Helping the world's most vulnerable children reach their God-given potential.

“Le Bicolore,” or Flag Day, is a meaningful celebration for the people of Haiti. In a country marked by insecurity, political unrest, and economic hardship, days like this become powerful reminders of the resilience, unity, and hope of the Haitian people.

Last week, schools across Haiti celebrated with parades, cultural performances, patriotic activities, and gatherings that reflected the strength and spirit of their communities. While the Haitian flag carries deep historical significance, it also is a symbol of perseverance that represents people who continue to move forward despite ongoing challenges.

For many Haitians, Flag Day is more than a national holiday. It is a celebration of identity, faith, culture, and a symbol of hope for future generations.

Please continue to pray for the people of Haiti as they continue to strive for a better future.

Children in our Fatherless Family Redemption program in Ethiopia recently finished the David C Cook curriculum. This nine-year program, consisting of three years of age-level content, is a Christian curriculum focused on spiritual discipleship, character development and life skills.

This program has been meaningful as the children grow in their understanding of their identity in Christ. With the encouragement of their mothers, staff, and peers, they celebrated their accomplishments with a graduation ceremony. The day was filled with singing, laughter, food, and speeches of gratitude from both the mothers and the graduates. We are encouraged to see these young men and women growing in faith and working hard to impact their communities while sharing the joy they have found in Christ!

When Stevenson became an orphan, his future was uncertain. Then he joined a Home of Hope where he no longer had to focus on survival but was given the opportunity to thrive. After graduating from high school, he attended LSM Tech, where his transformation continued.

“Despite my difficult past, God gave me a new beginning. Now I share with others how he transformed my life and gave me real hope when I had none."

Stevenson is now in his final year of university studying computer science and is already operating a small business selling technology products. He also plans to mentor younger students at LSM Tech, investing in their lives just as others invested in his.

Because of supporters like you, lives are being transformed at LSM Tech. Your generosity provides mentorship, education, and discipleship – raising up the next generation of Christ-centered leaders. Learn more at https://loving-shepherd.org/techcampus/

The Impact of LSM Tech

Since 2021, 20 students have graduated from LSM Tech with degrees in accounting, computer science, and civil engineering. With nearly 50 additional graduates expected over the next two years, God is continuing to transform lives and expand the impact of this program. By 2028, enrollment is projected to increase by more than 75%.

Students from Homes of Hope and surrounding communities receive two years of vocational training, biblical discipleship and leadership development. Through these opportunities, they are equipped with university degrees and practical skills to become independent, self-sustaining young men and women.

Joseph was once a vulnerable child, but after being welcomed into a safe and loving Home of Hope, he began to see a future for himself. Because of your support, LSM Tech opened the door to even greater opportunities. “LSM Tech changed my life. I now have the education, faith, and vision to help rebuild my country.”

Joseph will soon graduate with a degree in civil engineering and plans to give back to LSM Tech by helping expand the campus using his skills to create opportunities for the next generation of students.

“Almost my entire life is possible now due to the many opportunities I’ve been given. I will work hard to apply everything I’ve learned at LSM.” Your support is helping make stories like Joseph’s possible.

While attending LSM Tech, students have the opportunity to work on campus as part of their training. This allows them to develop skills and gain hands-on experience, while also helping to subsidize their tuition.

Students serve in a variety of roles, including: working at the agriculture park located on campus, helping in the kitchen to cook meals for the other students, supporting campus cleaning and janitorial work, teaching opportunities for more experienced students, and assisting in office jobs that are needed to support the campus.

These opportunities build confidence, responsibility, and leadership skills. Thanks to your support, students are able to put what they're learning into practice - growing into capable, self-sustaining individuals equipped for their future.

What is the impact of LSM Tech in Haiti?

In Haiti, less than 1% of high school graduates have the opportunity to attend college. Because of this, young people from our Homes of Hope and surrounding communities truly value their time at LSM Tech, a college campus focused on vocational training, discipleship, and preparing students for a sustainable future. With support from staff and teachers, students continue their education, while also receiving two years of biblical training and leadership development to equip them for their future careers, and become future leaders grounded in the gospel.

Throughout this month, we’ll take a closer look at LSM Tech, sharing inspiring student stories, and highlighting how they are learning, growing and stepping into their God-given potential.

Ethiopian Family Highlight: The Sacrificial Love of a Mother

Mekiyah's life has been full of heartbreak and resilience. After being abandoned by her husband, she was forced to leave her son with an aunt while she looked for work. In time, she was tragically abandoned once again by her second husband, leaving her alone with a baby daughter as well.

Yet through all the hardship, the deepest pain was being separated from her son.

“I hadn't seen him for eight years. Every time we talked on the phone, he would cry and tell me he wanted to be with me. I desperately wanted to be with him, but because of my financial struggles, I couldn’t. Not being able to raise, hug, and care for my own son was the hardest thing for me.”

When her circumstances didn’t improve, Mekiyah decided to make the sacrifice and risk everything by bringing him home. Now with her family whole again, she worked tirelessly to provide for her children. But without support, she couldn’t provide enough food to feed her family.

Then everything changed. Mekiyah joined our Fatherless Family Redemption Program. There, she received monthly food support, business training, education for her children, and a place to belong.

Today her story is no longer defined by abandonment, but by hope. "I just want to thank you for letting me raise my children without fear.”

It’s vital that our staff feel valued, supported, and rooted in God’s love—because when they are strengthened, they are better able to care for and uplift the children they serve. Recently, our Homes of Hope staff in Haiti participated in a class led by Pastor Rony, Director of Spiritual Development. Those who attended left encouraged and refreshed. We’re excited to offer these opportunities to more staff members.

By intentionally creating space to learn and grow together, we are building unity, wisdom, and strengthening our walk with Christ - and with one another.

“For in Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth… all things have been created through Him and for Him. He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.” — Colossians 1:16–17

Our schools in Haiti are committed to providing a quality education that prepares students to become successful leaders in their communities. We intentionally engage both their minds and their hands, creating opportunities for growth in every area of their development.

Recently, some of our students enjoyed creating art, learning to mix colors, and apply new techniques to their paintings. We are so proud of their hard work and love watching these young students thrive. We believe the Creator of all things smiles down at them as they create their own beautiful works of art!
