Lasting impressions

Shelley and Alistair Croudace have been co-directors of Lasting Impressions Christian Camp for almost 30 years. Lasting Impressions conducts educational, environmental, life skills, and leadership development camps for students across the country. The primary lasting impression they want each person to experience is that they are uniquely loved and valued by God and by their staff.

Zimbabwe has been experiencing a series of tough times, and often the youth have bleak views of the future. The Croudaces’ goal is to give them hope by introducing them to Jesus Christ and by equipping them with leadership skills, basic life skills, and a healthy respect for their environment. There is tremendous potential in Zimbabwe’s youth. Shelley and Alistair are uplifting them to make a difference.

HOMES OF LOVE - Zimbabwe 

Homes of Love creates families for orphaned, abandoned, and other at-risk children in Cambodia, Vietnam and Zimbabwe. The love, sense of belonging, and connection to community that comes through living in a family helps our Homes of Love children escape the dangers of poverty, abuse, neglect, and sexual exploitation to grow into thriving adults.

For this reason, we partner with Homes of Love as they partner with Christians in each country to identify, train and support in-country godly parents to raise these children as their own. In Homes of Love families, children receive guidance and love from parents, as well as healthcare and access to education. We believe it is God's design for every child to grow up in a family, and it is our goal to create families for life. Homes of Love parents spend their lives 24/7 teaching and training the children, investing in the next generation.

Shelley Croudace from Lasting Impressions is the director of Homes of Love in Zimbabwe. It's great to see our Fellowship partners join together to make an impact.
