Our Philosophy In today's complex world, we recognize the need for bold problem-solvers with diverse perspectives who are willing to take risks to foster meaningful change. Our mission is to inspire and support communities not only in the USA but across the globe. We believe that actions speak louder than words, and we are committed to putting our faith into action. As Scripture reminds us: "You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love." (Galatians 5:13) "Faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead." (James 2:14-17) We are dedicated to promoting justice, equality, and compassion, following the call in Micah 6:8 to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God. Our Ministries and Focus Areas Jehovah Saints Our online ministry serves as a virtual space for spiritual growth, education, and community-building. Through this platform, we share the Gospel, provide biblical guidance, and connect believers worldwide. Jehovah Saints Homeless Shelters Focused on addressing homelessness, these shelters provide safety, support, and resources to individuals in need, inspired by the teachings of Matthew 25:35-40: "I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in." Jehovah Saints International Through our global efforts, we extend help and hope to communities worldwide, providing aid, resources, and spiritual support to those in need. Our Goals Establish Homeless Shelters Worldwide We are committed to creating shelters across the globe, offering not only a place to stay but also resources to empower individuals to rebuild their lives. Inspired by Matthew 25:35-40, we work tirelessly to care for "the least of these." Restore Bible Classes in Schools and Prevent School Shootings We advocate for the reintroduction of Bible classes in schools, believing that a foundation of faith, morality, and purpose can help guide young minds and prevent tragedies like school shootings. Rooted in Proverbs 22:6: "Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it." End Abortion We defend the sanctity of life and work to end abortion through education, advocacy, and support for expectant mothers. Guided by Psalm 139:13-16, we affirm the value of all life: "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb." Prison Ministry We have plans to reach out to incarcerated individuals, offering spiritual guidance, support, and rehabilitation programs to help them find redemption and purpose. Our efforts are inspired by Romans 6:23: "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." Jehovah Saints is a 508(c)(1)(a) non-profit organization. What is a 508 c1a non-profit? 508 c1a non-profit is a special type of faith-based nonprofit recognized under the Internal Revenue Code. But what exactly is a 508(c)(1)(a) nonprofit organization? A 508(c)(1)(a) nonprofit is a religious, tax-exempt organization that operates as a church, ministry, or faith-based entity. Unlike traditional 501(c)(3) nonprofits, 508(c)(1)(a) organizations are automatically tax-exempt and do not need to apply for formal recognition from the IRS to receive this status. This classification is specifically designed for churches, their auxiliaries, and associations of churches, allowing them to focus on their religious mission without excessive government oversight. Key Features of a 508(c)(1)(a) Nonprofit Organization: Automatic Tax-Exempt Status These organizations are automatically considered tax-exempt under IRS rules and are not required to file for 501(c)(3) status. Faith-Based Mission They are established primarily for religious purposes, such as ministry, worship, and outreach. Freedom of Speech 508(c)(1)(a) organizations have more flexibility in engaging in political or social advocacy, as long as it aligns with their religious mission. Tax-Deductible Donations Contributions made to these organizations are tax-deductible for donors, just like with 501(c)(3) organizations. Why Choose a 508(c)(1)(a) Nonprofit? This structure is ideal for faith-based organizations like Jehovah Saints International because it allows the organization to: Focus on its religious mission without needing formal IRS approval. Engage in advocacy or political speech without the restrictions imposed on 501(c)(3) organizations. In summary, a 508(c)(1)(a) nonprofit organization is a powerful option for ministries and religious organizations seeking to serve their communities while maintaining their independence and fulfilling their faith-based mission. Jehovah Saints International embraces this unique structure to maximize its impact and focus on its global outreach efforts.

