Providing Love, Support, and Hope for Haiti’s Children
Premiere Eglise De Bethel extends its mission of faith and service beyond borders through its dedicated support of an orphanage in Haiti. This orphanage serves as a haven for children who have lost their families or are facing difficult circumstances. Located in one of Haiti’s most underserved areas, the orphanage provides a nurturing environment where children receive shelter, food, healthcare, education, and the emotional support they need to thrive.
Our commitment to the orphanage aligns with our belief in uplifting the vulnerable and building a future full of hope for these children. Through the generosity of our congregation and community, we strive to meet the physical, educational, and spiritual needs of each child. The orphanage not only meets basic needs but also helps the children discover their potential, with programs that emphasize learning, personal growth, and resilience.
