Our Mission
We work with the poor. Our mission field is drug-addicted street kids, homeless families, and people who live at the city dump. We bring hope to the rejected, the lonely, and the unloved. We feed the poor, rent homes to take families off the street and work with employers to find them jobs. But we don’t stop there. Mother Theresa often said the greatest poverty is being unloved. We want to inspire all generations to radically love and bring hope to the hopeless.
Book A Speaker
Danny Leger and Craig Johring share stories about their work with the poor, and songs inspired by the poor through speaking in churches, at conferences, and retreats. They speak in schools, universities, and in living room gatherings to inspire everyone to encounter Christ and to be the hands and feet of Jesus.
Book A Mission Trip
Each year 450 come from the USA to Mexico City on missions to encounter and share Christ with the poor. The poor bring each person closer to God as they experience the love of Christ. The missionaries expand the ministry of Hope of the Poor through their outreach and service to the poor.
