How You Can Support This Mission

As we step out in faith, we need your prayers and support to make this mission possible.

🙏 Prayer: Please pray for wisdom, provision, and the impact of this ministry. Pray for partnership opportunities and as we plan for the 2026 year. Pray that the Gospel is shared and that God is glorified!

  • As we plan for the year—we have some great opportunities nationally and internationally with our basketball ministry–pray for these partnerships and that God is glorified. In addition the funds, staff, and volunteers needed.


💰 Financial Support: Active Impact International is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and we are raising financial support to launch this as a full-time ministry. Financial contributions will allow us to plan effectively. Our goal is to raise financial support for us to get started and continue to grow the ministry as the Lord leads–Lord willing, go full time by summer of 2026. At this time we realize this will  be as Paul a “tent ministry”--we will work and do Active Impact, until, Lord willing, Active Impact can be done full time. We realize this is all in the Lord’s timing. How the funds are being used:

  • To implement projects that we can that are based on our mission/vision while not being full time

  • My goal is to raise support in order to go full time as the Lord leads

  • Active Impact International is a 501 3c non-profit

      Clinton, MS 39060

🤝 Partnerships: We are seeking churches, schools, families, and individuals to help build strong partnerships that will sustain this ministry for the long term.
