CHANGING FOCUS MINISTRIES
Reaching the Isolated in the Pacific
Changing Focus Ministries is currently based in the Viti Levu Island Chain, Fiji. Our yacht, Cloud Nine, is in Vuda Marina.
In 2022, Changing Focus Ministries sailed 23 days from the Marshall Islands to Fiji.  This was necessary due to the vessel needing a haul-out for repairs and painting.  Through prayer and confirmation with our prayer partners, God has directed us to partner with Marine Reach Fiji, located in Latouka.   Marine Reach Fiji is a dental/medical missions organization reaching the villages in the Viti Levu island chain.
Our Ministry from 2015 – 2022 has been based in the Marshall Islands.  Our vision, was to reach every inhabited island to share God’s love with all we encountered, to give Marshallese bibles to every household on every island, and to provide for their physical needs by bringing medical help, reading glasses, clothing, and much more.  We will continue our programs in the Marshall Islands, and also serve in Fiji while God has us here.

Online Giving

Thank you for partnering with us!
God provides for the ministry of our church through your tithes and offerings and your gifts are honored with faithful stewardship, ethical business practices, and accountability to our executive leadership team and denomination. It’s more than keeping the lights on, it’s about personal worship to God and handing Him back what He already owns - and it’s about Transforming the Heart of our City Through relationships with God and People.

1 Chronicles 29:14
But who am I, and who are my people, that we should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from you, and we have given you only what comes from your hand.”

Other ways to give

God’s Word calls us to obediently “tithe” (give 10%) of what He gives us, to do His kingdom work. “Offerings” given to God are gifts above and beyond our tithes. Tithes and offerings are vital to the health of Our Church and provide for all the areas of ministry and outreach. (Malachi 3:10)

An offering is a gift above the tithe that God speaks to your heart to give to. That might mean being lavishly generous or simply sacrificial…like sacrificing a fast food meal or Starbucks. What you give as an offering should be decided between you and God, and He asks that you give in some way from a worshipful heart and prayerful consideration.

2 Corinthians 9:7-8 “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart what to give, not reluctantly of under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.”

Thank you for the many ways that you partner with us to advance the gospel and the Kingdom of God.

WORLD MISSIONS
