Overview

Mission

It is the mission, duty and purpose of Gospel Passion Ministries Inc to encourage and facilitate Christ-filled relationships that will equip others with lasting solutions for their physical, spiritual, and educational needs in order to empower young women in Ethiopia and other areas to rise above their current situation. Gospel Passion Ministries Inc will attempt to accomplish this by developing solutions in the areas of supported living conditions, education, and employment while sharing and living out the gospel of Christ. Our desire is to see lives transformed and instill a sense of pride, accomplishment, and self-worth in the women that we work with.

What it reported doing in 2025

Gospel Passion Ministries Inc had partnered with the Mulu Wengale Church in Bahir Dar, Ethiopia to help fund a daycare for single parents of young children. In Ethiopia, young single (mostly women) parents are faced with the dilemma of either begging on the street for sustenance or abandoning their child so that they can work. The daycare program provides daycare and nannies for children for approximately 80 children so their parents can work. Gospel Passion Ministries also works with the church to provide indigent assistance.
