ABOUT BREAKOUT MINISTRIES

'See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.' Isaiah 43:19

OUR VISION
Serving the local church, through American sports camps, to the glory of God.


OUR AIM 

Extending God’s Kingdom through American sports camps, initiating youth ministries, communities and church plants.  

THE PROBLEM 

We are seeing a decline in overall church attendance, especially among families and young people. Those who identify as “Christians” are now a minority; 46.2%, down from 59.3% a decade earlier. Studies have shown that declining finances, lack of time and people are having a direct impact on those being reached with the number of trained youth workers falling by 52% in the last 10 years and 70% of youth work is run by volunteers. 
 

 

 

THE SOLUTION

But there is hope...According to the 2022 Talking Jesus survey 1 in 3 people who hear about Jesus want to know more.  We tell them more about Jesus by initiating church plants and youth ministries through American sports camps, by partnering with the local churches.  The camps create direct opportunities for intentional engagement with the community and the Gospel that will lead to establishing youth ministries, church plants and communities. 

 

We work with the local church, helping create strategy and lasting impact, shaping the camp around their goal. We help train leaders in the local communities so they continue to run camps sustainably and effectively.
 

Since 2022, there has been

  • 9 camps 

  • 652 people directly impacted

  • 222 young people  have attended the camps and heard the Gospel

  • 77% of Churches saw follow-up ministries created or developed

  • 80% of which are still going after 6 months

  • 30% of those who've been on a camp are now involved in a follow-up ministry

  • 75% of those still attending 6 months later

  • 88% of Churches have signed up for another camp

  • 66% of Churches reported that people gave their lives to Christ as a result of the camp

  • 66% increase in camps from 2024 - 2025

  • We've helped 1 Church plant to launch and become established

  • We've helped create 3 youth ministries 

  • We have 10 camps booked in for 2025

In 2024, after running a further 6 camps, which is a 300% increase, we have seen the gospel preached to over 80 young people and many more adults. We have seen lives committed to Christ on follow up ministries and at least 1 new ministry created with others strengthened and invested in. People have started attending church and have made commitments to Christ off the back of our camps. We have also helped launch one church plant.  As one pastor put it, “it would have taken us a year to achieve in the community (relationships, trust, impact) what was achieved in one Breakout camp.
