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."

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"
