About The Penuel Foundation
A vision rooted in compassion, serving missionaries and the impoverished across India and beyond.
The Penuel Foundation has evolved out of the compassionate hearts of its visionaries as they seek to serve the needs of missionaries and the impoverished people of their home country, India. In this evolution, the visionaries have prepared the pathway to incorporate and implement the Penuel Foundation, so that it may exist for the purpose of:
- Equipping, educating and supporting missionaries and their work in India and/or other countries
- Supporting, establishing and maintaining facilities that care for the poor and needy in India.
In the past several years, the visionaries of the Penuel Foundation have worked closely with various Indian missionary organizations in sponsoring missionaries throughout India. These sponsorships have allowed the visionaries to provide a steady funding stream to provide monthly support to the missionaries as assistance for housing, food and supplies. It is the desire and purpose of the Penuel Foundation to further extend its financial efforts and support of missionary organizations throughout the globe.
In 2012, one acre of land was donated to the Penuel Foundation for the purpose of building a facility to care for the poor and needy in and around Kerala, India. This facility will initially provide room and board for 48 people and will be staffed by approximately 8 volunteers who will provide direct care services and oversight of the facility.
The visionaries of the Penuel Foundation have drafted building plans that provide 5,000 square feet of living and direct care space and amenities that will meet the housing, nutritional and medical needs of its residents. Furthermore, it is Penuel Foundation's hope to further expand our efforts in regards to this facility by establishing an orphanage and a rehabilitation center to treat those who suffer from addictions of alcohol and drugs.
It is the desire and purpose of the Penuel Foundation to further its vision to support, establish and maintain this facility and others for the purpose of caring for the poor and needy in Kerala, India and other parts of India as God opens doors in which we can serve.
