The Missionaries of HBF

HBF invests in key men in key cultures throughout the world. HBF missionaries are biblically sound men committed to the great comission.  HBF supports missionaries in three primary ways: Prayerfully Financially Physically   We support Missionaries prayerfully through strategic prayer and support teams organized around specific missionaries. HBF currently has two prayer T.E.A.M.'s (Together Everyone Advances Missions)  which meet monthy to support key missionaires. Financially we support missionaries from our regular missions budget as well as offerings that are applied directly to missionaries needs. Physically we endeavor to place people on the ground to encourage and support both our approved and supported missionaires. It is not our desire to "use" missionaries for short term vacations for our people. We are committed to bringing consecrated, preparared believers to the missionary for thier use in reaching thier target culture.
