You will be called Hephzibah, for the Lord will take delight in you. – Isaiah 62:4

Hi {First Name}

Our founder, Bettie Tyler, was divinely inspired to name her ministry Hephzibah, a Hebrew word that means “my delight is in her.” As she navigated the blessings and challenges of caring for many children over the years, I imagine this name embedded in scripture was an ongoing encouragement. Surely, she cherished the consistent reminder that God delighted in her, her staff and the children in her care.

Today, the name Hephzibah continues to inspire and encourage our team and we hope it will continue to inspire you, our valued supporters and partners.

Surely, the Lord DELIGHTS in those who are sacrificially giving and working to multiply our mission and the children and families they are serving and bringing into their families!

Enjoy just a sampling of the stories of impact from the past year below.

Since our re-launch in March of 2019, Hephzibah62:4 has achieved operational self-sustainability while investing in Wesleyan churches, families, and students through collaborative coaching and nearly $210,000 in total grants. These grant funds are prayerfully and carefully stewarded by our team to provide funding for adoptions, family support, ministry support, and equipping experiences for church staff and ministry leaders. All these help to build and sustain effective, transformative ministries to vulnerable children.

With your help, we will continue to multiply the Hephzibah62:4 mission. Please prayerfully consider making a generous year-end gift today!

Thank you for your prayers for our staff and board, our church partners and their ministries, and each vulnerable child and family we can impact with the love of Christ.

Merry Christmas, with love and gratitude,

Jodi and the Hephzibah62:4 Team

*OUR 100% PLEDGE: Because all administrative costs are funded by interest earned on investment from the sale of the former Hephzibah property, every penny of your gift will be used for grants and resources to equip Wesleyan people and local church ministries committed to transforming the lives of vulnerable children.
