Ruth's Story
Imagine losing everything in a house fire. That is what happened to Ruth, a woman in Santiago, Dominican Republic. Having no place to call home, she and her three kids were staying with a relative when she received a knock at the door.
“It was 11am. I remember it exactly,” she said. “A local pastor came and knocked on my door, He told me they had heard of our suffering and great loss and wanted to build us a new home!”
From surveying land to hauling concrete blocks, from mixing cement to painting walls, Mission of Hope teams worked alongside Pastor Robinson’s church for months. Ruth and her family moved into their brand new home in October.
“This changes my whole life! To go from having nothing to now a brand new home, I just can’t believe it! God is so great, and he shows mercy to us even in the very hardest situations.”
As you pray about year-end giving, please consider giving to Mission of Hope so that more families like Ruth’s can find hope. Your gift will help more people experience the love of Jesus by having their physical needs met while also hearing the transformative message of the gospel.

“We’ve been through so much but now have peace and security like we’ve never had before,” says Ruth. “God has done incredible things—through you—and we are so grateful.”
Thank you for partnering with us to reach every man, woman, and child with the love of Jesus Christ. |
