Pastor Jean Phares Beaucejour has worked tirelessly in Cayes, building churches and schools, yet dreamed of starting an orphanage. Elisabeth Kennedy had been working in Haiti for years and met Pastor Beaucejour in March of 2006 on a medical mission. Throughout the next year, the two became aware of their mutual dream through prayer and conversation and forged this partnership.
Home, education, love and opportunity is what they hope to provide to orphaned and abandoned children in Haiti.
Pastor Beaucejour handles H.E.L.O.’s work in Haiti, Elisabeth handles the work in the USA, and both travel periodically to work together in each country.For more information, to donate or to sponsor a child, please visit http://HeloHaiti.org
