Our History

 

Inspired to Impact

 

Birthed out of the vision of our Founder, Dr. Jason Jackson, The Lion’s Den Missions Base (TLD) is driven by seeing ALL people fulfill their talents and gifts. TLD leaders and volunteers demonstrate compassion and sensitivity in the face of human adversity and life challenges.  TLD has an aggressive goal of training and coordinating teams to deploy material and human resources and support throughout Continental US and abroad. To reach this goal, we enlist the service of gifted individuals, from all walks of life who are willing to be trained and mobilized in service to others. Wherever you live, whatever your background the Lion’s Den Missions Base welcomes your talent.  We use our vast network of government relationships, para-ministries and non-profit partners to overcome geographical hurdles.  In short, once trained we will find a place where your gifts and talents may thrive.

 

Based on the core belief that there is a great need to transform the societies of the world into active participants, TLD was established to answer the call of creating platforms to mobilize those who wish to serve others. In other words, we turn “seekers” into “doers”.  We solve problems, improve lives, connect with others and strengthen communities, while transforming our own lives to its original purpose.  We initiate partnerships at the local community, regional and national levels, to ensure strategic communication, response and delivery of services in disaster relief.  We mobilize to identify shared interests and pool efforts, weaving them into a plan ready for action.  We demonstrate, educate and provide training for skill acquisition.  We intervene, facilitate and lubricate the wheels of change, bring stability and comfort during times of crises. With your help, we can go even further. We are the Lion’s Den Missions Base.  Join us in this mission to equip, train and mobilize in improving the lives of others.  Everyone who wants to help others is welcome!
