🔥 Project J.F.I.R.E. – Mission Statement
Project J.F.I.R.E. was founded in loving memory of James Fedler, a brother, friend, and servant leader whose life journey reflected the very heart of redemption. James entered Nieves Ministries while fulfilling court-ordered community service hours, but what began as a legal requirement quickly became a personal transformation. He found purpose, healing, and direction through service—offering his time, his story, and his heart to others walking similar paths.
James was actively working toward restoring his life, using every volunteer hour not just to meet a requirement, but to make a difference. Tragically, before he could complete that journey, James Sadly passed away.
Project J.F.I.R.E. exists because we refuse to let his story end there.
This initiative carries forward the mission James had already begun—empowering people who need a second chance. Whether they are facing court mandates, struggling with addiction, re-entering society after incarceration, or simply looking to give back, Project J.F.I.R.E. creates a redemptive path through community service.
