Haiti Home of Hope


The people in the picture above are Jennifer and Bill Campbell. Bill and Jennifer and their son, Jessie, received God's call and left their Kansas City home to move to Haiti in 2002 to run an orphanage. What they first believed would be a home for about 15 boys, God has made a home for 36 children, boys and girls.
Bill and Jennifer were at Orchard Hill a week ago and shared for over an hour in the sanctuary on a Wednesday evening.
I was moved and inspired by their great faith and obedience. I was moved to prayer that these little ones will grow up not only strong in body, but strong also in mind, soul, spirit. At the Haiti Home of Hope, the children are receiving 3 meals a day, an education, and they're learning about God's Word and their identity in Jesus. They're hearing the Gospel, and they're experiencing the Gospel being lived out all around them. I pray that God would raise them up to lead and help transform their community in Christ.
Other prayer requests and needs at this time are:
- money for infant formula so that the Campbell's can continue a milk program for babies in the area.
- money for a new truck that is badly needed.
- Also prayers for Jessie. He's in Kansas City, living apart from his parents, for his senior year of high school.
When we send teams to Haiti from Orchard Hill, the teams visit the orphanage, which is near Pignon, each year.
You can write an encouragement email to the Campbell's at campbellsinhaiti@yahoo.com
The Haiti Home of Hope exists to provide food, shelter, clothing, medicine, education, and most importantly, the love of Jesus, to orphans and other needy children in Haiti.
