2021 in Review
December 14, 2021

Dear friends,

As we complete our journey through 2021 and looking forward to embracing 2022, I am settling down to write my first “Christmas letter” ever in my life!


We, the “Team Enkrateia” want to thank all of you for your generous support in making “Enkrateia”(en-‘krah-tay-a) a reality in October 2021. Looking back over the past year, we are humbled by the multitude of blessings that continually poured over Enkrateia House of Hope!


Reconditioning the house which we are blessed with to create an expectant mom friendly home was a challenge. Most of the immediate needs are being met and we are almost ready to greet our guests!


Referral sources have started visiting Enkrateia. There have been a few inquiries, but not all women who inquire about our home are a good match for our program. We had five inquiries that we were not yet able to support; however, we were able to direct them to other appropriate resources.


This does not mean that we do not have any challenges ahead. We are still in search of a Resident House Mother to stay in the house with our guests. The good news is that we have quite a few volunteer mothers coming forward to provide support in the short term.


We are marching forward to reach our operating budget. We trust that our good Lord, who brought us this far in nine months, will walk us forward while we do what we are called to do!


As we celebrate the birth of our Counselor, we are reminded that the “Life is a gift”.


Together we can witness the great wonder that He has called us to accomplish! Serving mothers who “Choose Life” by providing a home and building a future!


I acknowledge and greatly appreciate all of you walking with me in this road less travelled! 


May our lives and actions reflect the gratitude for all we have been given.


I wish you and your family all the Blessings that hold Health, Peace, Love and Caring during this “Season of Miracles” and in the New Year ahead.



Therefore, I say THANK YOU for all the love and memories that all of you have given to “Enkrateia House of Hope” to cherish for the years to come.


With gratitude,

Dorothy Arockiasamy

Executive Director
