House of Joy Orphanage

Home to 26 young girls, ages 5 through 21. The home was started by Pastor Brisenault and his wife, Joseline, in hopes of improving the life of girls that come from the poorest of conditions. Their vision was to provide a safe place to live, an education and proper nutrition to those children who may not otherwise have received such necessities. Biblical teaching is the foundation of the home and a major part of the girls daily lives--through scripture, dance & music and playtime.
JIH supports the elementary school mainly through its Student Sponsorship Program and by partnering with NCCT for the purchase of the land and building of the school and church. JIH is also responsible for supplying many material needs through yearly shipping containers to bring new desks, teaching materials, school supplies. ​

Haitians are empowered by a group from Kentucky that raises funds to provide materials to build homes as well as funds to hire local laborers. Through prayer and financial backing of this group, it should be said that materials and labor are derived from Haitian sources only! The group provides VBS education while in villages as well as supporting ministry needs for the NCCT.
