New Hope Children's Home :: Peru

On September 1, 1995 in the village of Pachacutec in Arequipa Peru , we, David and Debbie Bolos, founded New Hope Children's Home. After seeing time and again the homeless and abandoned, God broke our hearts and led us to open up a permanent home for these children. The children of New Hope live with us on a full-time basis where we provide for them spiritually, emotionally, and physically. As these children grow and mature, they remain with us through their college years or until they become established. In what follows, we will share with you some of the experiences that led us to start this ministry and the visions and goals that guide the work of New Hope.

Our goal is simple -- it is to teach the children that they are loved by us and by God. By providing a safe shelter for them we hope to prepare them to become leaders in their communities. We further teach them that they have God-given talents and abilities that must be developed. Our desire is to raise a generation of godly leaders since these children are the future of their country. Additionally, we teach them the importance of forgiveness and true love -- that they must forgive those who have abandoned and abused them and learn to love through the example of Jesus Christ.

I want to thank you so much for your interest in New Hope . We now have 40 children in our home, but have plans to expand our facilities in the near future to include room for at least 100 children and young people. My prayer is that our God would burden you as He has burdened us in the ministry of the poor, the oppressed, and the less fortunate (James 2:14-17).

In Christ,

David and Debbie Bolos

Wow! What a powerful video, especially Monica's story. And Tony's description of their work and the kids they care for -- God Bless 'em! If this doesn't break your heart, then you need to pray as Bob Pierce did, "Let my heart be broken by the things that break the heart of God."
