Hearts in Action aims to help children, families, and leaders find freedom in Christ and become change-makers globally. The Guatemalan educational system struggles due to years of underfunding, which has created challenges for rural schools. 
 
HIA Guatemala has started a Mobile Library by transforming an old school bus to a library on wheels. The conversion includes custom features like Itza Wood, new paint, flooring, electricity, and mechanical updates, with the project nearing completion. The mobile library aims to address this issue by offering quality education, promoting literacy, and fostering community engagement. With support, the initiative plans to provide books, school supplies, and games to create inviting learning spaces in some of the poorest communities.
 
In addition, HIA Guatemala has a program called “FestiValores” or Festival of Values.  This program helps children learn biblical truths, aiming to create resilience and godly character. It involves not just children but also parents and teachers, ensuring community-wide engagement and providing valuable resources. The initiative stresses the importance of reaching young kids to shape their values early on. FestiValores will be expanded to rural schools in northern Guatemala, an area significantly affected by cartel influence, by distributing teaching materials and training community members.

Bart and Emily Allen serve as missionaries in Papua New Guinea. Their family is focused on helping the Amdu people, who have a very remote village in the western mountains of Papua New Guinea.

In their ministry they have learned the Amdu language, taught literacy, and are now translating the Bible to the Amdu language so it can be taught to the people and ultimately the Amdu church. They found that the Amdu people previously had little understanding of God’s Word. In 2020, after teaching the story of Creation to Christ, some Amdu friends accepted Christ for salvation. The team continues to teach and disciple these new believers, praying for more to listen to God’s truth.

Learning the Amdu language and culture was essential for sharing God’s message effectively. The family is grateful for the believers that have formed in the village and prays for more conversions in the future. They ask for prayers for their ongoing work among the Amdu people.

Situated in western Uganda, in a predominantly Muslim region, Pastor Samuel Wagaba is dedicated to sharing the love of Christ in both word and action. With a heart for his community and a clear calling from God, Pastor Samuel has spent years faithfully investing in the lives of those around him. During this time, he has witnessed God’s provision through the establishment of a local church, a school, and a medical clinic, each meeting critical spiritual and physical needs.

At the center of his ministry is a deep commitment to orphans and vulnerable children, helping them discover their God-given gifts and grow in a personal relationship with Christ. Pastor Samuel’s passion extends beyond children to the entire community, as he regularly engages in open-air evangelistic preaching, reaching those who have not yet encountered the hope found in Jesus.

Through compassion, perseverance, and the gifts God has entrusted to him, Pastor Samuel is steadily impacting lives and building trust within his community. His ministry reflects a holistic approach to transformation — caring for the body, nurturing the soul, and pointing people to Christ. Each day, he continues to faithfully serve, making a lasting difference one life at a time.

During the brutal reign of the infamous dictator Idi Amin, Pastor Isaac was shot and left for dead, lying among a heap of bodies. At that moment, he heard a voice say, “Isaac, I have saved your life so that you may save the lives of my fatherless children.” Strengthened by God’s power, Isaac crawled from the pit—and in time, God fulfilled His promise. What began with two abandoned children grew into a life-saving ministry.

Today, in Buziika near Jinja, Uganda, Pastor Isaac faithfully serves the God who spared his life. He has become a father to the fatherless, caring for children who are abandoned, neglected, abused, and orphaned due to the ravages of HIV/AIDS and war. Canaan Children’s Home provides care for children ages 4–14, organized into four family units, each led by a dedicated foster parent. In addition, Canaan continues to support older children who have been reintegrated with relatives through an ongoing scholarship and care program, ensuring they remain covered, supported, and loved through the ministry.

Located in Masese, within the Jinja District of Uganda, The Oasis of Hope Foundation is a Christ-centered ministry established by the local church with a heart to share the Word of God with all people, regardless of tribe, religion, background, or culture. Situated along the shores of Lake Victoria, Oasis of Hope has partnered closely with Grace Fellowship since 2006, and together they have witnessed God’s faithfulness and provision year after year.

What began as a vision has grown into a thriving ministry that now serves the community in powerful and tangible ways. Today, Oasis of Hope supports a school serving more than 600 children, including a dormitory that houses 250 students, and a church that currently seats 300, with a new sanctuary under construction that will soon welcome up to 3,000 worshipers. Prior to 2006, none of these ministries existed — a reminder of how God has moved through faith, obedience, and perseverance.

Oasis of Hope continues to shine as a beacon of God’s love in Masese by nurturing children, providing counseling to the weary, creating income-generating opportunities for the poor and disadvantaged, and caring for the physical and emotional needs of the sick. Through it all, God alone has received the glory, as lives are restored and hope continues to grow within the community.

Home of Joy is a children’s home ministry in Chiang Mai, Thailand, run under the Project L.I.F.E. Foundation of Youth With A Mission (YWAM). It exists to care for babies and young children who have been orphaned or abandoned — children who otherwise might end up in overcrowded government institutions with limited care.

At its heart, Home of Joy seeks to provide a family-style environment where these children receive love, security, and consistent care from infancy through adulthood, just like in a normal family. The ministry emphasizes not only meeting physical needs but also fostering emotional and spiritual wellbeing as part of a caring Christian community.

The current home cares for a small group of children, and individual stories — such as a girl named “Boo” who was lovingly nurtured there until she could reunite with her family — highlight the program’s focus on restoration alongside care.
Supporters can sponsor children or staff or volunteer (especially in child care roles), helping sustain the ministry’s mission. Home of Joy operates within the broader network of YWAM Chiang Mai ministries, which work in areas like training, outreach, and community service throughout the region.
