Bringing hope and a better future to women and children in third-world and developing nations…as we serve in alignment with The Father’s Heart.
From the President’s desk
We at FHP are more than pleased to
connect once again with our friends and
supporters who have supported us since
our beginning some 8 years ago.
So many good things have happened
over that time that we are so thankful
for. We are surely looking forward to the
final completion day for our FHP Primary
School Compound. We are hoping that by
the 2013 year end the necessary funds will
enable us to do so. We also believe that
through various new initiatives through
the coming year that our primary school
will be self-sustainable by the end of 2014
which will enable them to stand on their
own. We are proud to say that this will
provide the hopes and dreams of up to 500
underprivileged children to realize some of
the same dreams of our own children here
at home.
Merry Christmas
On behalf of Father’s Heart Projects Foundation.
We wish you a Blessed Christmas Season and a very Happy New Year!
Thank you for your continued prayers and financial support.

Noteworthy:
The Board of
Directors would
like to announce
there will be
a contribution
increase to the
Orphans. Effective
January 2014,
contributions
will be revised
to $40.00 for
all donators.
New subscribers
who are already
contributing at this
level will not be
affected.
One of the things our children say
is, “The highlight of our day is to go to
school” since our teachers and staff are so
committed to being a part of their overall
current and future development. A recent
report from the local Kisumu Board of
Education has rated us one of the highest
scholastic standings in the entire region.
The majority of our child sponsored
children also are enrolled at our school and
the support of our sponsors continues to
provide for their education and personal
needs such as medical, food, clothing
and a safe environment in the homes they
reside in. The majority of all the children
would never be able to go to school and
their cycle of poverty would never be
broken and they would face a very stark
hopeless future.
We are hoping that by the end of
this year, those of you that are able to
will help FHP meet our year-end goal of
raising $100,000, which will complete
the construction of the entire school
compound and also meet our 2013
shortfall. Any financial support can be
donated on line or returned by the included
card enclosed.
From the bottom of our hearts, our
children, national staff, volunteers and I
would like to thank you for your prayers
and support for becoming the reality of
a changed future for those unable to help
themselves.
FATHER’S HEART PROJECTS FOUNDATION

PRESIDENT
2013 and Beyond,
Growth of the Dream
It takes a dream which then requires courage and fortitude
to allow the dream to turn into reality.
FHP was a dream that developed in Paul and Jackie
Miles’s hearts. The dream grew into reality and was shared
with close friends with a similar heart. In 2013 the dream has
matured to a new reality.
The year was spent redeveloping our foundation which
included the website and integrating into the world of social
media. This gives FHP the ability to expand the circle of
dedicated supporters from close friends to the whole world of
like minded people. People that want to get involved with a
cause that gives meaning and purpose to improve the lives of
the underprivileged.
We ask, who are the underprivileged? They are the ones
whose voice has been taken away by their surrounding
circumstances and have no chance of changing their situation
without the help of Others. We are those, called Others, the
silent majority, whose hearts are breaking, hearts with passion,
looking for opportunities of significance, and that have the
ability to make a significant difference in those lives, that
are waiting and hoping for a change in their lives. All these
attributes are brought together in the Mission of FHP and
allow us together to envision the dramatic impact FHP can
have today and in the future. We also need to celebrate the
past and the faithfulness of the Partners and God’s grace.
We look forward to the coming year 2014, with the
completion of the school and creating more sustainability
with farming and water at the FHP school. You are welcome
to partner, share your own dream with FHP and bring it to
fruition. Quoting Pastor Jasper “ in doing Our part, we are the
answer to the prayers of the widows and orphans in Kisumu
and beyond” . Partner with us, with people resources and
financially. FHP may the catalyst to put your own dream into
reality.
Join with us on the journey, Respectfully

To God Be the Glory
Each experience we had, whether in
the villages or at the medical camps we
saw the devastation of HIV and the cycle
of poverty. We were told many times,
the only way out for the young is to have
an education. The public schools here in
Kenya have an average of 90 children in
each classroom and the conditions are
deplorable. This is why the ministry of
Father’s Heart School is so important.
With smaller class sizes, a high
standard of teaching and faith in God, the
children who attend have an opportunity
to break free from their plight of extreme
poverty.
HeadMaster Daniel are men of strong faith
and compassion. Their love and care for
the children is beyond words.
We were all so impressed by their
intregity and humble gracious way with
the children and their families. They are
change makers and Fathers Heart School
Projects is very blessed to have them as
leaders. They give the children hope and
a solid foundation to build their lives on.
We are praying that God will open doors to
supply all the needs of the school as it too
continues to grow.
As they would say….

We were told the story of a young boy
who was coming to Father’s Heart School
but his family was so poor, he was not
getting enough food to eat. So he left the
village and went to live a life of crime and
drugs on the street in Kisumu, in hope of
getting more to eat than he had at home.
The teachers at FH School searched until
they found him and brought him back with
the promise of making sure he would have
enough to eat.
The children receive a breakfast and
lunch but ensured he would have dinner
each day as well. This is the teachers’ faith
in action, living out the love and grace of
Christ in the community. Pastor Tobias and
