Large School Nearly Fully Sponsored
Trinity HOPE brings HOPE to the children of Haiti one bowl of rice and beans at a time. Through relationships with Christian schools, we ensure that the Gospel message is being shared to as many Haitian children as we possibly can. During the summer of 2021, the Mid-South District pledged a $10,000 annual donation to provide essential nutrition to Haitian children. This money has been applied to Jarden Eden, a Lutheran School in the Les Cayes District. With this annual donation, the Mid-South LCMS has become a partial sponsor of Jarden Eden. This large school feeds about 350 hungry souls each school day. The total cost to feed the children, cooks, and staff in this school is over $17,778.
Redeemer Lutheran Church in Nashville, TN has long been a supporter for the Trinity HOPE ministry. For the 2022-24 biennium, the LWML Group at Redeemer Lutheran Church in Nashville submitted a mission grant to the LWML Mid-South District. Following the mission grant proposal process the women of the LWML Mid-South District have graciously awarded Trinity HOPE a grant of $6,500. We thought it appropriate to apply all of those funds to Jarden Eden for the next 2 years. WOW! What a blessing! Because of the mercy of the members of the Mid-South LCMS and the LWML Mid-South District, the Lutheran School, Jarden Eden, is nearly fully sponsored. To God be the Glory!
