Loving Accurately Ministries, Inc. (LAM) has been an active ministry in Indianapolis for over a decade.
LAM’s founder, Geoff Wybrow, and his wife, Claire, moved from Kwazulu-Natal(KZN), South Africa to Indianapolis in 1997 and started LAM with a vision to create healthy pastors who will, in turn, create healthy churches that are able to fulfill their missional duty to the poor and oppressed.
While living in KZN,often called the AIDS epicenter of the world, Wybrow realized the high cost of a disabled church after witnessing many of his friends die of the preventable and treatable disease, Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
After moving to Indianapolis, Geoff used the philosophy of “growing at the speed of relationships” as a primary foundation as he and Claire grew LAM. One by one he invested in and washed the feet of key people and leaders within the city, cultivating “David and Jonathon relationships. In doing so he created a tight knit community of people who began moving together to change history in the city.
Today, Geoff and the rest of the LAM staff continue the work that he and his wife began. We are sounding a clarion call to the church and laboring to love her into the fullness for which she was created. Whether it is through our unity groups, counseling services, mentoring, discipling, or speaking, we believe in the Bride of Christ and long to see her fulfill her missional duty as the light of the world.
In 2005, Geoff developed a vision of “offsetting pandemics” which led him to launch Loving South Africa (LSA). Just as the AIDS pandemic rages in its epicenter of Kwazulu-Natal, South Africa, a pandemic of “lukewarmness” affects the highly churched city of Indianapolis, Indiana. LSA works strategically to awaken the church in Indianapolis, getting it involved in the work of Christ and directly by saving lives in the AIDS epicenter of the World.
