Our Mission:The Hope Movement is a 501 (c) (3) Christian non-prof it. Our mission is to shake the comfort zone of God?s people to renew our minds, uniting us as one to impact l ives through evangelistic, holistic and transformative methods to bring nations closer to Jesus Christ, breaking the cycle of spiritual and physical poverty and loosening the chains of bondage.

The Hope Movement is not an organization, or a one man show. It is a movement of destined individuals united as one, dedicating our lives to the rescue and care of children and adults l iving in desperate need. A new day has arrived and the Hope Movement is the formation of a generation of transformation.

Method to the Mission:Under the guidance and direction of Jesus Christ The Hope Movement develops strategic, evangelistic and holistic programs within existing churches and ministry-based facilit ies to be excellent f inancial stewards while empowering the local church to step outside of their comfort zone to fulf il l its calling to serve those inside and outside of its four walls. We plant and nurture Bible-based Churches, innovative outreach programs to transform communities into havens of hope and loving homes for the abandoned and abused providing hope for a brighter future. The Hope Movement practices what we preach and go out into darken places united as one conducting holistic missionary work to il luminate the light of Jesus Christ.

The Hope Movement confronts human suffering: spiritual poverty that paralyses the soul, physical poverty that drains families of hope, family dysfunction that causes a generational repetit ion of parental contamination, hunger that consumes lives with inner pain, addiction that pollutes the body, abuse that rips innocence from a child and robs of them a peaceful future and slavery that steals dignity and health from children and adults denying them freedom and security.

Suffering of the poor is not driven by the overwhelming power of the perpetrators ? it is driven by the vulnerability of the victims, and the lack of unity and passionate individuals who will step out of their comfort zone, unite, and reach those who are longing for hope. This suffering can be stopped when God?s people step outside of their comfort zone to unite. One unites with another becoming a ripple, building into movement, forming a f lood of hope, f lowing through the streets like a mighty river transforming all that is in its path with the power of unif ied actions of love.

I cr y for those in need and feel their pain as i f i t wer e happening to me. I feel your anguish for your hear t is connected to my hear t . I am consumed by my awe of you and the r esponsibi l i t y that you have cal led me to do. I don't want to fai l you or other s but r ather long to make you pr oud of me, not for ego, but because I love you so much that I want to make you smile and br ing joy to other s.

We consider it a great joy to partner with you in this work that is so close to the heart of God ? a work that we know could not be done without your generosity.

We also know that we have a great responsibil ity to be good stewards over the funds that are entrusted to us for the benefit of the children and families we serve. Good stewardship, one of our core values, compels us to strive to achieve the highest industry standards of integrity and accountability.

We work dil igently to limit our overhead costs, while maximizing quality child and family focused program activit ies. As a result, less than 4 percent of funds are used for administration and fundraising.

In the inner ci t y near N or th Avenue the f i r st thing you w i l l not ice ar e the abandoned homes, no par ks, no r ecr eat ional center s, no place for youth to go but hang out in the st r eets. Jonathan Roiz, Founder / Pr esident of The H ope M ovement gr ew up in Balt imor e and never for got his r oots. H e faced violence, pover ty; he w itnessed the hur t of the people and walked in their shoes. The H ope M ovement wor k ing along w ith local chur ches, community leader s and the community i t sel f has a vision to develop a st r ategic plan of act ion to t r ansfor m the most impover ished communit ies in Balt imor e City into havens of hope.

Balt imor e City has developed an agr eement w ith The H ope M ovement to adopt and manage vacant lots wher e gangs, pover ty, dr ugs, alcohol ism, violence and family dysfunct ion ar e consuming the people. The H ope M ovement mobi l izes a local movement of people fr om chur ches, businesses and individuals fr om the community to uni te and volunteer their t ime to develop these lots into community gar dens, safe par ks for fami l ies and locat ions for out r each pr ogr ams.

As Ephesians 6:12 says "For we do not w r est le against f lesh and blood, but against the r uler s, against the author i t ies, against the cosmic power s over this pr esent dar kness, against the spir i tual for ces of evi l in the heavenly places". The H ope M ovement is shaking the comfor t zone and uni t ing us as one to r each out in the mission f ield in our back yar d, changing the atmospher e, opening the eyes of bl ind, r eleasing them fr om their bondage's, for ming a gener at ion of t r ansfor mat ion.

You ar e The H ope M ovement , we ar e a team in the wor k of God, we can not ful f i l l our cal l ing w ithout you. Just as our cal l ing is to go and wor k in the mission f ield to t r ansfor m l ives, you have a pr ofound cal l ing to give to help sustain the wor k being accompl ished.

As the wor d of God has dir ected us in 2 Cor inthians 9, "Remember this: Whoever sows spar ingly w i l l also r eap spar ingly, and whoever sows gener ously w i l l also r eap gener ously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your hear t to give, not r eluctant ly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheer ful giver. And God is able to bless you abundant ly, so that in al l things at al l t imes, having al l that you need, you w i l l abound in ever y good wor k. As i t is w r i t ten:

?They have fr eely scat ter ed their gi f t s to the poor ;

their r ighteousness endur es for ever.?

N ow he who suppl ies seed to the sower and br ead for food w i l l also supply and incr ease your stor e of seed and w i l l enlar ge the har vest of your r ighteousness. You w i l l be enr iched in ever y way so that you can be gener ous on ever y occasion, and thr ough us your gener osi t y w i l l r esul t in thanksgiving to God.

This ser vice that you per for m is not only supplying the needs of the Lor d?s people but is also over f low ing in many expr essions of thanks to God. Because of the ser vice by which you have pr oved your selves, other s w i l l pr aise God for the obedience that accompanies your confession of the gospel of Chr ist , and for your gener osi t y in shar ing w ith them and w ith ever yone else. And in their pr ayer s for you their hear ts w i l l go out to you, because of the sur passing gr ace God has given you. Thanks be to God for his indescr ibable gi f t !

We pr ay God speaks to your hear t and that you feel a connect ion w ith The H ope M ovement , that you feel t r uly par t of this minist r y and passionate about ser ving those in need ar ound the wor ld, know ing that your gi f t s ar e impact ing l ives and is an act of wor ship to God.

B ecom e A Ch eer f u l Gi ver

" Tr u l y, I say t o you , as you d i d i t t o on e

of t h e l east o f t h ese m y

b r ot h er s, you d i d i t t o m e."

M at t h ew 2 5 :4 0

And so Jesus also suffer ed outside the ci t y gate to make the people holy thr ough his own blood. Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bear ing the disgr ace he bor e. For her e we do not have an endur ing ci t y, but we ar e looking for the ci t y that is to come.

Thr ough Jesus, ther efor e, let us cont inual ly offer to God a sacr i f ice of pr aise? the fr ui t of l ips that openly pr ofess his name. And do not for get to do good and to shar e w ith other s, for w i th such sacr i f ices God is pleased.
