Children's Hope International Statement of Faith and Practice
What We Believe

Children's Hope International is a Christian organization, affiliated with no particular denomination, committed to serving God through caring for the homeless and the hurting through adoption and humanitarian aid, while working cooperatively with people of all faiths.  To this end, the organization as a whole is committed to uphold the Statement of Faith and Practice, and expects all its employees to believe and act in harmony with the principles, in love and service. The Statement of Faith as stated in the Articles of Incorporation is as follows:


We believe the Bible to have been given by God for the purpose of directing all people in the highest purposes achievable by man - a manual for living, conducting the matters of life and maintaining relationships on the highest level possible.  We therefore, commit to working in all honesty and integrity to conduct ourselves, this organization and all relationships in harmony with its teaching.

We believe that there is one God, a God of Love, Who gives expression of His fullness, in the form of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  He so loved the world that He came into the world as Son of man and Son of God, so that nobody would be lost but would have everlasting life through believing on Him and His work on the cross.  This love extends importantly to children for 'pure religion before God the Father is this that we should look carefully after the needs of the fatherless, and the widows.'  Therefore in practice, we commit ourselves to giving homes, health and hope to those who do not have families and working with children in need and at risk in society.

We believe in the gospel and teaching of Jesus and make it our constant aim to reproduce His love to others through the practice of humility, kindness, extraordinary service, and treating others as we would want them to treat us.

We believe in the indwelling power and gifts of the Holy Spirit so that every believer is enabled to live a more godly life on a higher level and be of greater value to friends, family and society.

We believe in the power of prayers of faith and do commit to seeking the will and power of God in all matters for resolving problems and making all decisions.

We believe in, respect and work for the spiritual unity of all believers in our Lord Jesus Christ and of all men everywhere."
