glorify Jesus Christ
Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. (Psalm 82:3)
Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow. (Isaiah 1:17)
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world. (James 1:27)
significant, long-term impact
We focus on ministry that shapes all the ways kids develop, shaping the quality, direction, and destiny of their lives. We do that through:
- Fostering Relationships
- Creating defining moments
- Providing quality programs/services
orphaned and vulnerable children
- More than 140 million children globally are orphaned;
- 1.5 million children have been orphaned due to COVID-19 alone;
- Only 10% of orphans who age out of traditional residential care are able to successfully transition into adulthood.
fulfilling, independent Christian life
We provide each child with the skill sets, competencies, and know-how to live a productive, fulfilling life. We do that by:
- Providing every child with opportunities to hear the Gospel, embrace the life-changing love of Jesus Christ, and grow in their faith through regular bible study.
- Offering every child a quality education that creates opportunities to use their gifts and talents well.
- Giving every child the training needed for healthy human relationships.
- Preparing every child with the tools to be resilient and self-reliant.
- Mentoring every child to have a mature perspective as they learn to balance their place in the world and their relationship with God.
