ABOUT US

Naomi & Eliel Wyss
Founders & Co-Presidents, Embrace Worldwide

Naomi and Eliel Wyss are the founders and Co-Presidents of Embrace Worldwide, a Christian ministry committed to reaching the lost, serving those in need, and making disciples. From a young age, both Naomi and Eliel were marked by a deep call to make Jesus known. This conviction shaped their lives long before the official launch of the ministry, as they shared the Gospel, discipled others, and served those in need.

Embrace Worldwide was officially established following a profound encounter with God that marked Naomi’s life and confirmed the timing to step fully into ministry. During early outreach on the streets of San Diego, God spoke to Eliel, saying, “What I am doing in the one, I will do in the multitudes across the nations.” This word confirmed what God had already placed in their hearts through dreams and visions from a young age.

What began with reaching individuals one by one has since grown into an international ministry reaching hundreds of thousands of people with the Gospel in person every year and millions of views through digital Gospel content. Today, Embrace Worldwide serves locally and across nations through large-scale Gospel Campaigns, street outreach, evangelism and discipleship initiatives, an orphan feeding and discipleship program, and ongoing efforts to help new believers become firmly planted and established in their faith.

At the heart of Naomi and Eliel’s lives and ministry is a deep desire for people to encounter the love of God, come into a relationship with Jesus, and follow Him wholeheartedly. They remain committed to walking in obedience to His voice and faithfully stewarding the call He has entrusted to them, giving Him all the glory for every life reached and transformed.
