About Us
Our organization targets meeting the practical needs of the poor, underprivileged & outcast of India to improve their overall standard of life & provide an opportunity for them to break the cycle of poverty & illiteracy!
In 1998 we took a big step of Faith & started The Jesus Way. God has blessed us with 3 amazing children: Desirae 25, Josiah 23 & Brandon 21 years old. We work together as a family in India serving the poorest of the poor and living every day to make a difference in the lives of the people here! Although we are surrounded with great need on every side, it is so rewarding to see lives be completely transformed by the Love of God! We are thankful to be a part of extending that love to the people around us! We are truly living our dreams!
Although each area that we are working in is very significant to us, currently we are focusing on the opportunity in front of us to rescue so many "At Risk" children through the school & orphanage. Currently, we have 400+ orphan, semi-orphan, poor & underprivileged “At-Risk” children.
