At New Hope, we are sponsoring an empowerment group of orphaned children through Zoe. Rather than offering relief, the children in our group will be taught effective farming, small business skills, proper hygiene/medical care, and offered the Good News of the Gospel! Our group consists of 28 households (total of 93 children) in Dora, Zimbabwe. We now have prayer cards for each household. Pick up a prayer card from the info wall today!
To make a donation to our particular empowerment group we offer two options:
Write a check to New Hope and put “Zoe” in the memo line. Checks can be dropped in the offering plate or at the church office.
ZOE is a distinctive and highly effective three-year empowerment program that helps orphans and vulnerable children in Africa and India lead their own journey from extreme poverty, isolation, and abuse to lives of sustainability and hope. ZOE goes into communities where these teenagers and children are already living and helps the children make extended family by combining sibling households into empowerment groups to create a new family that works together. They help the children articulate dreams for their lives and then provide training and strategic resources that they need to transform their lives in just three years.
New Hope partners with a group of 28 orphan household and a total of 93 children in March 2019. Above are the names of every member in one of these households. Through accepting this prayer card, we are asking you to regularly pray for this child and siblings over the three years of the empowerment program. There are many things you might consider praying for (hope, health, food security, good crops, safety, knowing that God is with them, growing in their spiritual walk) as this child helps his/her family rise out of extreme poverty.
