Gather1 Ethiopia exists to reveal the gospel of God’s love.
Through being a home to the orphans, providing education, relief, development, and discipleship, we want to show that the power of the cross and the resurrection of Christ will bring life and restoration.

Background
Since the start of the civil war of South Sudan in 2013, over 2,280,000 people have fled their homes and have become refugees. 420,000 refugees have settled in the Gambella Region, and so have we. The founders of Gather1, Brad and Kim Campbell and their family, also fled the war of South Sudan in 2014 with their staff and several children who were in their care.
What we do
Since then, we have established a Children’s Center in Gambella, Ethiopia that cares for critical needs children who have lost their parents due to war or extreme poverty. We help the children and local staff finish their education, disciple them, teach life-skills, and create jobs so that they can become Kingdom builders within their families and communities.
local partners
Gather1 has an alliance with Victory Fellowship Church Gambella, a local church, to provide leadership training and discipleship for the church. They assist Gather1 in caring for the needs within the community and making connections to children who need a home.
Developement
Gather1 is developing 13 acres of land to create a larger Children’s Center that can house 200 children, staff, and missionaries. A church has already been built, gardens have been established, and 2 wells have been dug. Our next step is building homes for the children, staff, and missionaries, a multipurpose building for activities and education, latrines, and a kitchen. Our current financial need to complete this next phase is $70,000. You can help us by making a donation and specifying that you are making your donation towards the Children’s Center Building Fund.
