Every Child Ministries uses every penny wisely, and once people get involved with them, they can see just how much they are really accomplishing for women, children, and families in Africa. My daughters have done volunteer work for them for almost 2 years now, and it is a wonderful organization.

I have been giving to Every Child Ministries for years. In these economic times every penny counts and I am only giving where my heart tells me. I am sure that giving to ECM is the right choice because they are very responsible in how they use their funds. I would recommend this organization highly.

This is such an important working ministry. Reaching these African children and making such an impact in their lives. Bring the Word of the Lord and helping to improve their lives with food and shelter and support. I personally support one child along with general donations every year. This is so vital that this ministry continues on. Exceptional direction by John and Lorella Rouster and all that support this ministry. God Bless them in their work. Beth Thomas

This ministry was founded by my Aunt and Uncle and I remember it in its infancy. They have done so much over the last 25 years, it's just amazing how the Lord works through ordinary, everyday people. I just saw them as my Dad's brother and his wife. But they are so much more. The work they have started there and what they have accomplished, the lives they have touched, especially mine. They have come to my church twice and shared with the congregation, lighting a fire in the hearts of many. We now have a ministry of making pasties every month and all the monies go to ECM. I have become a sponsor of an 8 year old boy in DR Congo and I know in my heart that this was something I had been needing to do for a long time. Because of this, I am blessed. Thank you ECM for your love. For reaching out to the forgotten children of Africa, for caring and sharing God's love. Beth Thomas, Potterville, MI

I became associated with ECM back in 2006 because of their focus on impoverished children in Africa, all in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. SInce that time I have had an opportunity to become a financial supporter of this ministry and to sponsor a child in Africa. The impact of this ministry is greater than it's humble origins and low key website would indicate. Although not a high profile ministry, ECM has had a pivotal and lasting impact in several countries in Africa. Long before Kony became known in the international media, ECM staff were in Africa serving thousands of children who were traumatized by his reign of terror, quietly meeting the spiritual, material, and emotional needs of these chidlren. Dollar for dollar, I know this ministry is working amazing things in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, because it is the power of HIs Spirit and HIs love that are being shared by ECM missionaries and staff. Although I also support other higher profile ministries involving children, ECM is closest to my heart!!!

My husband and I have been giving to Every Child Ministries for many years. ECM is an organization that makes a huge impact on the children and slaves they rescue, comfort and educate. They have built schools, rescued street children and freed many slaves in the time we've known them. It has been great to see the progress of Akua, our sponsored child, through the years. The difference between ECM and much larger organizations will be apparent from the start. It's a much more personal giving. You will feel connected, informed and appreciated. In addition, the devotion, sincerity and tireless effort of all the ECM employees continues to amaze us. We would not be giving if we had the slightest doubt about the integrity of ECM - we stand behind them because you couldn't find people more passionate or concerned about the helpless children and slaves that they serve both physically and spiritually.

Many years ago, while listening to the Christian radio station KLOVE, a DJ with direct experience of Every Child Ministries introduced my husband and I to this organization. He inspired us to donate to this very worthy cause. We have had constant communication and updates on a very personal level with ECM every month for years.
The founders and volunteers at ECM are extremely dedicated and inspired Christians. We know this, because we have received repeated confirmation via emails and letters from both ECM headquarters, ECM missionaries, and our sponsored child. The emails and letters are filled with personal stories, specific prayer requests, the challenges of ministering, and faith, hope, and love. They continue to minister despite many obstacles, and they continue to amaze me. I wish there were more than 5 stars to rate ECM with - that's how much I value their dedication and efforts for the lost and homeless children and slaves. They have impressed me all these years, and I can't recommend ECM enough. Words really can't do ECM justice. Their hearts are about the biggest I've ever known.

We have seen the progress our sponsored child has made. We have helped to free slaves. We've read countless communications explaining in great detail the progress, setbacks, plans for the future and prayer requests from ECM headquarters and our sponsored child.

My first thought regarding changes to ECM is an increase in size, but the truth is I have appreciated their relatively smaller size because it has allowed us a much more personal involvement.

We continue to support ECM with enthusiasm. Every visit to their Hebron Headquarters is encouraging. The knowledge, commitment, and dedication on the part of all leaders, employees, and volunteers is obvious. A good work is being done because of them and their dedication to the forgotten children of Africa is evident. We trust that this work can continue to expand as the challenges they are facing and the opportunities they hope to grasp continue to expand. Jim and Marit Wallin, Downers Grove, IL.

We were looking for a non profit organization worthy of our interest. We found it in ECM.
Our first visit to their headquarters was impressive. Operating out of a small frame building in rural Indiana, it was immediately obvious that our donations would not be used for the director's comfort. pride, or anything else except to serve the children of Africa.
ECM serves children in many ways. The most significant to us is Haven of Hope. This is a home where unwanted children are cared for and educated. They are also taught the love that Jesus has for them through His death, burial, and RESURRECTION. We have sponsored a young girl through ECM and have enjoyed observing her growth and developing love for Jesus. She shares a space on our refrigerator and in our hearts with our own grandchildren.
We strongly support ECM as we feel our donations are used with integrity.

Every Child Ministries is an amazing non-profit organization. They are helping to benefit the children and families of Africa. Their aid covers so much more than just financial. They help these children by educating them, by providing spiritual guidance, by feeding, clothing and restoring families. The list goes on and on. Please consider ECM as you compile your non-profits for giving list. May God continue to bless ECM.

ECM is an amazing non-profit, dedicated to improving the lives of children. My husband and I give monthly to their Haven of Hope project, which is a home for orphans and needy children. The newsletters we received detail the work that is being accomplished in the lives of these children and the adults that are also ministered to. Besides dealing with the physical needs of the children, ECM also ministers to their spiritual needs. The work that is being done here is nothing short of miraculous and spreads through out the entire community. Praise the Lord for the workers at ECM, who give of their own lives to be missionaries to those in need.

Every Child Ministries works to serve some of the neediest people, especially children, in Africa. The stories behind the people they help are heart wrenching, but the hope these people find in Jesus is beyond comprehension. The ministry works with sponsoring destitute children, freeing and rehabilitating slaves, feeding street children, among other things. They are small and don't always have many resources, but they are very innovative and responcible with what God does provide. They are also very greatful to donors, even for small amounts. Most importantly, the workers have great faith and believe in the power of prayer.
