Transforming People
We believe a nation can only be transformed as its people are given hope. That’s why we equip the local church with an approach that focuses on individuals, nurturing children from the womb all the way through a university education.
From Birth
These churches minister to mothers and caregivers in their communities – providing them with the crucial skills they need to care for babies and young children in the most critical years of life.
Through their Formative Years
As children grow, they are engaged with different learning opportunities, geared to age and understanding. They receive regular health check-ups and learn valuable life skills like proper hygiene. They participate in social activities, including drama and dance. And every child receives Christian teaching – they hear the gospel, are taught the Bible, and are mentored by staff and volunteers within their church community.
To a University Education
Those children – now young men and women – with exceptional academic ability and leadership potential have the opportunity to gain a university education. As doctors, lawyers, teachers, pastors, politicians, and business people, these young adults are equipped to change the course of their nations and help bring an end to poverty.
From the womb to adulthood – educated, engaged and equipped with the gospel of Jesus Christ through the local church to bring transformation and hope to their nations.

As sponsors for 5 years of 4 children (7 non concurrently), my wife and I have seen a transformational difference in these young lives. Although one suffers with chronic medical issues, she is being treated. While one is emotionally challenged and struggles with schooling, my letters are a great source of comfort and encouragement to her. Two are raised by one parent or orphaned and our two boys are cared for by the church community or Christian relatives.
In every case my sponsored-children write they are filled with joy, thanksgiving and are finding contentment in life, in the mists of trials, growing in the knowledge that they are loved by God in Christ who is sufficient for them. They are great witnesses at home and in school. They now pray for us, each other and we for them and their families. They are a joy in my life, and my wife and I are a treasured blessing to them. Our hope is that they will break cycle of poverty. Our confidence is they already have spiritually. Is the difference Jesus? Yes and Amen.
