In Amharic, the word "tesfa" means "hope."
In the past, our CFI ministry needed to moved on more than one occasion due to rent increases. After years of fundraising (and God stirring the hearts of many people!) in 2020 God provided land for our ministry to purchase!
The land is beautiful and it is situated in a great location in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia's capital city.
However, the buildings on the land are not suitable for the ministry to serve the 220 children and families that Compassion Family ministers to. We are praying that God would move again to inspire donors who specifically understand the importance of long term shelter and are motivated to give to this project.
Our board is passionate about this ministry and about this project. Therefore, before we looked to others to meet the need, we all made personal contributions to the building fund. As a board of ten members, we personally contributed $15,000. We are not bank presidents, CEOs, or software developers. We are small business owners, educators, law enforcement, and office managers. We have all been on the mission trip and have seen and can testify that the work done by CFI is changing lives and providing hope for the future of orphaned, abandoned, and impoverished children, both physically and spiritually.
Will you help us build a ministry center where hungry children are fed, struggling students are tutored, clothes and school supplies are distributed, community is built, hope is sown, and the love of Jesus is shared?
