In this episode, I speak with Kristen Crisp about Feeding Faith, her non-profit Christian humanitarian mission in Guatemala. Feeding Faith is a Christian humanitarian organization that is focused on increasing the peace, energy, and faith in Jesus Christ through healing, feeding, building, moving, and caring for those in need both domestically and internationally.

A long-time retail manger and visual designer, Kristen spent more than 30+ years in these fields before making a gradual switch to the wellness industry in 2008. She has a strong passion for helping and healing those who are struggling to heal themselves. She has worked the past few years in-depth with special needs populations such as the developmentally disabled and the elderly.

Kristen began participating on week-long mission trips in 2016, and shortly after that, she and her husband, Julian, felt that they were called to go help underserved populations full time, thus their mission, Feeding Faith, was born, and they relocated to Guatemala in early 2020.

Her long-time tag line/quote is “Find yourself and love what you find” and she feels that through humanitarian and Christian aid, this can apply to anyone who is assisted and encouraged to see themselves as they truly are; lovely, amazing, human beings, made in the image of God.

Check Kristen and Feeding Faith out, and see where and how you can help, using any of the methods listed below.
