Faith can motivate you to bloom where you’re planted and start being productive in your quest to fulfill God’s purposes for your life. Hope can give you the inspiration you need to motivate you to serve God. Love can give you the compassion you need to motivate you to take action whenever you sense God calling you to do so.
Our History SOAP stands for “Save Our Adolescents from Prostitution” and is a volunteer driven organization founded by advocate, author, and survivor, Theresa Flores. On her worst night after being auctioned off to nearly two dozen men in a dingy, dirty, inner city Detroit motel, Theresa recalled the only item that could have discreetly linked her to help - a bar of soap. With that realization in mind, The SOAP Project was founded to help reach out to other victims.
The Problem Human trafficking is the second leading crime in the world - including in the United States. There are over 1.3 million missing and runaway children in the U.S. and if a child is not recovered within the first 48 hours, the likelihood is high that they will be trafficked. The average age of entry into human trafficking is 12-14 years old. This is often called “prostitution,” however, if a person under the age of 18 years old is involved in commercial sex, they are being trafficked. If the person is over the age of 18 years old and has a pimp, they are being trafficked. The majority of trafficking occurs in hotels and motels. Although there is always demand for sex, sporting events and large events that draw a great deal of people - particularly men - increase the demand for sex-for-sale. Victims have a 30% higher chance of death by murder, overdose, or suicide than the average person. Of all adults involved in prostitution, 77% report being trafficked as a child.
Mission The SOAP Project is specifically focused on educating the public to increase awareness of the prevalence of human trafficking in communities across the United States and prevent teens from being victimized by domestic sex trafficking. The SOAP Project also works directly with trafficked survivors to provide restorative services. The SOAP Project travels all over the United States to hold outreaches during large events. We partner with local organizations to distribute millions of bars of soap, hand-labeled with a red band giving the National Human Trafficking Hotline number 1(888)373-7888-. Trained volunteers help us offer the soap free-of-charge to motels along with training to be able to identify and report human trafficking when they see it in their establishments. SOAP Outreaches are scheduled around high-demand events like the Super Bowl, NCAA Final Four, Indy 500, and many more.
Our mission: Just Go Feed People Mercy Chefs is a faith-based, non-profit disaster relief organization. We exist to provide professionally prepared, restaurant-quality meals to victims, volunteers, and first responders in natural disasters and national emergencies, and we partner with existing like-minded organizations to further their mission by providing food service in underserved communities across the country.
Chef Gary LeBlanc Founder and CEO
When I founded Mercy Chefs in 2006, I could never have imagined all that God would do through us. At the time, I was broken by what I witnessed while volunteering in my hometown of New Orleans during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The devastation was so intense and widespread. Lives were completely disrupted. The community was in ruins. After Katrina, I saw first-hand the incredible difference a hot meal could make, but with thirty-five years in the hospitality industry under my belt, I was surprised and outraged by the quality of food being served.
I knew something more could be done, and I became inspired to the point of distraction by the idea of serving high-quality food in a disaster zone. Little did I know how far that distraction would lead. To date, we have served over nearly 20 million meals! Mercy Chefs now has six mobile kitchens and four community kitchens, and we are able to respond across the United States, as well as abroad. Please seize this opportunity, as I did over 15 years ago. Volunteer or partner with us today to see what God will do.
We are a Christian non-profit organization that strives to exhort, support and be a witness of God’s love to the unsaved. Our aim is to help fellow believers become better equipped in all areas of service for the Kingdom in this ever-changing and technologically advanced age.
Answering God's calling in our lives, we are compelled to bring the Good News to our decaying and spiritually disintegrating world. Through the joined efforts of true followers of Jesus Christ, the only way given under heavens "in Whom we shall be saved".
The founder of TGCM, evangelist and pastor Joseph Bondarenko has been an active Christian leader of the evangelical church in the former Soviet Union. He spent nearly 10 years of his life in Soviet prisons for his faith in Jesus and the proclamation of the Word of God, teaching children and the youth to carry on the torch of faithfulness through Biblical principles. His calling to the ministry was evident through his faithfulness as a pastor and establisher of evangelical churches in Latvia, Russia (Western Siberia), and the United States. Despite numerous death threats from the KGB, he persisted in his mission to encourage believers to stand firm in their faith through the unrelenting storms of persecution.
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Joseph started massive evangelistic crusades in Russia and former Soviet Republics and helped organize these crusades for Billy Graham and Luis Palau in Russia and Ukraine. His experience as a gifted organizer, evangelist, church-planter and visionary is invaluable to the Christian community as he continues to serve the purposes of God today. At 75, he graduated from International Theological Seminary (ITS) with a Doctorate's degree in Theology. At 77 years of age, he continues to be fruitful for the Lord, passionate and full of enthusiasm; never stops learning and stays young at heart.

Love Life's Story
“My journey began in 2012 when friends took me to a local abortion center to show me the atrocity taking place in our city. When I heard the tragic truths of abortion, I was shocked and sad to see so few actively doing anything about it. The Holy Spirit convicted me of my lack of action, and I knew that needed to change. After much prayer, He downloaded a strategy in my heart to end abortion in Charlotte by uniting and mobilizing the Church.” – Justin Reeder, Love Life Founder
The Mission Love Life is uniting and mobilizing the Church to create a culture of Love and Life that will result in an end to abortion and the orphan crisis.
Youth With A Mission is a global movement of Christians from many cultures, age groups and Christian traditions, dedicated to serving Jesus throughout the world.
Also known as YWAM (pronounced “WHY-wham”), we unite in a common purpose to know God and to make Him known.
Back when we began in 1960, our main focus was to help youth get involved in missions. Today, we still focus on youth and we also include people of all ages. We currently have tens of thousands of staff (called “YWAMers”) from nearly every country, including places like Indonesia, Nepal, Mozambique, and Colombia.
OUR STORY Waves of God’s Faithfulness for 60 Years From a late-night vision of waves of young people reaching every continent, given to a 20-year-old in the Bahamas, to a global ministry with over 20,000 workers, the growth of YWAM is the story of God’s inspiration, God’s grace for many mistakes, and the creativity of the Holy Spirit’s leading. The heart of YWAM–to worship God, to serve God’s global purposes, and to champion young people–remains as strong as it was in the beginning.
Mission & Vision
Defending America’s First Freedom
Religious freedom is the first freedom outlined in the First Amendment of the Constitution, and for good reason: it is the foundational right that all others are built upon. And if this cornerstone freedom ever falls, all other freedoms would be at risk of tumbling as well. That’s why protecting and defending it is so important—because to fight for religious freedom is to fight for the future of all freedoms.
The Future of Religious Freedom
Why it Matters
As our second President John Adams once said: “A constitution of government once changed from freedom can never be restored.” Many in today’s society are moving against this “constitution of freedom,” and it is our duty to not only safeguard this liberty today—but to equip the next generation to defend it tomorrow.
All People, All Faiths
We Stand for You
Our nation’s diversity has always been one of its greatest strengths. No matter your faith, ideology, or background, we will always defend your ability to freely live according to your beliefs—because the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is not conditional. Even better, we do it for free.
