Together with the social integration of the individual, our realm is to help build faith, hope, and love in the hearts of the local young people in order to motivate them through there personal growth, helping them to be spiritually equipped and live lives pleasing to God.

To be committed to the proposed work, witch is of spiritual nurture, as well as social and humanitarian, takes three things—vision, professionalism, sacrifice, and a heart for God, that is what the Crossed Waves Ministries is about. We are aware that it takes vision knowing that our service and our influence to our young population will make a difference and it takes sacrifice. Our sacrifice will be well worth it as we see what God will be doing in the lives of children we touch. More than any other motive for serving others is the simple fact that God is worthy of our whole lives. (more…)

How do we reconcile anguish and suffering with the Bible’s portrayal of a loving God? Why would He allow the horrendous miseries that afflict humanity? Does the Bible explain suffering? Many people, the faithful and the faithless, look at calamities—whether personal, national or global—and agonize over these questions.

The family tie is the closest, the most tender and sacred. of any human relationship on earth. God instituted the family as the primary provider of the warm and caring relationships for which the human heart yearns.

In the family circle, deep and abiding needs for belonging, love, and intimacy are met in significant ways. God blesses the family and intends that its members will help each other in reaching complete maturity and wholeness. In the Christian family, the personal worth and dignity of each member is affirmed and safeguarded in an environment of respect, equality, openness, and love.
