All of us here at New
Jerusalem Ministries welcome another ministry to it's
"Missions" page ... the "Philip Hayden Foundation". We are proud
to prayerfully and financially support this great work.
This is a wonderful ministry that has many different areas within
it's organization focused on the many needs of children in China.
The Philip Hayden Foundation is a non-profit charitable organization,
established for the purpose of helping China's orphaned and special
needs children. PHF was named after Philip Hayden, an American teacher
who went to China in 1991 and began volunteering his spare time and
efforts to help China's orphans. Philip Hayden's love for China's
orphans had a big impact on his teammates in China, Tim and Pam Baker,
who joined him in volunteering in orphanages. The Bakers soon took in
their first orphaned baby, Esther, who they later adopted. Phil had a
special love for Esther and was Tim's assistant and partner in reaching
out to the people of China.
Phil died unexpectedly at the young age of 28 as a result of a rare heart defect. Phil's death and the adoption of Esther had a profound impact on the Bakers. They couldn't help thinking about the orphans who slept to the right and left of Esther. They were still in the orphanage. The Bakers could not adopt them all, but they nonetheless wanted to help them as Phil had. This led them to establish the foundation in his memory in 1995.
