About Us
“Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'
There is no commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:30-
“So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you,
you should love each other. Your love for one another will prove to the world
that you are my disciples.” John 13:34-
“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!” Psalm 133:1
In Jesus' Name Ministries was founded in 1986 by Court and Sandy Wood as a 501(c)3
ministry, dedicated to helping the poor in the Name of Jesus Christ. We began by
distributing tractor-
In Jesus’ Name Ministries is still helping the poor, and supporting personal evangelism and discipleship here in the U.S. We are doing this through “Inner City Evangelism” (Joe Cowan, evangelist & teacher); a regional ministry, with evangelism, and discipleship training.
In 1991, we began to receive cries for help from Christian congregations in India, the Philippines, and several African countries. As we prayed and sought the Lord concerning these urgent needs, it became obvious we had to respond. We began sending help to our needy brethren in these countries, and even though at first the gifts were very small, they responded with such gratefulness. We then began contacting area churches and individuals asking for their help as well. Because of the wonderful responses we received, we were able to begin to send regular designated financial gifts to pastors and the poor in their congregations. We asked each pastor to use half of the gift for their own families, and give the remaining half to the poor and suffering in their congregations. With permission, the donors names and addresses were given with the gift, and wonderful relationships began between our American brethren and brethren in other countries. We trusted the Lord to take care of our needs as we gave 100% of all designated gifts to our family that was suffering and in such great need.
We had made a commitment to the Lord and to each other, that we would live carefully and not luxuriously if He would allow us to give 100% of all designated gifts to the poor. He has been so faithful to us over the years, and we have tried to be faithful to Him. We have endeavored to keep our home, office and daily living expenses to a minimum. The glory goes to our faithful Lord.
Later, we also shared about our responsibility to help our needy brethren on a few radio broadcasts asking for help on their behalf. Again, hearts were moved to compassion and more help began to come in. After receiving help from their American family, the responses of gratitude from our brethren in other countries have been overwhelming. All of the glory goes to the Lord Jesus Christ.
There are still so many brothers and sisters in third world countries that desperately
need our help. In Jesus’ Name Ministries is committed to do what we can for our family
in Jesus Christ, and are asking you to join with us in bringing relief to them. Will
you please pray about becoming a partner with us? We have been motivated by the
exhortation of our Lord in Matthew 25: 31-

Since 1997 our donors and prayer partners have made a huge difference
in the lives of many persecuted Christians in our world.
“Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven
that will not be exhausted,
where no thief comes near and no moth destroys. For where your treasure is,
there your heart will be also”. Luke 12:33 b-
100% of all designated gifts are used as designated.
Thank you on behalf of the Body of Christ!
