Would you let a Ex-Pirate, drug-smuggling pirate teach your kindergartner? Apparently, God would...

SYNOPSIS

By 1989, Rocky Malloy’s quest for truth, and extreme tolerance for risk, brought him to the abyss. After watching his fellow pirates tortured and hung for drug and gun running, Rocky was sentenced to life in a Mexican penitentiary… then, miraculously, God intervened.

Humbled and broken, Rocky limped back to America where he gave his life to Jesus. Soon after, with the Contra/Sandinista Civil War raging, Rocky felt called to The Mosquito Coast in Central America… and God intervened again.

While preaching in the jungles of Honduras, Rocky met and quickly fell in love with a beautiful Dutch nurse and missionary named Joske. They were soon married and together traveled to South America to plant a church to help Bolivian street children… and of course God intervened.

Realizing that early intercession was the key to a successful godly life with purpose, Rocky and Joske formulated a school curriculum which taught fundamental (and Biblical) values, morals and ethics… and yes, God intervened in a BIG way.

In one year, the program, comprised of Seven Principals found in the first chapters of Genesis, had the supernatural effect of lowering social ills, such as teen pregnancy, by 80%. Stunned, the Bolivian government quickly changed the law to help the miraculous program spread rapidly to other schools. In the last fourteen years, their public school ministry, Mission Generation has ministered the Gospel to over two million young people, giving school children in Latin America what Rocky says he never had as youngster, the true Jesus.

In keeping with their never-ending, true-life adventure, in 2017, Rocky and Joske fled the Communist government of Bolivia to the US. Today, they are maintaining their work through-out Latin America, while embarking on their greatest challenge to date, bringing The Seven Principals to public schools in America.

Their inspirational lives, trials, and faith are the subject of a major feature length documentary currently in development… We need your support, prayers and once again, the intercession of God to make this happen.
