We help bridge the gap between the missionary who is struggling to find and afford skillful construction labor and the
everyday christian who also is called to participate in the great commission.
In 2014, Desh and Kath Esh went PA Mission Builders to YWAM Kona, in Hawaii. While there, they met Sam Kimmel and Rob Graham from Last Frontier Ministries in Alaska, a ministry who serves the Lord by sharing the gospel in the Alaskan interior.
Through conversation Desh learned of their need for more facilities such as a heated shop and a discipleship school campus to continue their ministry efforts to the villages in Alaska.
A while after they got home, Last Frontier Ministries reached out asking for some help to build their shop building which now serves as a repair shop for the ministry vehicles and a warehouse for ministry supplies as well as staff housing in two apartments upstairs.
In 2016 Desh and a few friends and acquaintances made the trip to Alaska and put up the shop building shell in two weeks. The next few summers were busy, as they took more and more teams up to Alaska to work on various projects on the campus and by 2020 it became apparent that the need for construction on the mission field was much greater than what just one family and their friends could fulfill.
In 2021, Flashpoint Missions was formed as a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing skilled construction labor to established ministries in need of facilities in order to expand their ministry and fulfill their god-given calling.
At first, Flashpoint Missions expanded their construction ministry within Alaska by sending volunteer teams to various ministries working in the Alaskan interior. In 2023 we sent our first international team overseas to Asia through a connection made in Alaska, and since then have sent more than a dozen construction teams to help ministries in Nepal, Germany, Italy and Papua New Guinea.
We serve Mission Organizations and Churches from various places on the globe. If you or a ministry you know is in need of construction labor, please reach out to us today. We are here to serve those who are answering the call to serve god in the field!
Flashpoint Missions is not only about construction projects, but also about building relationships, sharing the love of Christ, and witnessing the power of God at work.
