This summer, four ladies are teaming up to serve in Tianjin, China, about an hour outside of Beijing, to minister to the orphans at Shepherd’s Field Children’s Village. We will be working with the children and staff, and serving wherever needed. Shepherd’s Field was founded by Tim and Pam Baker, American teachers who moved to China to teach English. They began volunteering at a local orphanage where they soon met their future daughter. The Baker’s felt God calling them to serve in full time orphan ministry and founded Shepherd’s Field. They partner with over 35 government-run Chinese orphanages, taking all of the unwanted orphans, children that are abandoned due to varying special needs. Providing shelter, food, and healthcare, the foster home also provides education. There are currently about 80 children living at Shepherd’s Field, from 5 months old to 22 years old. Over 3,000 surgeries have been performed and over 800 children have found their “forever families” through the ministry work of the Baker’s. God is at work in a huge way!
