A year of growth and new impact!
During the 2018-19 school year, we discovered more of God’s heart for the left behind and experienced the privilege of watching students accept Christ for the first time. In Haiti, our indigenous staff worked tirelessly to launch our second campus. In Cambodia, we saw God’s provision as he orchestrated a partnership that allowed us to launch our work among some of the least reached exponentially faster than we expected.
The short stories that follow highlight our core values and the impact we made together!
Storytelling
Every story and every voice matters. We share the stories of our staff, students, volunteers, and communities in a way that glorifies God.
Life change
18 students in Haiti accepted Christ during a camp experience a church partner provided.
learning stories
We connected with students in Cambodia by spending time with them and learning about their needs and hopes for the future.
Empowerment
Young or old, staff or student or volunteer, we believe that God created every person with intention, purpose, and a story to tell. We equip people to discover that purpose and step into their role in God’s story.
staff ownership
Our Haitian staff displayed incredible ownership as they hired 14 team members and oversaw construction on our second campus.
leadership Development
We learned how God is raising up leaders in Cambodia and we were able to encourage New Hope School’s staff as they serve the left behind.
Action
“Not my job” isn’t in our vocabulary. When we see something that needs to be done—whether it’s standing against injustice or cleaning a classroom—we glorify God by rising to the challenge and taking action.
deeper impact
From conducting home visits to creating academic competitions, our Haitian staff deepened their relationships and impact with our students.
mission growth
Our heart continued to break for the unreached and we discerned a location and partner for our work in Cambodia.
Collaboration
God equips us to be the light of the world by giving us a specific role to play. By pursuing partnership and collaboration, we multiply our impact as we lock arms with other churches, organizations, and individuals.
volunteer Engagement
From leveraging their time and talents on short-term trips to designing curriculum on the stateside, over 80 people helped us advance our mission.
partnership launch
We collaborated with the New Hope School staff to develop a one year partnership agreement and a discernment process for our long-term partnership.
Financials
God provided 32% financial growth during the 2018-19 school year!
Income: $393,522
Expense: $377,284
