About Us
Our Board of Directors
Who We Are
The Way of Yeshua Ministries Inc.is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Sun City, Arizona. We teach the Scriptures, keep the appointed times of the Lord, and put that faith to work through practical outreach — sending communion and Holy Day supplies to people in prison, repairing donated vehicles for families who need transportation, and working toward dignified housing for unhoused neighbors.
The ministry is led by a volunteer board of directors. We are a young organization and we would rather tell you plainly what we are doing than overstate it. You can see exactly which of our programs are serving people today and which are still being built on our program status list.
