Two Ways to Support the Resurrection Project this Year

A bit More about Child Sponsorships

Child sponsorships will be arranged directly with the Haitian Timoun Foundation. Payments can be set up to occur monthly, quarterly, or annually. If you set up your donation online, you will be contacted about which student you’d like to sponsor, or you can complete the process by visiting the display in the Gathering Space starting 4/26.

The first $6,000 will go towards Jacob’s Porch’s launch of a Cincinnati Campus Ministry (that is money not designated towards specific child sponsorships).

Child Sponsorship

Children in Haiti belong to families who live on less than $1/day. With a lack of public education, schooling is largely unavailable to them. HTF's Child Sponsorship Program makes it possible for children in Haiti to attend school by providing funds for tuition, fees, uniforms, materials and meals. Will you be a part of Prince of Peace sponsoring 60 children in Haiti this year? You can participate by renewing your Child Sponsorship commitment from last year and/or choosing a new student to sponsor. Generational change in Haiti begins with investing in vulnerable children through education! 

For Wings of Hope, a home for the differently abled, sponsorship provides the supplies and therapies required to enrich and care for the residents.

Jacob’s Porch will soon be serving college students and young adults not only in Columbus, Ohio, but coming in 2025, in Cincinnati, Ohio as well!

Jacob’s Porch - Columbus is an ecumenical campus ministry, born out of the Lutheran Tradition in 1926, located at The Ohio State University though serving students and young adults from various Colleges and Universities in Central Ohio. While the campus property is owned by the Lutherans, the ministry is now shaped in its self understanding as a Collaborative Christian College Ministry. Jacob’s Porch has an ELCA Pastor, PCUSA pastor and Methodist Lay Person (M.Div) currently on staff. Each of these leaders work together as one fully collaborative staff in its student facing ministry work, while also each running point within their respective denominations, all of which are full communion partners, to communicate the work being done and to build partnerships and financial resourcing.

Jesus seemed to send two people to do most things, even to simply get a donkey (Matt 21), so as we launch this new ministry in Cincinnati, Ohio at the University of Cincinnati, we are sending a team to be on the ground together serving students. One part time staff person has already gotten to work while they wait for a new full time pastor to be hired.
