THE LOVING SHEPHERD
Summer 2022
For more than 20 years, Loving Shepherd Ministries has been fulfilling our mission to help the world’s most vulnerable children reach their God-given potential. By the grace of God, our Christ-centered programs have transformed the lives of hundreds of children in Haiti, Ethiopia and the United States – preparing them to become country-changers for Christ – and entire communities and churches have been impacted. The amazing ripple effect of this transformation will be felt for generations to come. At the core of this transformation is hope found only in Jesus. As Romans 5:5 says, “Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.” We are humbled to walk alongside the children and families we serve, and we praise God for the Holy Spirit and His guiding hand in their lives and in our ministry!
GOD IS AT WORK AS HIS HOLY SPIRIT TRANSFORMS LIVES,
EMPOWERS PEOPLE, AND RAISES UP A NEW GENERATION OF
PASSIONATE CHRIST-FOLLOWERS!
We also praise God for you – for your prayers and generous support. Without your love and investment, thousands of vulnerable children would not be empowered to thrive. Without you, there is simply no way that we could reflect God’s love to children and families in such difficult places.
As we celebrate our 20th anniversary, we have enclosed a special booklet that reflects the heartbeat of our ministry – stories of hope in Jesus. In the booklet, you will read about transformed lives, the broken bonds of generational poverty, and disciples being raised up. We are humbled to share about what the Lord has done in the lives of extremely vulnerable children and families through you and we are excited to see what God does in the next 20 years!
With Gratitude,
Doug Isch, LSM President
