There’s a point in every climb when the ground shifts beneath you and gravity demands everything you have left. Climbers call it the crux—the hardest move on the mountain. It’s the place that asks not only for strength but for heart, endurance, and faith that the next hold is worth reaching for. At Hands &…

There’s a moment in every climb when the air thins, when vision narrows, and when belief is all that remains between you and the summit. Not the kind of belief that floats lightly on optimism, but the kind that clings—with white-knuckled resolve—to the rope of faith. At Hands & Feet Project, belief is not abstract. It’s…

In Haiti, spiritual care doesn’t happen in a classroom. It happens in the heat of a soccer field, in the laughter echoing through the courtyard, in the tears that come when a child receives their very first award for honesty. It happens when we pause long enough to see each other—to really see—the way Christ…

Every climber knows the word press. To press is to lean your whole weight into resistance, to take the next step when the air thins, when the rock pushes back, when gravity insists you stay low. Scripture is not shy about this kind of pressing. It shows us that growth, refinement, even salvation itself, often…

There comes a moment in every journey when resolve stops being a word and becomes a lifeline. Not the loud kind. Not bravado. Not noise.But the quiet kind—like Abraham’s footsteps up Mount Moriah. Steady. Heavy. Unshakable. We don’t know much about what he said on that climb, only that he brought wood, fire, and his…

In Haiti, school is more than pencils and paper. It’s a lifeline. A meal. A refuge. A future. But it’s a future that far too many children never reach. According to IIEP, 10% of Haitian students drop out before completing sixth grade. By ninth grade, that number jumps to 40%. And if that doesn’t gut…

At the halfway mark of a hard climb, your legs begin to shake. The adrenaline that carried you at the beginning is gone. The peak is nowhere in sight, and the only way forward is through. That’s where we are right now—midway through this year’s journey of Endeavor. And this month, our word is Replenish.…

Life’s journey can feel a lot like climbing a mountain. Each step demands attention, focus, and resilience. The peaks are what we reach for, but the climb can often leave us breathless, questioning if we have enough strength to make it to the top. Focus is what keeps us moving, what keeps us from looking…

In our ongoing quest to broaden the impact we make, to reach new heights we once thought impossible, we commit ourselves to each step of this journey, especially when it comes to those most vulnerable. We, together, are working to shape the lives of children, families, and entire communities across Haiti. One of the foundational…

At Hands & Feet Project, we believe that no family should be torn apart due to poverty, hardship, or crisis. But the reality is, many parents in Haiti are forced to make heartbreaking decisions simply because they lack the resources to provide for their children. We endeavor to stand in the gap. We walk with…
