Imitate Jesus

Imitate Jesus We equip believers to engage others like Jesus. It beings with an AWARENESS of fear. In November 2013 (before UVBO existed) we visited Casa de Belen.

In time our Bicycle repair skills grew and we repaired a mountain of broken bicycles with the support of Youth For Christ and Waldrons Outdoor Sports. In October 2016, we (UVBO) came under the umbrella of Umpqua Valley Youth For Christ. Since then we have began to invest into more of our communities youth while impacting individuals and families in need. After loosing our bike shop and drop-in cen

ter retail space in 2021, we entered the homes of our youth apprentices. It was then that we recognized there was a desperate need to support families, and that to meet the needs we would have to multiply our efforts. God gave us a desire to find and equip believers with a heart for the vulnerable. For several years God has lead us through the development of what has becoming known as Imitate Jesus. Imitate Jesus isn't so much a program or organization as it is a trauma informed discipleship framework and training opportunity for every believer. Because believer's can't engage what they do not see. We help them see fear like Jesus.

Breaking down our trauma informed discipleship framework.

Here is a quick run through of our FAITH principles.




06/12/2026

Our trauma informed discipleship framework includes 5 sets of principles in the form of acronyms so that you can:

1. Recall them easily.
2. Use them in Bible Study.

Though it is supported by scripture first, what opened our eyses to see it came from the work done at the Karyn Purvis Institute of Child Development Empowered to Connect and Show Hope teams.

Before I share the Imitate Jesus framework know this. I am a mission minded guy that loves Jeaus. Not a pastor or therapist.
