About this facility

Mission: Current ongoing ministries are centered primarily in the community of Pignon,
Haiti. Hosean Int'l employs over 150 national staff members. HIM has established a large school campus, College de la Grace, with over 900 students enrolled in the 2008-09 school year. Camp de la Grace, a retreat center on a lush 30 acre campus, hosts annual camps and seminars for all ages. An electrical cooperative was started by HIM staff upon the donation of large scale generators to provide electricity to our entire community. Up and running now since 2005, our town has lights and a growing percentage of homes have power as well. Our longest running ministry is an orphanage/foster home the "Layton Stamper Memorial Children's Home". Since 1984, this facility has provided room & board, and an education to over 150 children. All of these outreaches are expanding each year. Our founder and current National Director, Caleb Lucien, grew up in Pignon, Haiti. Experiencing the challenges inherent in the developing world caused Caleb to "dream BIG!" He was privileged to be able to study in the U.S. completing his undergrad work at Washington Bible College in Lanham, MD. He then finished two master's degrees (Theology & Education) at Dallas Theological Seminary. In 1989, Caleb returned full time to Haiti to continue expanding the vision of outreach he had for the next generation to have more opportunities than he had found.

Notes

http://www.hosean.org/ChildrensHome.html

The Layton Stamper Children's Home was founded in 1984 to be a safe residence for children and youth who had no alternative. Dedicated in 1988 following the completion of a new dorm facility, the home has been in continuous operation for the past 23 years. The children are provided with food, clothing, and education through ongoing donations through Hosean's donors.

There are 15 children and youth, ranging in age from 2-22 currently living in the children's home facilities. If you would like to support this ministry, please designate "Children's home" on your gift to the stateside office.
