Zambia 2025 | Be Part of Camp Hope!
Greetings, Friends. I am Frank Smith, a long-time Woodcreeek member. Sarah Davidson and I are assembling a team of fifteen passionate individuals for a mission trip this summer. We will travel to Lusaka, Zambia, and partner with Every Orphan’s Hope to minister to orphans and widows in Jesus’ name.
About Every Orphan’s Hope
Every Orphan’s Hope is a Christ-centered ministry devoted to caring for orphaned and vulnerable children by placing them in secure, family-style homes. Each home is led by a loving widow, affectionately called a “mama,” who provides the children with stability, guidance, and the hope of Jesus Christ. It has been an incredible blessing to witness the difference EOH makes for these young lives.
After visiting EOH last year, one local mother, Mama Ruth, shared with us:
“The children in my home were given to me as a blessing. I know the Lord is with me; to give me knowledge and strength… children are a gift from God to me. I am just a tool which God is using.”
Introducing Camp Hope
This summer, we have the chance to come alongside them again—this time expanding their outreach through Camp Hope, a five-day Bible camp that reaches orphaned and at-risk children in surrounding communities. Through uplifting activities, worship, and meaningful relationships, this camp shows God’s love to children who often yearn for hope and personal attention. Volunteers form genuine bonds with these young campers, encouraging them spiritually and emotionally.
Why not join us this year?
