Whether through sports ministry, construction, feeding hungry children, or offering medical services, HTF reaches out with a loving hand that leads others to Him. Over the past 14 years, HTF has ministered to over 945,000 people in Cuba, Ecuador, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Peru & Venezuela with over 84,000 making decisions for Christ!
Cuba Sports Ministry "I just wanted to let you know what an honor and a privilege it was to participate in your ministry. My experiences on this trip have left a permanent mark on my soul. The 'Cuba for Christ' ministry is on very solid footing and is doing impressive things in the face of less than favorable odds. You have some true warriors on the front lines there that are carrying out God’s message each day. Their sacrifice, determination and passion are truly moving and inspiring." Anson Merrick, Columbia, SC
