Building Bridges Through Faith and Practical Love.
JBU Association connects people, churches, ministries, and communities through faith expressed in practical love. Across borders and communities, we serve alongside local churches and ministries through biblical formation, prayer, compassionate service, leadership development, and mission partnership.
We seek to be the hands and feet of Christ, not replacing the work God has already established, but strengthening, connecting, and serving alongside it so that the hope of the gospel may reach people, communities, and the next generation.

Esperanza — Becoming a Hope for the Church
Members of Esperanza Church began practicing Scripture meditation on their own, meeting weekly or every other week to share the grace they receive from the Word. In their commitment to stand before the Word for the next three years, we see the hope of a church being established in faith and growing in self-reliance.
