What is My Gift for Jesus?
Our December challenge to give a gift to Jesus during this Christmas season by helping children who live in extreme poverty in Kenya and Nicaragua.
How Can I Get Involved?
Choose your level of engagement:
GIVE: Start by making a life changing donation. Monthly sponsorship is just $25. You can give weekly, monthly or annually. Just pledge to give
PRAY: Stop by the missions booth after a weekend service and pick up a prayer card for Nicaragua or a Kenyan child. Hang them in a spot to remind you to pray for these ministries. Not able to make it to one of our campuses in December? No problem. Email us at missions@foxriverchristian.org and we’ll get them to you.
CONNECT: Write letters to the Kenyan child on your prayer card or write an encouraging note to one of our partners in Nicaragua. Visit our Connect page to get started.
GO: Join us on one of the summer mission trips to Kenya or Nicaragua to see first hand what God is doing through your life changing donations. See our Trips page for more information on each trip or to sign up.
How Do I Give?
Give online through Fox River’s website. Be sure to use the fund marked for My Gift for Jesus.

What Does Fox River Do in Kenya and Nicaragua?
Kenya: we partner with local churches to offer a great Christian education that will give these young people the opportunity to know God and break the cycle of poverty in their family and community.
Fully sponsor 2 schools with about 775 students from preschool through middle school and 80 staff members. This includes all school supplies, 2 meals on school days, and basic health care.
About 100 students sponsored in our partner high school.
Clean water for the community surrounding the school.
Farm project to supplement the feeding program.
Adult literacy classes.
A rescue center that provides a loving home for children who have been abandoned.
Nicaragua: we partner with the local church in La Esmeralda to provide healthcare in a remote location where no healthcare in available.
A clinic staffed with a doctor that sees hundreds of patients each month.
The clinic specializes in prenatal care and offers a safe and clean environment for delivery and after care
Beyond the physical care, the pastor and staff share the gospel and minister to the needs of the soul.
The Avance Sports ministry gives an outlet for hundreds of children and teens to engage in wholesome activities and hear about Jesus. Currently they offer soccer, volleyball, and baseball.
To all those who give and pray we would like to say THANK YOU, ASANTE, GRACIAS! We would not be able to make this impact on the world without you. Our partners in both Kenya and Nicaragua want you to know they are so grateful for your love and generosity towards them.
