Welcome to Hilltop Light Ministries—a global mission with a heart for transformation.
Since 1985, Hilltop Light Ministries has been dedicated to bringing hope where it’s needed most. What began as a small outreach has grown into a powerful movement of faith and compassion, reaching lives across Africa, India, and America.
We exist to serve the hopeless, uplift the vulnerable, and share the light of Christ through tangible acts of love. Your partnership empowers us to expand our reach, deepen our impact, and change even more lives. Together, we can be the hands and feet of hope in a hurting world.
Charity begins at home—and for more than three decades, we dedicated ourselves to feeding our neighbors right in Vermont.
In partnership with the Vermont Foodbank, Hilltop Light Ministries played a key role in addressing local food insecurity. As one of the Foodbank’s earliest and longest-standing member organizations, we proudly served our community with compassion and care. While this chapter has come to a close, its impact remains a lasting part of our legacy.
Our Mission: Serving with Purpose at Home and Abroad
Supporting People in Need Since 1986
For nearly four decades, Hilltop has been a trusted presence, supporting families in need through our Holiday Food Program. From Thanksgiving baskets to Christmas meals with all the trimmings, we’ve helped bring comfort and dignity to countless households.
Through our Toy Program—first with Toys for Tots and later with Vermont Toys for Kids—we’ve partnered with community leaders like the late John Welch to provide gifts and joy to children whose families were facing hardship. These efforts reflect our enduring commitment to serving our local community.
A Global Call to Service
Over 40 years ago, our mission expanded beyond the U.S. with our first outreach to Nigeria, West Africa—sharing the gospel and distributing clothing to children in need. We continued our work in Ghana, partnering with the late Pastor Victor O. Baofo and the Apostolic Church of Ghana to preach, teach, and provide for vulnerable families.
In Malawi, Southeast Africa, our efforts grew even further. We established chicken farms, planted maize, built churches, opened an orphanage in Luchenza, and constructed a facility to house the children. We also provided clean drinking water by digging a well, hosted workshops for rural pastors, and fed hundreds through community outreach events.
Extending Compassion to India
Fifteen years ago, we answered a call from India. There, we helped establish a grassroots orphanage, offering food, clothing, blankets, dental care, and holiday meals with gifts for every child. Our partners, Evangeline and Ashok, continue this vital work today—bringing hope and care to local Indian communities.
We’re bringing the Word of God to those who need it most across Africa.
Right now, Bibles are being placed in the hands of individuals hungry for hope, faith, and truth.
