"Growing up in Los Angeles, CA, seconds away from where the 1992 LA riots started, I needed ways to stay out of trouble. With few after-school programs and lots of free time, I often found myself exposed to the negative aspects of the inner city. Victor Marx, founder of All Things Possible Ministries, has truly been a blessing to the community and to me"

"If you build a child, you will not have to repair an adult"
|
Dear Champion of Troubled Youth,
I have heard it said, "Build a child and you won't have to repair an adult."
My goal is to help our most troubled youth find hope and healing in Christ. Last year there were 2.3 million juvenile arrests in
America. Many of our nation's 600,000 incarcerated boys and girls come from backgrounds of extreme abuse and neglect. This is not an excuse for the poor choices that many of these young people have made. But there is no excuse for us if we ignore Jesus' command to help those who are hurting. Consider these quotes from God's Word:
"Let the little children come to me, and forbid them not, for such is the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 19:14)
"I was in prison and you came to visit me." (Matthew 25:36)
"Remember those in prison as if you were in prison with them." (Hebrews 13:3)
The Lord cares deeply for these little ones in prison, and He asks us to reach out to them with love and compassion. Kids as young as nine-years-old are locked up behind bars during the playtime of other children. Something is seriously wrong in our culture, and it's a problem that we cannot ignore.
Is it a hopeless situation? No way! Because "with God all things are possible!" I stand as a living testimony of God's miraculous saving grace! He has called us to the very exciting work of setting captives free -whether they are in or out of prison. We are seeing the glorious fruits of this labor on a daily basis. Won't you join us in this exciting work by becoming a sponsor, a pen pal, or a prayer pal for these hurting youth? The rewards are out of this world!
Because of Him, Because of them,
Victor Marx
President /Founder, A.T.P.

All Things Possible Ministries |
| Our Vision: |
| To Evangelize, Equip, and Encourage troubled Youth, in order to see the cycle of sin broken in their lives so that God may be glorified. |
|
| Our Mission: |
| To reach the HEART of kids who are considered "Beyond Risk", but not beyond the Love of Christ. |
|
| What We Do: |
|
We are an evangelistic ministry that reaches out to high risk kids across the United States. We go to our nations incarcerated youths (ages 9 and up) that have been put in short or long term jail for crimes that range from theft to gang related murders.
By performing exciting martial arts demos for the youth mixed with humor (kind of like a cross between Jackie Chan and Barney Fife), we see these kids listen with great attentiveness to a message of hope. A.T.P. is a high yeild fruit bearing ministry, thanks to our many partners who pray and support us. |
|
| How We Do It: |
| We go into these prisons and put on entertaining programs such as karate demonstrations, music, etc. We also bring in sports personalities and ex-cons for one purpose; to get the kids attention and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ to bring them to repentance and a new life in Christ. |
 |
| How We Follow-Up: |
- LOCAL CHRISTIANS, often the prison Chaplains and local volunteers from churches continue to follow up and disciple those who have come to faith.
- PEN PALS . We hand the kids follow up cards that are self addressed and stamped that they can mail to us the next day with details of how the Lord touched them as well as areas they need help in; anger, forgiveness. Growth in Christ, etc.
- HOMETOWN CHURCHES, churches in these kids home towns, as best we can we follow up on them once they are released for discipleship, etc.
- ALWAYS LOOKING to developing a network of large and small businesses that will train and hire these kids giving them employment to see them establish themselves in the free (instead of drug dealing, prostitution, gang activity).
|
| How You Can Help: |
|
We need Christians who will partner with us first in prayer and then financial support to reach those we call "The Forgotten Ones". |
