Wilson Sarapali is a missionary who serves in Hydrabad, India. His ministry is to equip, educate, empower and support pastors in India. In India, pastors are not allowed to earn an income and are therefore 100% donor supported. Wilson's ministry is currently supporting approximately 40 pastors throughout India.

Heartspring Orphanage and School, situated in Homa Bay, offers sanctuary and housing to 96 orphaned children and provides essential education to 360 children who would otherwise lack access to such opportunities. 

Koins and Kans for Kenya is coordinated by Sarah Kuster. Drop off recyclable bottles and cans at Upper Valley Ministries and she will make sure all proceeds go to support Heartspring. You can also drop change/donations in the bucket available at the church. A little goes a long way to change lives.

In 1983, Nelson Amador left San Ramón, Nicaragua, the last of nine siblings sent to safety in the US during a dangerous post-revolution time. After ten years, he returned home in 1993 and introduced his American wife, Tanya, and their children to his hometown and a way of life that he still longs for. Together they dreamed of how they could someday help rebuild San Ramón and nourish people both physically and spiritually. In the year 2000, they began working to make this dream a reality in Nicaragua. Almost twenty years of ministry followed building churches, schools, drilling wells, and bringing doctors and dentists to rural villages throughout the country until Corner of Love had to leave because the Sandinista Government criminalized humanitarian aid in 2018.
When that transpired, Corner of Love moved all operations to Costa Rica (August 2018). Two Relief Centers for Refugees were opened in Costa Rica and Corner of Love branched out to help displaced families throughout numerous nations in Latin America.
Today Corner of Love hosts teams of volunteers from all over the world in Costa Rica and Colombia and serves needy people at border areas throughout Central and South America. Groups that serve with Corner of Love arrive at LIR (Liberia, Costa Rica) or CUC (Cucuta, Colombia) airports and serve in La Cruz, Costa Rica and right at the Venezuela-Colombia border. Through medical, dental, and optical clinics, service and water improvement projects, educational aid, and church development, the mission has grown into a major source of help for people living on less than $2US per day throughout the hemisphere.
