Seeds of Hope • A story of return

Called back to the place that first gave me hope.

I grew up in Seeds of Hope’s first orphanage in Zambia. Now I’m returning to help build a new home for children who need love, safety, and a future. This is more than a mission trip: it is a full-circle calling.

“What was once given to me in love, I now have the privilege to help build for someone else.”
My Story

This mission is personal because this ministry is part of my own testimony.

Seeds of Hope is not just a ministry I admire from a distance; it is where I was raised. I grew up in its very first orphanage in Zambia and through that home I experienced something life-changing: stability, love, care, and the hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The people who served there gave me more than food and shelter; they gave me a sense of dignity, belonging, and future. They showed me God’s love in a way that was practical, sacrificial, and real.

Now I have the privilege of going back — not as a child in need, but as someone called to serve. Over the next year, I will be helping establish a new children’s home in Tanzania, creating a place where vulnerable children can be safe, known, and nurtured into the people God created them to be.

This work is about building refuge, creating a foundation for healing, identity, discipleship, and hope.

I would greatly appreciate your prayers during this mission. If you would like to follow this journey more closely, you are welcome to subscribe for updates and be part of what God is doing through this mission. Thank you for your love, prayers, and support.

Returning with gratitude

What I once received as a child, I now want to help extend to others with humility, faith, and deep gratitude for the people who made my own story possible.

Why it matters

A safe home can change the entire direction of a child’s life.

Every prayer and every gift helps make room for children to be loved well, cared for consistently, and introduced to the hope and purpose found in Christ.

Safe shelter A place where children can sleep, learn, and grow in security.
Daily care Food, nurture, discipleship, and presence that restore dignity.
Long-term hope Not temporary relief, but a future rooted in love and purpose.
