Welcome to Risk Takers for Christ, a multi-faceted sports ministry to at-risk youth and the community at-large.

Risk Takers for Christ’s mission is to reach at-risk youth and the community at-large with the Gospel of Jesus Christ by engaging them in athletic competition and providing positive male role models.

Our goal is to reach at-risk youth with the Gospel before they get into trouble with the law.

What We Do… and Why

Based on our 35 years of prison ministry experience, we are convinced that a leading cause of criminal behavior is the lack of a positive male role model in the lives of young men. Broken homes and fatherless families create a void that is too often filled by gangs, drugs, and violence.

For these reasons, we operate the following “front line” outreaches:

• Living H2O Initiative, a twice-weekly sports outreach to at-risk youth in our community
• Periodic Sports Camps and Basketball Tournaments for at-risk youth throughout the yearWe also seek to encourage and equip believers to become spiritual “risk takers” through our weekday Dare 2B Daring devotional messages and our monthly ministry newsletter, Take a Risk! To subscribe for FREE to either or both publications, visit our Contact Page or email info@risktakersforchrist.org.

  In 2022, we also planted a new church at Midway Estates, an RV and manufactured home community in Vero Beach. Midway Bible Fellowship meets weekly to proclaim God’s Truth and demonstrate His love. Our slogan is “biblical teaching… traditional hymns… and casual dress.”

  Midway Bible Fellowship meets every Sunday morning at the Midway Estates clubhouse, 1950 S U.S. Highway 1 in Vero Beach. Free coffee and donuts are served at 9:30 AM and our Worship Service begins at 10:00 AM. Guests and visitors are always welcome!

  Our newest ministry is Grandparents for a Godly America, a coalition of Christian grandparents who want to see their children and grandchildren grow up in a safe, strong, and moral America. For more information, please click on this link.