  • Future Temple | Jehovah Saints Homeless Shelter ProgramJehovah's HOUSE of Saints - Founder: Michael Hopkins

    "Experience the Jehovah Saints Future Temple, a groundbreaking fusion of faith and technology. A beacon of light and innovation, uniting spirituality, advanced design, and global worship in a sanctuary of eternal hope." VISION Future Jehovah Saints International Headquarters Image Loading... Unity in Worship: A Vision of Peace and Collaboration The Image and Its Meaning The image above is an AI-generated representation, intentionally designed to resemble a mosque with a cross on top, symbolizing the unity and shared foundations of the Abrahamic faiths: Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. It reflects the vision of Jehovah Saints to foster collaboration and mutual respect among these faiths, as we all worship the same God—the God of Abraham. Scripture Inspiration: “Have we not all one Father? Did not one God create us?” — Malachi 2:10 Shared Heritage: The God of Abraham Our vision is inspired by the shared ancestry of the Abrahamic religions: Judaism: The descendants of Abraham’s son Jacob. Islam: The descendants of Abraham’s son Ishmael. Christianity: Those who follow the teachings of Jesus Christ, who is rooted in the lineage of Abraham. These three faiths are intrinsically connected, all tracing their spiritual heritage back to Abraham, a man of great faith and obedience to God. Scripture Inspiration: “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” — Genesis 12:2-3 A Vision for Peace and Unity Jehovah Saints knows that Jews, Muslims, and Christians are brothers and sisters under God, and we are called to live in peace and harmony. Our vision is to reflect this unity in our actions and projects. By incorporating architectural elements of both mosques and churches, we aim to symbolize the shared values and aspirations of these faiths. Our ultimate goal is to foster peace on Earth while serving those in need, such as through our global homeless shelter initiatives. Scripture Inspiration: “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.” — Matthew 5:9 The Call to Love Your Neighbor At the heart of our mission is the commandment to love and treat others as we would want to be treated. This principle is shared across Christianity, Judaism, and Islam and is the foundation of our work. Christianity: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” — Mark 12:31 Judaism: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” — Leviticus 19:18 Islam: “None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for himself.” — Sahih Muslim 45 By treating everyone as our neighbor, regardless of faith or background, we aim to build bridges of understanding and compassion. Building Homeless Shelters: A Shared Mission Our work to build homeless shelters worldwide reflects our commitment to serving humanity and living out the values of our faith. This mission transcends religious boundaries and focuses on the shared call to care for the vulnerable and uplift the downtrodden. Scripture Inspiration: “If there is a poor man among your brothers in any of the towns of the land that the Lord your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward your poor brother. Rather, be openhanded and freely lend him whatever he needs.” — Deuteronomy 15:7-8 Our Goal: Peace and Compassion Our goal is simple yet profound: Promote Unity: Recognize the shared heritage and values of the Abrahamic faiths. Seek Peace: Work toward harmony among all people, regardless of their faith. Serve Others: Love and care for our neighbors as ourselves, fulfilling the command of God. Scripture Inspiration: “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!” — Psalm 133:1 We invite you to join us in this mission of unity, peace, and service. Whether through prayer, donations, or active participation, you can be part of this vision to create a world where faith unites rather than divides, and where love and compassion are extended to all. Scripture Inspiration: “Let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” — 1 John 3:18 Reading Script Above 00:00 / 04:21 "Give Hope"

  • Bible in All Languages | Jehovah Saints Homeless Shelter Program

    "Get a free Bible in any language! Access the Word of God in your native tongue and grow in faith. Request your free copy today and explore Scripture in the language you understand best." The Story of the Living Word Across the World In a small village nestled in the mountains of Ethiopia, an elderly woman named Asha sat on her wooden stool, holding a well-worn copy of the Bible in her hands. The text was written in Amharic, her native language, a gift from missionaries who had visited her village decades ago. Asha’s Bible was her most treasured possession, but she often wondered how many other people across the world could read the Word of God in their own tongue. Little did she know, her question would lead her on an extraordinary journey of discovery. One night, as Asha prayed by candlelight, she felt a strange warmth in her heart. Closing her eyes, she asked, “Lord, how far has Your Word traveled? How many voices speak Your truth?” When she opened her eyes, she found herself standing in a vast library. Shelves stretched endlessly in every direction, filled with books of every size, color, and language. A man with kind eyes and a radiant glow approached her. “Welcome, Asha,” he said. “This is the Library of the Living Word. Here, you’ll find every translation of the Bible, written in every language of the world.” Asha gasped. “Every language? Every translation?” The man nodded. “Yes, my child. Let me show you the journey of God’s Word, from its original languages to the farthest corners of the earth.” The Original Word The man led Asha to a golden shelf at the center of the library. “This is where it all began,” he