David Parsons networks with churches, schools, organizations, individuals, and businesses to help them
engage their community for Christ. As a North American Mission Board missionary, he comes alongside
local churches by helping them begin new types of ministries to reach the unchurched youth in their
community. This connection of churches to community is the focus of his ministry, as well as training
churches to mentor fatherless boys and girls and discipling men in the marketplace. David and the members
of his ministry believe that every church can be connected to their community and be on mission for God.
