About Us
Eden surrounds vulnerable children with the family of Christ, addressing their needs holistically through five integrated pillars: spiritual growth (the Church), intellectual growth (the School), physical wellbeing (the Clinic), physical nourishment (the Farm), wrapped up with the foundation of love (the Children’s Village).
Our Story
Founded in 1998, Eden Ministries has grown from a heartfelt vision to a dynamic force for positive change. Our faith in Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of our mission, driving us to serve with love, compassion, and a commitment to biblical principles.
Our primary focus is on providing a loving and secure home for orphans, rooted in the values and teachings of our Christian faith. Beyond orphan care, we actively engage in ministry initiatives, seeking to follow the example of Christ in every way.

Statement Of Faith
While we are not the only Christians, we proudly identify as Christians only.
We accept the Bible, including the 39 books of the Old Testament and the 27 books of the New Testament, as the written Word of God. The Bible is the only essential and infallible record of God’s self-disclosure to mankind. It leads us to salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.
There is one God: infinite, eternal, almighty, and perfect in holiness, truth, and love. In the unity of the godhead there are three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, co-existent, co-equal, co-eternal. One God—Father, Son and Holy Spirit—is the foundation of Christian faith and life.
We believe that in the fullness of time, God honored His covenants with Israel and His prophetic promises of salvation by sending His Son, Jesus, into the world. Conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary, as fully God and fully human in one person, He is humanity as God intended us to be.
We believe that the Holy Spirit was poured out on the Church at Pentecost in power, baptizing believers into the Body of Christ and releasing the gifts of the Spirit to them. The Spirit brings the permanent indwelling presence of God to us for spiritual worship, personal sanctification, building up the Church.
Salvation involves the redemption of the whole man, and is offered freely to all who accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour. In its broadest sense salvation includes regeneration, justification, sanctification, and glorification. There is no salvation apart from personal faith in Jesus Christ as Lord.
We believe this experience does not deliver us from the infirmities, ignorance, and mistakes common to humanity, nor from the possibilities of further sin. The Christian must continue on guard against spiritual pride and seek to gain victory over every temptation to sin. Each believer must respond wholly to the will of God so that sin will lose its power over them, as the world, the flesh, and the devil are put under his feet by the mighty power of God-the Holy Spirit. Thus, the Christian rules over these enemies with watchfulness through the power of the Holy Spirit and in humble submission to the lordship of Jesus Christ through Holy Spirit’s agency on the earth and in our lives.
We believe that God’s kingdom has come in the ministry of our Lord Jesus Christ, that it continues to come in the ministry of the Spirit through the Church, and that it will be consummated in the glorious, visible, and triumphant appearing of Christ – His return to the earth as King. After Christ returns to reign, He will bring about the final defeat of Satan and all of his minions and works, the resurrection of the dead, the final judgment and the eternal blessing of the righteous, and eternal conscious punishment of the wicked. Finally, God will be all in all and His kingdom, His rule and reign, will be fulfilled in the new heavens and the new earth, recreated by His mighty power, in which righteousness dwells and in which He will forever be worshiped.
Because God has ordained the marital relationship as being between one (1) genetic man and one (1) genetic woman (Matthew 19:4-5), a marriage between persons of the same sex is contrary to the religious beliefs and faiths of Eden Ministries, as based in Scripture (1 Corinthians 6:9). Therefore, no minister of the Eden Ministries staff will marry a same sex couple, and Eden Ministries shall not provide services, accommodations, advantages, facilities, goods, or privileges related to the solemnization of a marriage between persons of the same sex, the celebration of such a marriage, or the promotion of such a marriage.
