Waymaker International Ministries

Waymaker International Ministries runs a ministry center called Hope House - a center that offers hospitality and a safe emotional and spiritual space for asylum seekers and refugees. Within the Hope House, asylum seekers have access to internet, refreshments, weekly meals, Bible studies, prayer, encouragement, bus tickets, and English classes at no cost. As part of these programs, we helped provide travel and lodging to 4 different Bible teachers who were native Farsi and Arabic speakers in order to minister to refugees in their own languages. During 2022, Hope House served over 5,000 asylum seekers from multiple countries throughout Africa and the Middle East.

Waymaker International Ministries expanded their vision for reaching and teaching people on outlying islands, many of which can only be reached by boat. Employing a small sailing craft, we extended our outreach to 3 islands. Volunteers sail between islands, building relationships with locals, offering prayer and encouragement, making Bibles available with the long-term goal of establishing Bible study groups on these islands.
