It is an honor and privilege to have a small part in helping further this ministry and their incredible labor of love. Their desire to help educate women in seeking an alternative to abortion and providing resources they would not otherwise receive is beautiful. They spread the love of God in raising up leaders to do the same across the globe.

Beautiful Feet International empowers local nationals to reach their community with training and resources for counseling through some of life's most difficult situations for women. It's an incredible ministry that never sets out to be foreign saviors but rather seeks to help others build meaningful connections in their own communities. They have all of my respect and support!

Beautiful Feet International is doing God’s work by presenting the gospel in pregnancy centers around the world but not only that- meeting physical needs of mothers and babies that they otherwise would not receive. In addition, they are committed to training directors at their centers so they are prepared to give the love and support to whoever walks through the centers doors. I have been involved with BFI for several years because God commands to take care of the least of these, what better way than to support pregnancy centers globally through BFI!

In 2013, I had the privilege of going on a missions trip with Beautiful Feet international. We went to Costa Rica and opened a pregnancy center in a home that was donated to the ministry. We held a VBS and went door-to-door, inviting children and families to come here the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We also went into town, and also on the beaches, sharing the gospel, beautiful feet is committed to making the gospel part of their service to women, and to saving the lives of the unborn. I can’t think of a better ministry, they now have pregnancy centers all around the world

Took my children on Beautiful Feet mission trips to Kantunilkin, Mexico. Loved that even at a young age, Beautiful Feet trains children on how to effectively share the gospel. Mission teams are well prepared, well fed, and really go all out to minister to the local communities. Great organization with a huge heart for the Lord.

Beautiful Feet is a wonderful ministry that is focused on serving Women, babies and families around the world. They introduce them all to Good News that God sent His son, Jesus, so that we can be reconnected to the God who created us. Jesus death and resurrection brought us the privilege of reconciliation as well as forgiveness.
I have had the privilege of traveling, training others for this work and leading Trauma Healing seminars with Beautiful Feet for many years.

Beautiful Feet International, a Christ centered ministry, is led by exceptional leaders who display passion, compassion and the mercy of Christ to those they serve around the world. They do an exceptional job of training Christian leaders to establish pregnancy care centers. These centers serve women, men and families who experience unplanned pregnancy and other critical emotional, physical and spiritual needs. The board and BFI staff are careful stewards of the resources they are given. Gifts and other forms of support to Beautiful Feet International are a great investment and provide eternal dividends!

BFI is an amazing ministry that is truly saving and changing lives all over the world, one mother and one child at a time, while spreading the gospel.
The support they provide to the mothers in need is what originally drew me to this mission. The responsible way they handle precious donor dollars, stretching each penny, with total transparency is commendable. Coming from a non-profit background, I find many things to admire and respect within this organization.
I am truly blessed to have found Beautiful Feet and will continue to support the organization.

Beautiful Feet International is a unique organization that is focused on meeting the needs of pregnant women on an international scale. It has taken the American crisis pregnancy center model and adapted it to fit the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of mothers in an appropriate cross cultural context. They use a model that equips and empowers local church and community leadership to function independently in a sustainable way. It is a pro life ministry that seeks save unborn life with a holistic approach that focuses on the mother. These centers are used for general pre pregnancy reproductive health and education, healthy pregnancy education with ultrasound, trauma counseling and healing, and practical material support for new mothers. Most importantly, this ministry never seems to lose sight of the gospel and its ultimate power to change lives. As a former board member, I have seen that you can trust that all money donated goes directly to ministry costs.

Beautiful Feet International is, in my opinion, the foremost nonprofit organization worldwide . The work that is done internationally , is funded by private sources and individuals. The profile of most of these who give reflects committed and loving people from all backgrounds who wish to help those who cannot help themselves . All that has been accomplished by BFI in the last decade has advanced the double cause of protection and provision for pre born babies and their mothers . It is an honor for me personally to be a contributing member of this organization and to know that the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is being promoted around the world.

Beautiful Feet truly helps one be the hands and feet of Christ. My family and I have been on many mission trips with BFI. We have ministered to children and families. We have been invited to give health presentations in middle and high schools. Each one of my children who went on missions with BFI felt like they made a big impact during their times aboard. Further, and upon returns, they fundraised for BFI so that more crisis pregnancy centers can be created overseas in areas where prenatal care is almost in existent. Definitely my favorite organization to change the world with.

We love Beautiful Feet International because it’s main mission is sharing the love of Jesus and sharing the Gospel with people all over the world . Their second mission is to help women to understand their babies are precious to God and that their life has value and a purpose. We pray that every pregnant mother knows she is not alone. She is loved supported and prayed for and that she has a miracle inside of her that God knows the number of hairs on that sweet babies head. We love to support this ministry because we believe with out a doubt their mission aligns with God’s word and the people who serve on their teams have a deep will to lead others to saving faith. Please consider joining our family to help BFI with this mission. We are not all called to go on mission trips around the world but we are all called to be missionaries and share the good news. Every dollar to BFI does exactly that!

I am privileged to support and partner in the work that Beautiful Feet does to establish pregnancy centers internationally. These countries may have little or no ability to provide prenatal services or medical help for pregnant women. Beautiful Feet stands in the gap to provide much needed medical, emotional and spiritual guidance along with practical help meeting the physical needs of these expectant mothers .

With over 50 gospel-centered pregnancy centers in at least 15 countries, Beautiful Feet International is working tirelessly to fill a huge worldwide need. 98 percent of abortions happen outside of the US, but only 2% of funds go outside of the US. Life is given by God and is precious and worthy of being saved!

I love this ministry so much, they care deeply about individuals as they serve mothers, children, and families through pregnancy centers. The pregnancy centers they have planted in many countries are staffed by compassionate and competent locals of the country. They not only provide physical needs for families, like providing clothes, baby food, diapers, wipes, etc., but also provide emotional, spiritual and relational support for the people they are serving.

Beautiful Feet International works with Bible-based churches to start their centers, three of which i have visited as a volunteer. They are openly pro-life, pro-women, and very evangelical as they share the gospel and love of Christ with any clients who are open to hear.

I have had the privilege of volunteering with BFI.

Clothes, diapers, supplies, and even gifts for workers and their children get sent out with love. To honor God and be his hands and feet in even the smallest ways is a tremendous blessing.

So glad this ministry is in Togo, a French African country. I pray it eventually spreads to other French African countries in the future. Hundreds of women are have saved their babies from abortion. These babies are big boys and girls now giving joy to their parents and us. We are so fortunate that this Pregnancy Center is established in Togo, West Africa.
Many girls have learnt about abstinence and preserving their lives for the glory of God till they get married through these centers. During this pandemic season where Churches are closed with no fellowship, some girls chose to be holy; although some have failed. We counted about 14 girls that got married in the Lord in less than six months. Praise the Lord!

Beautiful Feet International is so near and dear to our family. We served directly with BFI in Costa Rica for the last 3 years. They are the real deal!! They do so much to help meet physical needs through education materials, prenatal vitamins, non-diagnostic ultrasounds and necessities for babies and their families when they can. But most importantly they strive to meet the spiritual needs of the women and families. They are always pointing them to Jesus, while practically meeting their physical needs. We’ve seen first hand how this ministry works and it is truly amazing.
