Salvation by Faith
Found through faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ,
salvation transforms our lives.
Heritage Youth Missions exists to make a lasting difference. Every
project we undertake is fueled by a desire to serve, rebuild, and inspire change that lasts for
generations.
Through creative fundraising and hands-on outreach, we multiply our resources by
investing in high-impact projects that empower youth to serve and spark renewal in the communities that
need it most.
OUR IMPACT
Through crisis response, service, and revival, we move with purpose, faith, and hope—making an impact that echoes through generations.
Each year, graduating students from Heritage School travel the world to serve communities in need. This capstone trip is more than a celebration—it's a launch into a life of purpose, service, and global impact.
Our goal isn't just to complete projects—it's to raise up servant-hearted leaders who bring light into dark places, hope into broken communities, and strength where families are struggling to stand.
OUR JOURNEY
June 1973
Lower East Side Beginnings
Blair and Regina Adams moved to Manhattan’s Lower East Side, began a small peace church, and welcomed people from many backgrounds into the community that formed around it.
Early Years
Home Education
Families began educating their children at home, seeking an approach that formed the whole person and reinforced the cooperative values they were learning together.
1970s
Growing Their Own Food
The community cultivated small plots around New York and New Jersey, learning to participate more directly in the work of growing food and sustaining daily life.
Early Years
Care Across Generations
Home birth, care for elders, and support for disabled members became expressions of a shared commitment to serve one another through every stage of life.
Colorado
Journey West and Rehoboth Ranch
About one hundred close-knit people moved west, learned the fundamentals of farming, and eventually established a 700-acre farm where they raised crops and worked with horses.
Texas
Journey to Brazos de Dios
After receiving their first church building, the community moved to central Texas, settled near Elm Mott on land known as Brazos de Dios, and began building homes, gardens, and workshops.
