For over a decade, Martha Crenshaw has served faithfully with e3 Refugee Partners to bring the love of Christ to Muslim communities in the U.S. and abroad. She and her late husband, Jay Riley Crenshaw, launched this ministry more than ten years ago with a vision from God that it would grow like a hot air balloon—starting slowly, then soaring ahead with momentum. That vision is now being realized, as the ministry is expanding rapidly and bearing fruit. Today, Martha continues to honor Jay’s legacy and God’s calling by pressing forward in boldness, seeing hundreds—if not thousands—come to Christ. 

Martha’s ministry is focused on reaching Muslim communities with the hope of the Gospel, discipling new believers, and planting churches that multiply.
