Joe and Keijo Bollinger

Hello!
We are Joe and Keijo Bollinger and we serve with Cru City Neighbors on the Orlando City Team. We are called to help people connect God's truth to everyday life and relationships. Practically, this looks like relationship-based lifestyle discipleship. We see ourselves as planted in our community on purpose to live and walk in obedience with God with others who know Him and those who don't. We're seeing individual lives transformed and the great commission fulfilled as we yield to the work of God's Spirit here.
One way we connect with the community has been through planting a community garden. Joe manages a community garden and found that giving away produce is an excellent way to build relationships. A nearby homeless shelter heard of the garden and reached out for help. Now, they use their own garden's produce to share with another shelter and the neighborhood next door.
We’ve also seen God plant believers, like Adam. Adam met us through our neighbor. He learned that we had visited Guinea Bissau, where a pastor friend of ours runs a school. That conversation led to Adam going to Guinea Bissau recently to serve for three months, where he was mentored by the pastor!
We’ve loved seeing God plant vision for discipleship in our community. Keijo enjoys hosting IF Gatherings to encourage women toward discipleship. After seeing her facilitate those times of spiritual equipping, two of the women who came, have helped host discipleship gatherings in their own spaces.
Being planted in our community and planting gardens, believers, and great commission vision, we’re seeing God's kingdom come alive in new ways as we help people find their place in His story in Orlando and around the world.
