Ephrathta House Christian Ministries

Both Pastor Jason and Kate have had a heart for Africa since their youth; they each tried to visit the continent during their high school years, but that door was not yet open to them. Pastor Jason first visited the African continent in 2019, when he stayed at an orphanage in Malawi for two weeks. That trip changed his life forever. He saw for the first time the global nature of the Body of Christ as well as what true poverty looked like.

Subsequently, God brought Pastor Jason and his wife, Kate, together and gave them a collective heart for African missions. During a trip back to Malawi in 2023, Jason and Kate met three young children living in a shed alone with nowhere to go. God used that event to stop them in their tracks and lead them to care for some of the most vulnerable children on the planet. In obedience to that calling, Ephratha House Christian Ministries was founded and is on its way to embodying the vision that God has for it.
