Who We Are – Arizona Reservation Ministries

Who Are We?

ARM is based upon just two principals; the first, is to “let GOD lead.” With HIM at the helm, adventures unfold often…and miraculously! The second principal is based upon Exodus chapter 17. In the story written there, Moses’ ARMs are raised as God instructed, and Isreal is winning the battle in the valley below against the Amelekites. Because Moses is human, his ARMs got tired. Aaron and Hur sat him on a rock, and helped hold up his ARMs so that Isreal might be victorious.

We provide God’s ARMs around the San Carlos Apache Reservation. Those ARMs provide the shoulder for someone to cry on. The hands to pray, provide food, clothing, build a new home or remodel a broken one, help a child learn to rollerblade, baptize them, sort school items, stuff backpacks and Christmas stockings, serve food and pray over Apache pastors and their wives, and much….much more. So…what do we do? Provide our ARMs, as well as our hearts as God leads, to come alongside the San Carlos Apache Nation so that they will know of God’s great love for them, and add their ARMs to this process as well. We are keenly aware of the concept formulated so well in the book entitled, “When Helping Hurts.” All that we do must flow from God’s leading, restoring the dignity our Native brothers and sisters most certainly deserve.

The ARM Team

God has called this team to some VERY big tasks! So big, that without His help, they would be impossible. We are "family." If interested in joining this family, please feel free to contact us if interested in joining the ARM Team. Prayer is imperative! Our Application includes a Code of Ethical Conduct that we expect all to follow, as this is truly a ministry...not simply a job.

Horizons article

In this edition of Horizon’s Magazine, we were blessed to participate as their featured mission. Please note the two articles; “A Tale of Two Mothers” reveals the significantly different lives of families where Jesus is Lord…and where the influences of alcohol, abuse and gang activity prevail. Please pray for both families and the others like them on the San Carlos Apache Reservation who must daily strive for a spiritually, physically and emotionally healthy life against great odds. The second article was written to motivate citizens of these United States to realize the history we have created, and God’s mandate to repair what has been broken. We’d appreciate your comments! Thanks for reading!
