WinShape Camps for Communities
Sometimes a week filled with laughter, new experiences, and friendship can open the door to something much bigger.
Through WinShape Camps for Communities, children in our own community are surrounded by caring adults who encourage them, celebrate who God created them to be, and help them discover more about Jesus. Camp may provide the setting, but the real investment is in the child.
WinShape staff and local volunteers serve together to create an environment where kids can belong, build confidence, try new things, ask questions, and experience the joy of being known and valued. Along the way, relationships grow not only with campers, but with their families as well.
That is why this partnership matters to us. WinShape gives us another way to reach families right here at home and begin relationships that do not have to end when camp does.
A memorable week can become a meaningful connection, and a meaningful connection can become an opportunity to keep showing a child and family the love of Jesus.

A Detailed Look at Our Global Partners
Alaska Missions
Alaska is known for breathtaking landscapes, but Alaska Missions believes its greatest beauty is found in its people.
Across rural communities, they build relationships with individuals and families who may be carrying the effects of isolation, addiction, abuse, suicide, historic trauma, and generational hurt. They enter these communities with humility, ready to listen, willing to serve, and committed to earning trust over time.
That trust creates space for something deeper. Through consistent care and genuine relationships, Alaska Missions seeks to remind people of their God-given worth and identity and help them discover the hope, healing, and peace found in Jesus.
By supporting Alaska Missions, we help make that faithful presence possible. We stand behind people who keep showing up, keep loving, and keep sharing Christ in both word and action.

Rancho Dos Countries (Mexico)
In the communities surrounding Rancho Dos Countries, ministry looks a lot like showing up for people again and again.
Children grow up with adults who encourage them. Families have trusted leaders they can turn to. Local pastors walk with people through ordinary days, joyful milestones, and difficult seasons. Over time, those relationships create places of belonging where people can receive care, find encouragement, and hear the hope of Jesus from someone they know and trust.
We join a ministry that is already woven into the life of the community. The pastors and leaders of Rancho Dos Countries know the people, understand the needs, and remain present long after others have gone home.
So our part is not to arrive with all the answers. It is to strengthen the hands of those who are already there encouraging them as they faithfully love their neighbors and invest in children and families.
Because lasting change rarely happens in a moment. It grows through people who choose to stay, care, and walk together.
Clubhouse Guatemala
For Clubhouse Guatemala, caring for a child means caring about the family, the community, and the future surrounding that child.
Their ministry is built around long-term relationships with children and families throughout Guatemala. As children learn and grow, Clubhouse encourages them to recognize their God-given value. As families face challenges and pursue a stronger future, local staff, pastors, volunteers, and community leaders remain close by, offering encouragement, support, discipleship, and friendship.
What makes this ministry lasting is that it is rooted in people who are already part of these communities. Guatemalan leaders know the families, understand their stories, and are committed to walking with them well beyond a single moment of need.
Our role is to stand with them to strengthen local leaders, encourage families, and help create more opportunities for people to encounter the love of Christ in ways that are personal and practical.
At its heart, Clubhouse Guatemala reminds us that ministry is not simply about meeting a need. It is about knowing people, loving them well, and pointing them toward Jesus.
Pastor Oscar & Iglesia Bíblica Unción Con Gloria
In Grecia, Costa Rica, ministry happens through the everyday faithfulness of a local church that knows its neighbors by name.
Pastor Oscar and Iglesia Bíblica Unción Con Gloria care for people across generations, from children and families to men, women, and older adults. They listen to stories, pray with people, celebrate joyful moments, walk through difficult seasons, and continually point their community toward Jesus.
This is what makes our relationship with Pastor Oscar so meaningful: we get to strengthen a church that is already deeply rooted in its community. We are not bringing ministry to Grecia. We are joining believers who are already there, faithfully loving and serving the people God has placed around them.
Long after a visit or event has ended, Pastor Oscar and his church remain continuing the conversations, nurturing the relationships, and sharing the hope of Christ day after day.
Crossroads Global Initiative (Germany)
The next generation is full of potential and Crossroads Global Initiative believes that potential is worth investing in.
Sports and outdoor experiences give Crossroads a natural place to connect with children and teenagers, but the activity is only the beginning. Coaches, mentors, church leaders, and caring adults use those shared moments to encourage young people, earn their trust, model an authentic faith, and create space for meaningful conversations about Jesus.
Crossroads is helping young people discover not only what they can do, but who they are becoming and how God can use their lives to influence others.
When we partner with Crossroads, we invest alongside leaders who are pouring into young people today with an eye toward tomorrow. We help encourage a generation that can carry the love of Christ into their homes, schools, churches, communities, and wherever God may lead them next.
