Children of Hope is a Christian Charity committed to serving Christ by caring for the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of children in Mexico.
Our Story
Children of Hope began in 2006 with a dream. We saw the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of the children living in orphanages. Children of Hope was founded in response to these needs.
Over the years of our existence, we have experienced incredible testimonies of transformed lives. As we continue to invest in the lives of children, we look back and see fruit, and we look toward to the future in hope and anticipation. We are thankful for our genuine, gifted and loving caregivers who pour into the lives of these children and see the potential they have. Through the hard work and dedication of our caregivers, the children too begin to believe in themselves and see their value.
To reach our goal of helping children in Mexico it takes a community of people to create change. We have constructed a child sponsorship program which is set up in order for the orphanage to support the monthly needs of each child; we have short-term mission groups who are willing to help the orphanage with projects, needs, and build relationship with the children; we have full time staff in Mexico who function as overseers of our different ministries; we have faithful donors who desire to see children prosper; and we give opportunities for our caregivers to be trained through workshops so that they are best equipped for the ministry they have of working with the children. We have a call to help and we desire to ensure that we do this to the best of our ability.

Our Statement of Faith
Statement of Faith
• We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God. (II Timothy 3:15-17).
• We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. (Matthew 28:19; Ephesians 4:4-6).
• We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and in His personal return in power and glory. (John 1:1-4; Matthew 1:23; Philippians 2:5-11; Hebrews 1:1-4 & 4:15; Acts 1:11 & 2:22-24; I Corinthians 15:3-4).
• We believe that, for the salvation of lost and sinful man, repentance of sin and faith in Jesus Christ results in spiritual renewal by the Holy Spirit and that Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation. (Titus 3:4-7; Luke 24:46-47; Ephesians 2:8-9; John 14:6; Acts 4:12).
• We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit whose indwelling enables the Christian to live a godly life. (Galatians 5:16-18; Romans 8:9).
