Even in political turmoil and other challenges, the generosity of those who support the ministry of Mission of Hope has allowed work to continue. The past several months have been full of stories we hope to share when it’s safe; we are not currently sharing details in order for confidential operations to continue. The story below shows the determination of our Haitian staff and accurately represents both the plight and the heart of our friends in Haiti.
Recently, a group of our staff called village champions embarked on a challenging journey to a remote village in Haiti. Remote in that it takes a special-made vehicle to make it to a particular place, and there is still a several-hour hike to make it to the people. The hearts of our staff broke when they heard how this remote village had been cut off and unable to get food for their families. They knew they had to do something. These were neighbors—mothers, grandfathers, children, brothers, and friends.
They traveled difficult roads and hiked for hours carrying boxes of meals along a narrow pathway. They would not let a treacherous path keep them from reaching their destination and serving their neighbors in need. Despite the danger, they persevered—showing the true spirit of the Haitian people.
In Acts 1:8, we’re reminded of our calling to be witnesses to the ends of the earth. In Matthew 25:35, we are called to feed the hungry and care for those in need. These callings are being lived out and the love of God is being shared with those in need in Haiti—hope is not lost. Your support has made it possible for us to follow this biblical mandate and make a real difference in the lives of those we serve. We are so grateful for your partnership in this important work.
This is simply one story of countless that have taken place lately. God is working through His people, reminding one another of the eternal hope possible through Jesus Christ. The trials of this world will end, but He has called and equipped us to represent Him to a hurting world during the challenges.

He was only thirteen when an accident changed everything. In the Dominican Republic, a young boy, Binsley, was left paralyzed with no access to medical care and no one to turn to. His only family—his two brothers—loved him but had no resources to help. Without treatment, food, or proper care, his condition worsened, and painful wounds began to form as he lay waiting for help that never seemed to come. That changed when Pastor Carlos, a local pastor traveling with a Mission of Hope team, met him and immediately recognized the urgency of his situation. Through his leadership and connection with our Community Engagement team, care began—consistent, compassionate, and life-giving. Because of faithful support, Binsley now receives regular medic al care, nutritious food, clean clothing, wound treatment, and physical therapy in La Joya. While he remains paralyzed, his health has stabilized, his pain has lessened, and he is no longer facing his journey alone. For the first time in months, there is hope. Your generosity made this possible. Because you chose to give, a young boy was seen, cared for, and reminded that his life matters. And he is not the only one. There are many others praying for help—and through your continued partnership, hope is reaching them too.

In January, Klèb Manman continued to grow in Cap-Haïtien, with three active groups and the joyful beginning of a new one. These groups are more than meetings; they are safe spaces where mothers find encouragement, skills, and hope for a better future. In December, one young mother joined Klèb Manman. She is navigating motherhood at a very young age, carrying both the deep love for her child and the heavy responsibility of providing for her baby. After one Klèb Manman session, she approached our Women Empowerment director, Madame Rosealure, quietly and said, “Mrs., please, can I talk with you?” When Madame Roselaure said yes, she shared her dream: she wanted to start a small business so she could care for her child with dignity. Madame Roselaure shared that she did not have the financial ability to help right away, but she promised to pray with her and to trust God to make a way. The following month, moved by her courage and determination as a young mother, Madame Roselaure decided to use her own money to purchase materials so she could learn how to make liquid soap. This brave mother took that opportunity and turned it into action. She made the soap, sold it, and reinvested part of the income by buying more supplies so she could continue her business. Step by step, she began building a path toward independence and stability for herself and her baby. This story reflects the heart of Klèb Manman. Through manual activities and practical support, mothers, many of whom are navigating motherhood at an extremely young age, are gaining skills that empower them economically and emotionally. This kind of support restores hope, strengthens confidence, and helps mothers provide for their families while believing in a brighter future.
