Mission Statement, Goals, & Core Values

Mission Statement
Orphan Justice Mission exists so that orphans and vulnerable children may grow up into healthy, productive adults, with their communities empowered and equipped to independently support them as quickly as possible. The expectation is that financial support will decrease as the partner churches and their communities become increasingly self-supporting.

Goals
The basic socioeconomic needs of every child are to be met with excellence with a view towards equipping them for a hopeful and satisfying future.  These basic socioeconomic needs are separated into the broad categories of Business, Education, Family, Health, and Spirituality.

Business: Continually decrease unemployment and increase household income in orphan care communities and provide opportunities for vocational training, job placement, and business creation.

Education: Graduate students who meet local pre-University standards or the equivalent of a United States high school level education.

Family: Place every double orphan in a safe, stable, and loving environment.

Health: Provide clean water, a sufficient nutritional diet, and basic preventative health care to every child.

Spirituality: Develop fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ and connect children to local congregations.

Core Values
All of the activities and relationships of Orphan Justice Mission and its official partners should honor and uphold the values of Christian spirituality, relationships, generosity, sustainability, expertise, communication, and accountability.

Christian Spirituality – Be obedient to the commands of the God found in the Holy Scriptures and work in the power of the Holy Spirit through prayer and intentional fellowship.

Relationships – Love one another, serve one another, defend unity, and build trust through honesty, grace, and patience.
