Become an International First Responder

You don't need to settle for status quo.

You were created to live a life of greatness.

Wars are igniting. Earthquakes, flooding, and death are reality. Loved ones are going missing. Families are being torn apart. People are dying without ever hearing the Good News.

That's why, at Chazak Rescue, we equip and send this generation into war zones and natural disasters around the world. Through our training, cadets are able to earn college degrees as they complete both classroom instruction alongside hours of on-the-field, real-life experience.

When deploying, we focus on both hard-to-reach areas and unreached people groups from around the globe.

How Chazak Rescue Is Changing Lives

Fighting was intense. Adults and children alike were being used as human shields to protect Isis personnel. Stationed only a few miles away, we were within eyesight of daily bombings.

Slowly the Iraqi army began pushing through Mosul, freeing people from Isis control. We began building relationships with local residents and soldiers. We asked what we could do to help.

The answer was clear. People were being shot. The local doctor in charge wanted our help.

There was just one problem. Our team didn’t have medical training.

Today, we’re calling this generation to rise to the challenge. We are equipping young people with the necessary training and experience to take the Gospel straight into the front lines.
