About Our Ministry
The history of my (Debbie's) family has had a great effect on the birthing of the vision for homes for orphaned girls. Though my father and mother did not grow up in Christian families, each had a person who influenced them toward Jesus. By following the teaching of the scriptures, their life and their children's lives were changed. We now walk in blessings because of their faithfulness.
On my first trip to India, I was greatly distressed when I noticed the orphaned and homeless girls. I felt overwhelmed at the need. Generation after generation seemed to have no hope. I could see they needed someone to give them an opportunity to learn, develop, and mature into responsible individuals. I thought to myself, "I cannot save them all, but I can save some." A childhood dream of helping the poor and needy was renewed in me and I began to make plans to help these children.

Ps. 68:5 A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling. God sets the lonely into families.
We believe a family setting is more favorable for the care and nurture of all children. For that reason, the homes we have established are limited to 15 children. With a strong emphasis on family and family ties, our children quickly bond to their parents, their sisters and to other adopted extended family members.
