OUTREACH
Jeff's mission has consistently encompassed building a close knit team of leaders, service projects for those in need, nurturing small growth groups, organizing large outreach events, and seizing unsolicited press opportunities.
He is currently writing the story of how Models for Christ began with a particular focus on documenting the remarkable life altering stories of God's work within the fashion industry through MFC. Here is one life story in video form.
In this video “Dying in the High Life” Danny Velasco shares his success as a celebrity hair and make-up artist until drugs forced him to live on the streets of New York City. Wanda, a successful model and member of Models for Christ, tells how God used her to reach out to Danny.
Jeff's journey has been an exciting one, driven by his response to God's calling. It began with the birth of Models for Christ in 1984, which expanded to IMPACT NY, reaching young professionals. This led to the creation of Priority Associates with Cru and the international growth of MFC. Jeff eventually moved to Palm Beach, Florida, joining Executive Ministries and ultimately founding Palm Beach for Christ.
God has provided numerous opportunities to share the Gospel, many of which have been generated by the attention Models for Christ (MFC) has garnered in the media.
These include appearances on 'Extra,' the NBC entertainment news show, a 30-minute Dutch National TV documentary, 'Good Day New York,' a morning news show, the 'CBN 700 Club,' and the TBN talk show. Additionally, MFC has been featured in articles in prestigious publications such as The New York Times, Detroit Free Press, Guidepost, Christianity Today, San Francisco Chronicle, Miami Herald, Village Voice, and many more. Radio press has also played a part, with appearances on shows like 'All Things Considered' on National Public Radio and interviews on the Moody Radio Network and other various other radio platforms.
All of these opportunities are listed to give glory to God for the amazing chance to witness His work.
We hope you are encouraged and seize the opportunities that God provides for you as well.
