Project 612 – Hoad Ministry

James has had a heart for missions since he was young. Growing up, he was involved with local church and camp ministries. Originally from the USA, James moved to Merritt, BC, where he now lives with his family among the Nlaka’pamux (Thompson People) and Syilx (Okanagan People) First Nations. James ministers among a local Native fellowship (church), equipping believers, connecting, and serving/supporting youth and families. He is also the interim Director of Mobilization (recruitment) for NAIM, ministering with a team to see the next generation mobilized. Ministry among North American First Nations is based on relationships, and through those relationships the love of Jesus and the truly good news of salvation are shared in word and action.
