,000.  The couple that owns it has been very patient because they haven't sold it after all this time.  They really desire it to go to us and be used for the ministry.  Would you consider donating toward this?  It is in GREAT shape.

What would it be used for?  Ministry work and a place for us to stay and have stability until God provides the home.  It would not be a purchase just for the here and now, it would be something that would get a lot of use for many years.  If you want to donate toward this, please go to the side of this page and click on the "Paypal" button or go to our "Donate" page and read other options.  Make sure you mark it "RV fund".

We love spending time daily helping the homeless, but it is a special time when we get to just have some fun and feed their stomachs.  We have been able to do this several times lately.  We are so far receiving $50 a month for this.  Please consider donating toward this so we can feed them each weekend.  There are many starving people out there.

One particular thing we do in the ministry, is we pass out Bibles to ones desiring to read and learn more about our God.  This is Ruthie.  She was so excited to receive her Bible we got for her.  She shed a few tears and then began smiling from ear to ear.  It is one of her most important possessions and she has it with her at all times.

We would appreciate your help and prayers for this property.  Several of us have gone to see it and we all thought it would be perfect for what we are looking for.

                                                                                                          Here are some assets that we can see so far that is important to us and have been praying about:

1. God would have a story that would be told in how He provided for it.  With the way this came about with the realtor and then Mike having Bible studies there, that has already begun.

2.  Nice piece of property where we could add on easily since the house would be used for fellow believers that want to join us.  We already have several people who want to live with us or close to us so we can worship and have teaching and accountability daily.  Everyone so far that is joining us have struggles and they want a clean place and to learn how to live the daily life as a disciple of Christ

3. We also wanted enough property for a nice size vegetable garden and play area for the kids

They are asking $250,000.  It is appraised for over $500,000.  This is a rare piece of property here in Portland with the land being over an acre.  So much potential.  Please pray with us about this.  Pray and search if God would have you help us financially in this or if you know someone who would want to.  Feel free to contact us if you have any questions or if you would like to talk to our Realtor.

AGAIN....this is not just for us.  We have been willing to be homeless, live in an RV, whatever God wanted.  BUT, this is all part of the ministry.  It would be used to house us and others who want to join us in the ministry along with a place of hospitality for ones traveling out here to check out what we do and serve as missions teams for our ministry.
