Fountain of Christ Ministry has partnered with the community of Fontaine, Haiti. Through the direction and hand of God, we have been able to build a complete missionary complex. The building project has been a vision placed in our hearts and we are eager to see what God will do next.
Through the sacrifice of many, we have established the building structures in 2009-2010. They include a children's school/orphanage for 300 children, storage facility and mission home. Surrounding the entire grounds is a two acre security fence. We have constructed the desks, tables, and other structures necessary to open a fully, functioning school. The school opened it's doors to over 132 children in September 2011.
God Working Through Human Hands
Fontaine, on the central plateau, 3 kilometers east of Pignon, is one of the poorest rural areas in Haiti. It has a dense population and is plagued with poor living conditions. Many of the children are displaced, abandoned, or live with relatives. This puts many into abusive situations and we've seen much malnutrition and anemia.
The majority of the youth in this area have no opportunity for education because of the remote location, lack of educational facilities, extreme poverty, and need of shoes and clothing.
These children are in dire need of the gospel and education for their spiritual and general well being. This cannot be attained without ministering to their physical needs also, which are many. They need food, potable water, clothing, security, love and hope for a future.
Initially, we will provide education and spiritual training for 300 children. They will receive a nutritional drink before school, and a wholesome meal after school. They will be provided with uniforms, shoes, educational material and bibles as age permits. Also, 100 presently displaced and abandoned kids will be cared for in the orphanage, depending on their individual situations. They will receive 3 daily meals, sleeping quarters, hygiene, medical, clothing, adult supervision and physical activity. They will also attend school
We believe the Lord Jesus Christ commanded all believers to proclaim the gospel throughout the world and disciple people of every nation. We are working to bring the children of Haiti to the full knowledge of Jesus Christ through teaching the gospel and providing education and a healthy environment.
Luke 18:16 "But Jesus called for them, saying, permit the children to come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
