My Father’s House

He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when a flood arose, the stream broke against that house and could not shake it, because it had been well built. - Luke 6:48

You’re not just building a house.

You’re building a family.

My Father’s House Orphan Homes: July 18-31 (Positions Still Available)

Construction teams for Every Orphan’s Hope began in the fall of 2004 when teams arrived in Lusaka, Zambia to construct furniture for My Father’s Houses 1 and 2. Today, we have 11 homes that house eight children and a widowed woman, called the “mama,” who watches over them. Construction teams have taken on various roles including painting, building exterior brick walls, laying sheet metal for the roof, hanging doors, and constructing furniture. There is always a need in this ministry and no skill is required.

My wife was deeply committed to family and to Jesus Christ. When she died so very young, I decided to honor her memory by raising the money to build a house for orphans. Building that house together with my own children filled me with healing, hope and joy.
