About Faith Ministries

Faith Ministries is a church based outreach with a burden for the lost and compassion for the hurting. Faith Ministries preaches faith for today, hope for tomorrow, and the power of God's love to change lives.

Faith Ministries History

Faith Ministries' pastoral directors are Calvin and Barbara Scott.  They began working part-time in Mexico in 1985 and then in 1987 moved to the border town of Douglas, Arizona and began working as full-time missionaries. Since then they have established a headquarters church in Douglas, Arizona and mission outreach stations in the towns of Cumpas, Villa Hidalgo, and Navajoa, Sonora, Mexico.

Mission Mexico History

Mission Mexico began in 1985 and for the first five years operated as a home based ministry of helps. Faith Ministries construction teams helped build two churches in Mexico and developed a ministry of distribution to the poor. Many tons of food, clothing, Christian literature, and medical supplies brought relief to the needy.

From 1990 to 2000 Faith Ministries operated with a 10-year plan to target specific areas of northern Sonora for evangelism and planting of new churches. There were numerous outreaches in 25 communities and 9 churches were established.  Faith Ministries helped with the construction of 7 of them. The outreaches helped to give each community a positive attitude toward Christianity.

On January 1, 2000 Faith Ministries began a new 25-year assignment from the Lord to expand into and develop new areas beyond Sonora, throughout Latin America, and around the globe.

Within the first six years of the new millennium a mission station was established in Navojoa, Sonora where Bob and Miki Scott lived and served as field directors for Faith Ministries. Bob and Miki ministered in numerous churches of the area and did outreaches in many surrounding communities that had never before heard the plan of salvation. They established a ministry training school, El Shaddai Missions Training Institute, where they imparted to the local people zeal and anointing to reach the lost around the world and establish churches.

Faith Ministries has also established ministry roots in the area of Batopilas, Chihuahua. It is a very remote, rugged area where there are 5 canyons deeper than the Grand Canyon. Many people live beyond any roads and the roads that are there are generally just caterpillar trails cut into the mountains and canyons. There are a vast number of communities without a Christian witness and people can be found who have never heard the name of Jesus Christ. Faith Ministries has been doing Christmas programs there since 2002 and helped build a church and assist pastors Luis and Micaela Maulas to reach Batopilas and surrounding communities.

In 2006 they temporarily relocated to the Arizona/Mexico border to establish an El Shaddai Missions Training Institute in Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico. Also to intercede for the people and city of Douglas, Arizona, and to prepare for their next assignment on the mission field.
