Ministry Description
LIFE Outreach International is a Christian organization dedicated to sharing the life and love of Jesus Christ with hurting people worldwide by means of personal ministry, media outreach and humanitarian mission relief. The ministry's primary outreach is through its daily and weekly TV program, LIFE TODAY, which reaches into the homes of millions of people throughout the U.S. and Canada with inspirational and evangelical content while sharing news of and opportunities for world mission projects. The ministry strives to not only declare the love of Christ, but to demonstrate it as well through its various ministry and mission outreaches. LIFE was founded by James and Betty Robison in June, 1963 as the James Robison Evangelistic Association.

ServantMatch®
At the heart of LIFE’S mission is Jesus’ command, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel…” (Mark 16:15 NKJV). In every outreach, be it Mission Feeding, LIFE Centers, Water for LIFE or Homes for LIFE, we cultivate every opportunity to share the Gospel.
Around the world, we're not just building a house; we're fulfilling a dream for families...the dream of owning a REAL HOME! With your support, our Homes for LIFE outreach build brand new homes for families and children living in extreme poverty. These sturdy homes are built to last a minimum of 25 years in the roughest weather conditions.
Are " centers of LIFE"' to meet economic, social and spiritual needs and create a lasting legacy of hope and life. These LIFE centers can be a medical clinic, an oprhanage, a training center, a food factory, a church, a school or a retreat center. Whatever their function these centers bring life and hope to hurting people all over the world. There are now 12 LIFE Centers on four continents, with the newest opening in India and Ukraine this year and work continuing on the LIFE Center in Thailand
The heart and soul of LIFE Outreach is the LIFE Today ministry – an inspirational program reaching millions of people around the world through broadcast media. LIFE Today is committed to using this medium for its far reaching results. This is one of the greatest tools we have to impact the world with a message of true spiritual freedom.
With the help of our friends Mission Feeding provides food for 500,000 hungry children in Africa every day.God has used this outreach to save the lives of more than 7 million children, and that's why we say. "There's a miracle of life and love in every bowl!"
Is a new area of emphasis for LIFE with a goal to reach, rescue and restore women and children who are targeted by human traffickers and the global sex trade industry. It began in Thailand in 2008 with the "House of Destiny", and now expands to India, Romania and Cambodia. With your help we can reach an initial 2,000 women and children impacted by the horrors of human trafficking, by taking spiritual truth and practical help into the darkest areas of abuse.
Not only delivers clean, clear water with every well, but the wells become an ongoing witness of the love of God in the community. Every well is a wonderful gift of life, made possible with the help of our friends. Our Goal for 2010 is to drill 400 wells in 20 nations, with more than 2500 wells now in use, each serving an average of 1,000 people or more.
