Orphanage ministry
Children ages 3 to 14 are provided with basic necessities such as clothing, school supplies, food, small toys and hope. This ministry has gained much support as we give the Christian children a better opportunity to survive and live a healthy life.
For this ministry we are looking for donations to purchase needed supplies for these children. We can supply the children's needs from the local Iraq'i market which in many cases is much cheaper then shipping of goods from outside Iraq.

Christian Literature Distribution
Christian materials in Arabic such as Bibles, pamphlets, and coloring books are distributed to churches or para-church organizations for re-distribution to their surrounding communities.
This ministry needs funding to purchase Christian literature for distribution. Many materials are available and some are donated however purchased items are still in demand. We have vendors with this material available and ready to ship upon request.

Women?s Prison and Juvenile Ministry
Items such as Bibles, shampoo, tooth brushes, tooth paste, feminine products, socks, and baby clothing are distributed to women and their children in prison.
This ministry needs personal hygiene products which we purchase from the local market. We desperately need baby items, "clothing, toys and non perishable foods." We also purchase these items from the local market however when we receive a solid mailing address again, shipments will be welcomed.

Adopt a Family
Poor families incapable of earning a living because of various reasons are given food, clothing, and basic necessities for survival. In many cases the elderly become sick and cannot work or provide for their children.
This ministry needs families to adopt them financially or assist them with daily survival needs. We would like to establish a means of contact between the supporter and families being supported. Minimal investments are required to ensure a healthier environment for these war torn families. Eventually we would like to give these needy families a skill or trade so they would become self supporting. It is always better to teach someone how to fish then to give them a fish!

Community Outreach Ministry
Families in the immediate community are given Christian materials in Arabic, school supplies, and personal hygiene products. These families and their homes are in constant danger of being destroyed by insurgent attempts to bomb our hotel.
This is one of our largest ministries as we provide truck loads of supplies bi-monthly. This is the most costly of our ministries as we must purchase large quantities to accommodate small neighborhoods. Donations for this ministry are deeply appreciated as the needs are great.

Adopt a Church
Extremely poor Christian churches are provided financial support to keep the doors open. These churches have little to no income for their ministry or clergy to continue. Picture a church operating on a $200 dollar a month budget where this pays operation costs along with pastoral salaries.
This ministry is a must if Christianity is to spread among the Muslim countries. We need Churches to partner with Iraq'i Christian Churches in providing goods, services and financial support for pastoral staff and Church operation. I would like to establish a communication link with sponsors and the churches they support. Imagine being a missionary first hand and communicating with your Iraq'i church on a regular basis.
