Many times people see our work as just a feeding program to those small bodies who are so hungry. But I see it as so much more. Yes, Trinity HOPE does provide the necessary food physically for the children to combat malnourishment, but the food also shows the children compassion and love, which opens their hearts and minds to Jesus. Experiencing this first-hand, I’ve seen their eyes light up and their faces fill with pure joy when they arrive at school and see the fires going, knowing their hunger pains will soon be relieved. Each time this assures me that Trinity HOPE is more than just a feeding program. It opens the doors and allows us to share God’s love with them each day. Once they accept Christ into their lives and begin their Christian walk, those meals continue to witness to them that the One True God does care and love them. This allows the local pastors to use the feeding program as an evangelism tool, reaching the families and neighbors of these children and continue to nurture those relationships with God’s Word in church and at home. Did you know that many of our feeding program directors are pastors? It was our connection with the local Lutheran Pastors in Haiti that fostered the first school being fed by Trinity HOPE and continues to allow the program to grow and expand. Trinity HOPE now feeds over 24,000 meals each day to 120+ Christian schools throughout Haiti.
Trinity HOPE is a humanitarian project but with a direct link to the Gospel! Read more at trinityhope.org
