Buddy System

Teenagers are paired with a younger child, a “buddy,” and attend trainings on how to support and encourage their buddy. Their duties consist of mentoring, helping their buddy with homework, housework, and chores, along with emotional, spiritual and relational support.

Life of Hope

Spiritual impact through cell churches

The goal of this program is to grow and expand the Kingdom of God by multiplying local cell churches. With our staff’s fifteen years of experience planting 1,200 cell churches, we are spreading the hope of the gospel, especially in unreached areas. Members of cell churches reach out to neighbors and family, sharing Christ and meeting physical needs.

Mobilizing Volunteers

Cell church members are trained to serve as volunteers in the community. They also take responsibility for church growth by sharing the gospel and dividing into new cell churches. They become agents of holistic transformation by sharing with their community the health lessons, social issue principles, and livelihood skills they have learned, practiced, and experienced for themselves. 

Cell Churches

Cell churches are a form of house church where Christians meet together to praise, worship, learn, serve their communities and grow together. A cell church consists of 6 to 12 members who meet in one of their homes. First, a FOH staff member leads and facilitates the cell church. Then, when they are strong enough, a trained and appointed local cell church leader leads the group. As the cell church grows, the members and their leader then establish a new cell church.

Leadership Training

Formal training is available to increase cell church members’ potential and capacity to become mature leaders. Members are equipped with biblical, agricultural, livelihood, health and social rights training.
