Since 1993, we have been reaching and serving some of the world's poorest people, through education, children's homes, medical care, church plants, training and advocacy. Around 30 years ago, Simon Hawthorne and Rev Paul Morley visited Uttar Pradesh in the north of India and fell in love with the people of this amazing country. They also experienced first hand the devastating impact of poverty, pa
rticularly on children. From this a burden to act followed, and the Mizpah Christian School was developed in 1993, from which Life Association’s long history began. Over the years our work has diversified, through schools, loving children’s homes, church plants, training, medical projects and even a hospice. We want to reach and serve the poorest of the poor, with the hope and love of Jesus, in word and deed. Over the years there has been good progress in raising many from the depths of absolute povertry in India. However, India’s huge and rapidly growing population means that today there are still huge needs to be met. Our focus today remains particularly on children, who are always those most affected by poverty. All our projects are run by local churches and Christian leaders, so that local people are empowered to deal with the problems particular to their own areas.
