About Yeshua Ethnos Ministries
Empowering Children Through Faith and Compassion
Transforming Lives Across Nations
Yeshua Ethnos Ministries is on a mission to bring hope, healing, and empowerment to children facing adversity worldwide. Our holistic approach addresses children's educational, health, emotional, and spiritual needs, creating lasting change in families, communities, and schools across Asia, South Asia, America, and Latin America.
A Journey of Faith, Hope, and Healing
Yeshua Ethnos Ministries stands as more than just an organization—it's a calling and a testament to the healing power of faith. The name itself embodies the ministry's purpose:
"Yeshua" (Hebrew for Joshua and Jesus)
"Ethnos" (Greek for nations)
Together, these represent the ministry's mission: to bring Christ's healing power to children across nations, enabling them to stand strong in any circumstance.
Our Founding Story: Joshua's Battle
In May 2018, the lives of Maruthi and Leena Karpey were forever changed when their four-year-old son, Joshua, was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia. As parents, they felt helpless watching their child suffer. However, in their darkest hour, the Karpey family found strength in God's promise:
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go." - Joshua 1:9
This verse became the family's beacon of hope. Through a combination of faith, prayer, and excellent medical care, Joshua emerged victorious over cancer. His courageous journey inspired his parents to create Yeshua Ethnos Ministries, a 501(c)(3) non-profit Christian organization dedicated to helping children facing similar challenges.
Our Mission and Vision
We aim to empower children worldwide to face their challenges with courage and faith, just as Joshua did. Our mission is to serve future generations, enabling them to overcome adversity and become beacons of hope in their communities.
We envision a world where every child, regardless of their circumstances, can thrive and reach their full potential. Through holistic child development programs, we strive to nurture children into educated, self-sustained individuals who can transform their worlds.
