Missionaries and Global Workers
Our goal is to train and send out our own missionaries, as well as lend support to missionaries and mission agencies who match our strategy. We provide missionary families a portion of their financial support, along with regular prayers and many other tangible tools to aid their ministries. It’s a privilege to have such a dynamic relationship with our missionaries, and we want everyone at Christ Fellowship to personally know them and pray for them, too!

Ryan & Amarilys
Ryan and Amarilys are long-term global workers sent out by Christ Fellowship as part of our global strategic plan. This young couple is living and serving in a place hostile toward the gospel yet hungry for the truth. Their long-term goal and heart is to develop, empower, and release national leaders in the movement God has already begun there. Their current focus for the moment, though, is language-learning as they seek to better communicate to and empathize with the culture they've been sent to. They appreciate your prayers for rapid language-learning, effective work there, strength, and wisdom. Feel free to contact them at

ISI’s Friendship Partner Program
Brent & Teresa Whitmore
Friendship Partner Coordinators
972.377.9124
Knocking at our doors with open hearts and minds, thousand of students from over a hundred countries around the world are coming to America for a university education. They are the brightest and best, the most affluent and influential in their homelands. At least 60% of these students come from the least evangelized countries in the world. What more fertile soil for world evangelism than these students who come knocking at our door? Will you open the door to one of these international students who will attend the University of Texas at Dallas this fall? They are anxious to learn about the American culture and by including them in simple family activities, you will be opening a world to them that is virtually locked without you. They can go on all the tours; see all the museums, but you hold a rare key… a look on the inside of a Christian American family. Priceless!
All you have to do is...
- Attend an orientation session.
- Be a friend to an international student.
- Love Jesus and want to share His love.
- Commit to get together with your student once a month, e-mail or call once a week and pray for him/her often.
