Global Hope Resources

Website: http://globalhoperesources.org/

Mission

Our broad mission is to serve the church and the community by embodying the justice, mercy, and goodness of God. We believe we best show: God’s justice by prophetically standing against abuse and oppression; God’s mercy by protecting the vulnerable and helping to heal the broken; His goodness by loving the broken and helping to restore the exquisite male and female design for healthy relationships.

Vision

Our specific vision is to develop and provide biblically and scientifically sound resources for Christian and community leaders on: (1) the nature, effects, and prevention of abuse/oppression; (2) abuse/oppression healing; (3) relational and sexual health. We desire to provide educational and equipping resources for leaders who work with strategic populations that lack resources. Hence, our priority is to serve key leaders in the developing world. Secondarily, we desire to serve key leaders who minister to neglected and needy populations in the United States (prisoners, those in battered women’s shelters, prostitutes, etc.).

 StreetLight Project

Website: http://www.streetlightphx.com/

After forming the non-profit organization Stop Child Rape For Profit, Inc. the StreetLight Program was launched on January 27, 2009. StreetLight was founded to “provide opportunities for young girls to experience God’s unconditional love, forgiveness, and life-transforming power.” We realize before any individual can recognize their potential and discover their purpose; their most basic human needs must be met. But on the streets of our cities and in every country around the world, there are a multitude of vulnerable young children that are not having these their basic needs met. These children are being exploited, abused and sold.
