"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."
—James 1:27

Bethesda Outreach is a ministry of Evangelical Baptist Missions. Bethesda's mission is to encourage and assist local churches in meeting the needs of orphan children, that they may become disciples of Christ. Bethesda is carrying out that mission in South Africa, where nearly one in five people are infected with AIDS. Thousands of parents are dying daily, leaving behind countless numbers of orphan children who are desperately trying to survive.

By placing these children in a loving home with godly South African parents, Bethesda is trusting God to build strong families for His glory. We are committed to providing a quality education which will help the children not only to find future employment, but also to serve God with their resources. Our hope is that as our children become disciples of Christ, they will develop a passion to see others follow Christ.
