Hands and Feet Ministries was started by Roy and Michelle Adams in 2000. In the summer of 1999 Roy Adams led a menʼs short-term mission trip to Chamacueros, MX. On that trip Royʼs life was forever changed. As a result he desired to take his wife and children on a mission trip with him the next year. Roy was compelled to start Hands and Feet Ministries when, after expressing his desire to the group he had traveled with the year before, he was told that the mission field is no place for women or children. Ten years later Hands and Feet Ministries had lead over 10,000 men, women, and children across the border of Mexico to serve on short-term mission trips.
