Who We Are

Joe and Kris Jordan are the founders of Jordan Outreach Ministries International in Coachella, California.

Joe and Kris Jordan were married in 1988 and served as missionaries in Hong Kong for the first five months of their marriage.  Upon returning to the United States, they worked hand-in-hand on Skid Row in Los Angeles at Fred Jordan Missions until 1997.

In the fall of 1997, with their first child on the way, Jesus called Joe and Kris to move to the Coachella Valley to begin a ministry to impoverished children and families. Seven days after their daughter’s birth, they resigned from Fred Jordan Missions and relocated to Coachella, California, to answer God’s call.

In 2000, their son was born, and, in 2001, they founded Jordan Outreach Ministries International, a Christian, non-profit, 501(c)3 ministry.

In 2018, Jesus called Joe and Kris also to lead Fred Jordan Missions. With both ministries under their leadership, they split their time between the Coachella Valley and Los Angeles “Declaring and Demonstrating the Love of Jesus” through both organizations.

Joe is a pastor, evangelist, and leadership mentor. He shares on weekly television on “Fred Jordan Missions with Joe Jordan,” airing on KDFX Palm Springs Channel 33 on Sundays at 7:00 am and KCOP Los Angeles Channel 13 on Sundays at 8:00 am. He is also dedicated to helping teach and train others to evangelize their communities, share the gospel, and meet the needs of the poor.

Kris is an author, a Bible study teacher, and a passionate defender of the faith. She has written several Bible studies on putting your faith into action. She has also written an apologetics resource book and is the creator of scripturesubjects.net, a website designed to help believers understand, substantiate, and defend biblical doctrines and truths.