said, pointing to three ancient scrolls. “The Bible was first written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. The Old Testament was primarily written in Hebrew, with some passages in Aramaic, like parts of Daniel and Ezra. The New Testament was written in Koine Greek, the common language of the Roman Empire.” Asha touched the scrolls reverently. “So these are the first words of God’s story?” “Yes,” the man said. “But God’s Word was never meant to stay in one place or one language. It was meant to reach every nation.” The Early Translations The man led Asha to another shelf, where she saw ancient manuscripts in languages she didn’t recognize. “These are the earliest translations,” he explained. “The Septuagint, a Greek translation of the Hebrew Scriptures, was made around 300 BC for Jews living in Alexandria who no longer spoke Hebrew. Then came the Peshitta, a Syriac translation, and the Latin Vulgate, translated by St. Jerome in the 4th century. The Vulgate became the standard Bible for the Western Church for over a thousand years.” Asha marveled at the faded pages. “These translations must have taken so much work.” “They did,” the man agreed. “But the translators believed that everyone deserved to hear God’s Word in their own language.” The Reformation and the Explosion of Translations The man walked further down the aisle, where the books became more numerous. “During the Reformation, the Bible began to be translated into the languages of the common people. Martin Luther translated the Bible into German in 1522, and William Tyndale translated it into English. These translations brought the Word of God to millions who had never been able to read it before.” Asha picked up a Bible with ornate lettering. “What is this one?” “That’s the King James Version, completed in 1611,” the man said. “It became one of the most influential English translations in history. But it’s just one of many. Today, there are hundreds of English translations, each with its own approach to the text.” The Modern Translations The man waved his hand, and a wall of books appeared, each labeled with a different English translation. “Here you’ll find the New International Version (NIV), the New Living Translation (NLT), the English Standard Version (ESV), the New Revised Standard Version (NRSV), the Christian Standard Bible (CSB), and many more. Each one seeks to make the Bible accessible to modern readers.” Asha’s head spun as she read the titles: The Message, the Amplified Bible, the Good News Translation, the New King James Version, and more. “Why so many versions in one language?” “Each translation serves a different purpose,” the man explained. “Some aim for word-for-word accuracy, while others focus on conveying the meaning in a way that’s easy to understand. Together, they help people connect with God’s Word in different ways.” The Global Reach The man led Asha to another section of the library, where the shelves were filled with Bibles in countless languages. “Here is where the true beauty of God’s Word is revealed,” he said. “The Bible has been translated into over 3,600 languages, with portions available in thousands more.” Asha picked up a Bible written in Swahili, then another in Mandarin Chinese. “How did this happen?” “Through the dedication of translators, missionaries, and organizations like Wycliffe Bible Translators, the United Bible Societies, and many others,” the man said. “They have spent decades working to bring the Bible to every language group on earth.” He pointed to a shelf labeled with African languages: Zulu, Xhosa, Yoruba, Igbo, and Hausa. “Here are translations for the people of Africa.” He moved to another shelf labeled with Asian languages: Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Tagalog, Japanese, and Korean. “And here are translations for Asia.” They continued walking, passing Bibles in Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German for Europe and the Americas, as well as indigenous languages like Quechua, Navajo, and Cherokee. Asha’s eyes filled with tears. “So many people can read God’s Word in their own language.” The Work Continues The man stopped at a small, empty shelf. “But the work is not yet finished,” he said. “There are still over 1,800 languages without any portion of Scripture. Millions of people are still waiting to hear God’s Word in their heart language.” Asha felt a pang of sadness. “What can be done?” “God is raising up people to complete the work,” the man said. “Translators, linguists, and missionaries are working tirelessly to bring the Bible to every tribe and tongue. And you, Asha, can pray for them and support their work.” The Power of the Word As they returned to the center of the library, the man said, “The Bible is more than just a book. It is the living Word of God, speaking to people in every language and culture. It has the power to transform lives, bring hope, and unite people across the world.” Asha nodded, her heart full of awe and gratitude. “Thank you for showing me this.” When she opened her eyes, she was back in her small village, her Amharic Bible in her hands. But now, she saw it with new eyes. It was not just her Bible—it was part of a great tapestry of God’s Word, woven through every language and every nation. From that day on, Asha prayed daily for the work of Bible translation, knowing that one day, every person on earth would hear the Good News in their own tongue. Epilogue: Every Tribe and Tongue The story of Bible translation is still being written. From the King James Version to the NIV, from Swahili to Siberian Yupik, the Word of God continues to spread. One day, as Revelation 7:9 promises, people from every nation, tribe, and language will stand before the throne of God, united in worship. Until then, the work goes on, bringing the living Word to every corner of the earth.
