Living Hope Academy is located in the remote village of Zemero, Ethiopia. It took us (Pastor Tim Forrest, Pastor David Mason, Pastor Talargie, Pastor Teddy Cross) nearly 6 hours of driving through very rough roads up a mountain to get to this unique town. The children in our school are the poorest of the poor there. They have no way of affording any education, so we want to give them that opportunity. We also know that most of them go hungry on a daily basis, so we make sure that the school feeds them well daily. But above all, we desire for these children to know the love that God has for them through Jesus Christ. We want them to know that despite what the world tells them, they ARE special; they ARE loved; God has big plans for them. The school supports 130+ kids right now, but it is our desire to have that number doubled. As of right now, sponsoring a child costs $50 a month. That provides for their education and all their daily needs. First and foremost, we ask that you pray for these children and for this town. And as you pray, ask God what He would have you do. Should you devote an hour a day to praying for them? Awesome. Should you sponsor a child? Awesome. Should you sponsor two children? Awesome. We just ask that you follow God's lead in whatever direction He is leading you. If you would like to give online for the sponsoring, the "GIVE" tab will send you to a page where you can choose to have the funds go towards the Ethiopian Sponsoring. Thank you, and have a blessed day.
