About A4J
Our Story
All4Jesus was founded by Jared and Cindy Martin after several mission trips to Africa. God’s calling upon their heart was to come alongside orphans in Africa and bring them the tangible love of Jesus Christ through the provision of physical and spiritual nourishment: healthy food, safe shelter, education, and a loving Christian environment. Our current project is to build and support an orphanage for 50 of Swaziland’s most vulnerable children. We will also reach out to all the people of Swaziland through HOPE programs to help alleviate HIV/AIDS, hunger, poverty, malnutrition, disease, and lack of education.

It is amazing how many miracles God has performed to guide us to this point. Yet, it started with a very simple prayer of dedicating all we are and all we have for Jesus’ glory. May our lives confess His love without saying a word.”For even Christ did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many.”Mat 20:28 |
How it all began
In 2006, God pierced our hearts for His children in Africa; Children so much in need that just to survive is a blessing. During the time we spent in Swaziland and Kenya, our heavenly Father allowed us to see that we have so much more than we need and these children need so much more than they have.
We saw things that should not exist….. starvation, disease, extreme poverty, oppression, and death.
God opened our eyes to a dying world in need of Hope. And we knew that True Hope could only come through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
In January of 2007, because of God’s great mercy, we came to the life decision that Jesus was all we wanted in this world. We had seen abundance and we had seen great need…… nothing mattered except having Jesus.
In light of God’s amazing love toward us we have freely sold our house to downsize and use the profits to build a home for the orphans in Swaziland. We have the great hope of saving 50 orphaned or abandoned children and bring them into an abundant life of joy and love in Christ Jesus.
Goal
Reduce our life and “give life” to orphans in Jesus’ Name.
“I must decrease. Christ must increase.” John 3:30
We believe that God is calling each one of us, just as we are, to reach out and find a way to share His love.

Our Mission
Our mission from God is to build a home for orphaned children where the love and grace of our LORD Jesus Christ reigns High.
We have seen the desperate needs of the children in Swaziland with 44% of the child population living as orphans or vulnerable to becoming orphaned. Over 1/2 of the adult population in Swaziland is HIV+ and 69% live on less than $1.00 a day. Our desire is to bring Hope in a time of great hopelessness. We want these precious children to not only hear that God loves them but even more importantly, believe His love for them through the provision of food, shelter, medical care, education, and a loving family environment.
Our goal is to raise all the funds needed to build and fund an orphanage which will save the lives of 50 orphaned or abandoned children.
All4Jesus is a 501c(3) organization and your donation is tax deductible. 100% of your gift will be used to build the orphanage and change the lives of vulnerable children in Swaziland.
The vision is for the orphanage to be completely self sustainable including 5 childrens homes, a kitchen/dining hall, missionary house, chicken project, fruit trees, dairy goats, water well, electricity, volunteer huts, preschool, maize harvest, and Moringa trees. All of these blessings will be made available to the surrounding community for physical and spiritual nourishment in the Name of Jesus Christ.

Our Partners
All4Jesus has been working in Swaziland for three years through our partnership programs with several nonprofit Christian organizations already accomplishing God’s amazing work in the nation.
Pasture Valley Children’s Home -
“In Faith We Grow” is the motto of Pasture Valley Farm and Children’s Home. Peter and Michelle Cubbin established their ministry in 2003 with the aim of providing a loving, Christian home to neglected and orphaned children from the southern Shiselweni region of Swaziland. Aware of the hundreds of neglected, orphaned and struggling children in the region, the Cubbin family had long felt a calling to do more than just farming. In 2002, after hearing the inspiring story of a South African farmer and evangelist who was caring for 20 orphans on his farm, they felt that they could do the same on their farm. Currently, Pasture Valley cares for 12 boys and 11 girls on the farm. Ranging in age from just a few months to 18 years. READ MORE

El Shaddai Ministry-
Through our partnership with El Shaddai Ministries in the remote northwest mountains of Swaziland we were able to build the El Shaddai Komati Children’s Home. This home will be a place for many orphanned and abandoned children to find the love and grace of Jesus Christ. All4Jesus was able to provide the funding to construct two individual homes on the property giving a safe and loving place for 20 children. God also allowed us to provide the funding to build a Mission House, large Kichen Hall, water well, and the needed furnishings for all the homes. We praise God for giving us the opportunity to be a part of this amazing mission.

* Jesus is “the Image of the invisible God” Col 1:15, “the fullness of God” Col 1:19, “all the fullness of the Diety in bodily form” Col 2:9 . We believe Jesus Christ is God, Yaweh, in the flesh….fully God and fully man.
* “We have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God.” 1 John 4:14. We believe in testifying to the world about the salvation of God in Jesus Christ His Son.
* “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast”. Eph 2:8.
