"One of the great blessings of the trip was to see how healthy & happy the kids were at House of Faith Orphanage (HOFO). It tells me that GO! is investing wisely and truly cares for these kids. I'm proud to be associated with such a great group devoted to the work of our King!"

A Message From Our Founder
On Valentine’s Day 2005, a journey began for my wife and me that once held such great promise—but quickly turned into a season of uncertainty. We learned our daughter was in danger and were placed on bed rest. Though we clung to hope, months later, on May 19th, we experienced a devastating personal loss. Yet even in that heartbreak, God stirred a greater purpose.
From that grief, Global Orphan Relief was born—a mission to serve orphaned and vulnerable children with love, long-term care, and a faith-driven vision for lasting impact.
Since then, I’ve traveled to serve alongside children in DR Congo, India, Kenya, Mexico, Nepal, South Sudan, and Zambia. These children—once strangers—became our priority and our daily prayer.
While we give thanks for all that’s been accomplished, our hearts remain burdened for those still unreached. This work is not just about today—it’s about eternity. Join us in changing lives, one precious child at a time.
