There is great reward when we embrace others in need and equip them with skills (not handouts) so that dignity and sustainability can be passed on to others!
Without an investment there can be no return. From prayer to a variety of caring actions, the door to make a difference is open for you, your family, and your friends.
I will crush poverty with HOPE!
Your network is a powerful tool! Explore the incredible difference you can make when you advance the cause through your office, church, small group, VBS, school, clubs, business, alumni networks, family, the web, social media, and more.
Nelson
My name is Nelson; I greet you in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Since training with Empowering Lives, many changes have happened in my home and my family—changes that should be described as miracles.
After years of drinking, I almost lost everything. I had no hope, no reason to live. Then I met Jesus. I knew there was a God, but I thought He was ashamed of me; I couldn’t believe He would love me, a drunkard and a thief. I accepted Him as my Savior, and He made me new, alive in His love. He touched my body. During my training, I learned the ELI Way to start a business by going slow. I used to complain all the time as I believed I couldn’t change until I had capital. But the trainers taught me how to use what I had, and if I was patient, I would soon see growth and be able to support my family. I now have an established chicken project and care for four healthy dairy cows, which produce an income for me to feed my children and pay for their school fees.
I am happy to share with you that I am now a leader in my village. I am the secretary of my local church, and together with my pastor we have grown from one to four churches. I want everyone to have a chance to know that God loves them. He is not ashamed of them. I want this message of His love to spread to everyone, so I gave a quarter of my land to build one of these churches.
I pray to help more people know about my Jesus who does miracles and for more people to come to ELI for training. Slowly, we can see more change happen in my village and many other villages.
