Child Sponsership

Yesterday we were able to go to church with these beautiful children, while our home church in the States had a child sponsorship kickoff for them at Central.  Already 18 of these children are sponsored.  
Bethlehem Foundation All Rights Reserved
The children pictured above are 5 of 41 children that live at Bethlehem Foundation in Cap-Haitian, Haiti.  Unlike the children that live with us at Children of the Promise these children live in an orphanage.  Bethlehem Foundation is their permanent home.

Pastor Brian has become friends with the director of Bethlehem Foundation, Pastor Blot, over his 3 visits to Haiti.  He introduced us to Pastor Blot and we too have become good friends.  Pastor Blot pastors a church and has a 540 student primary school.  When the 2010 earthquake devastated southern Haiti the Haitian government was looking for places for orphaned children to live, Pastor Blot took in 37 of those children.  Since then he has added 4 more.  

Our church is teaming with 1-by-1 Haiti to sponsor his 41 children.  The Bethlehem Foundation is completely Haitian staffed.  The goal of this child sponsorship is to continue to have the Bethlehem Foundation Haitian run.  The money will go toward schooling and feeding the children.

If you would like to get involved contact Pastor Brian at  brian.mulder@centralsf.org
