Our commitment to the kids

We believe providing the best possible atmosphere, the best possible education and an amazing bible/worship/prayer experience will help each child reach their God-given potential. Our goal is to focus on the whole child and meet them where they are. We do this by having a very present leader who, does background checks on the kids and visits them 1-2 times per week at school. He also shares the letters, pictures, and prayers that our sponsors send. He leads them in bible study every Saturday, takes them to buy necessities, and takes them in for medical care as needed. He plays the role of a good and present father. We have university leaders (also in our ministry) who are very involved, helping the younger kids to acclimate to their new surroundings and praying with them. The children in our program have created a family-like atmosphere and are happy, healthy, and thriving. We also extend support to the families and caregivers of the children, by checking in on them and providing extra groceries, support services and sometimes piglets or chickens for them to raise and generate income.

MHM has designed its programs to address all forms of poverty. We hope that with the tools provided and their growing relationship with God, these children will be the ones to have a huge impact on their communities and country as a whole. We pray that the foundations we are laying will be built on for generations and that, every day, people come humbly beside us on this mission in which God is at the center.

In the beginning, we wondered how we would find kids in need. However, within the first few months of operation, we have not had to “search” for kids in need. They have found us. Since we started Myrtle House Ministries in December 2020 we have been led to support any child that comes across our path, regardless of sex, age, or parental involvement. Today we serve over 70 kids.
