Our Goals – International House of Bread An Interdenominational Christian Mission Serving the Oppressed, the Poor, and the Persecuted (1999–2025)Since our founding in 1999, International House of Bread has remained deeply committed to its calling: to serve Jesus by serving “the least of these” — the poor, the displaced, the oppressed, and the forgotten. As an interdenominational Christian ministry with a global footprint, our work has stretched across Poland, Sweden, Scotland, and India, reaching some of the most vulnerable populations around the world.Today, we reflect on our goals — not simply as a vision, but as an ongoing reality and calling. These are not just ideals, but active missions driven by faith, compassion, and practical love.&nbsp; 1. Supporting People and Children Living in Poverty At the heart of our ministry is the call to "care for the orphan and the widow" (James 1:27). Through long-term partnerships with faithful local leaders, we provide food, education, shelter, and hope to children and families living in extreme poverty.India, Chennai – In partnership with Pastor Augustine Yesudoss, we serve children and disabled individuals living in under-resourced communities. Many of these children come from homes affected by illness, addiction, or abandonment — yet they are now embraced by a community of care and support. Uganda – Orphanage of Mercy – Led by Mugerwa Sharfic, this home provides love and stability for orphans in one of Uganda’s poorest regions. Our support helps with daily care, education, and emotional healing. Pakistan – Girls' Orphanage – In collaboration with Taskeen Warren, we provide a safe haven for vulnerable girls, many of whom have faced rejection, abuse, or exploitation. Here, they find dignity, discipleship, and a future rooted in Christ. &nbsp; 2. Helping the Persecuted and Oppressed We stand with persecuted Christians, refugees, and victims of violence and exploitation. This part of our ministry is bold, sensitive, and often carried out quietly to protect those we serve.Shelter for Persecuted Christians – Whether fleeing war zones or targeted for their faith, believers find refuge and restoration through safe housing, trauma support, and spiritual care. Combating Human Trafficking – We partner with local teams to rescue and rehabilitate victims of trafficking, offering a path toward freedom and healing in Christ. Support for Victims of Domestic Violence – We work to restore safety and dignity for women and children escaping abusive situations, providing emergency aid, counseling, and a pathway to recovery. Care for Children from Dysfunctional Homes – Many children live in the aftermath of addiction, abandonment, or neglect. We help rebuild their futures through mentorship, housing, and education. Fighting Poverty Through Practical Outreach – Food distribution, clothing, schooling, and small-business support are some of the ways we help lift families from the cycle of poverty and into a life of hope. &nbsp; Faith in Action, Love Without Borders Our vision has always been global, but our focus is always personal. Every child, every refugee, every broken heart we encounter is seen and known by God—and must be seen and known by us. From the slums of Chennai to rural villages in Uganda, from the orphanages of Pakistan to displaced Christian families in Europe, International House of Bread exists to be the hands and feet of Christ.As we move toward 2025 and beyond, we remain fully committed to these goals. We invite you—churches, individuals, partners, and prayer warriors—to stand with us. Let us continue to invest in lives, restore dignity, and proclaim the Gospel through practical acts of love and justice.“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in…” — Matthew 25:35 &nbsp; Together, we are building a house of bread — not just of food, but of hope, healing, and the Bread of Life Himself.

It was more than just a ceremony—it was a celebration of new life, transformation, and the deep, unshakable love of Jesus Christ.From the moment worship began, the atmosphere was filled with awe. The voices of the congregation lifted in unity, singing songs of redemption and surrender. Families, friends, and members of the House of Bread India community came together not just as spectators, but as one body—supporting, praying, and rejoicing together.The baptism itself was a powerful moment. As each individual stepped into the water, there was a sacred stillness, followed by overwhelming joy as they came up renewed. Each testimony was a moving reminder of God's grace—stories of healing, of chains broken, of hearts restored. Tears flowed freely, not of sorrow, but of overwhelming gratitude for the transformative work of the Holy Spirit.<figure id="figure-qpzmp2qilxmdn1lwmy"><img id="qpzmp2qilxmdn1lwmy" src="https://cdn.durable.co/blocks/2bfoO0u4KagI6MXNnIhEKGG0PVKACR3jmYTRxcG7fNliuc2etNDsYI7Vufj9FjGW.jpg" alt="" title="" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9; object-position: center center;" data-corners="default" data-aspect="16:9" data-caption="" data-positionX="undefined" data-positionY="undefined" data-fullWidth="false"/></figure>

<h2>The Role of Faith-Based Communities &amp; Photos Of Our History</h2>Faith-based communities have long played a pivotal role in shaping the city's cultural and social landscape. These communities offer more than just a place of worship; they are beacons of hope, support, and transformation for many residents. From providing essential services to fostering a sense of belonging, their impact is profound and far-reaching.<figure id="figure-dmpc7y923rmcoozf4x"><img id="dmpc7y923rmcoozf4x" src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/d3Z7YMF4pFMcnXNMyWuNt2b6ePqQhxGOv8H3cvhMAAq91Ej8vpUhC4BM1nBaoXCz.jpeg" alt="faith community" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/d3Z7YMF4pFMcnXNMyWuNt2b6ePqQhxGOv8H3cvhMAAq91Ej8vpUhC4BM1nBaoXCz.jpeg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;"></figure><h3>Community Support and Outreach</h3>Faith-based organisations are often at the forefront of community support and outreach efforts. They provide a wide array of services, such as food banks, clothing drives, and emergency assistance, which are crucial for families and individuals facing challenging times. These initiatives not only help meet immediate needs but also empower individuals by providing them with the resources to improve their circumstances.One of the most significant aspects of this outreach is the focus on inclusivity and acceptance. Faith communities welcome people from all walks of life, ensuring that everyone has access to support and guidance regardless of their background. At International House Of Bread, we are not only an interdenominational charity but an interfaith based charity that shares the love&nbsp; and truth to all nations, step by step.&nbsp;<h3>Promoting Mental and Emotional Well-being</h3>Beyond physical needs, faith-based groups also address mental and emotional well-being. By offering counseling services, support groups, and spiritual guidance, they help individuals navigate life's challenges with resilience and hope. These services are invaluable in a world where mental health issues are increasingly prevalent and often stigmatized.<figure id="figure-rgdrecwlvwmcoozpsk"><img id="rgdrecwlvwmcoozpsk" src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/fSBgUMYjDXJORZZWaH2lcALUo5Ff7O7rg1ehhUpzRzj5MTLAggk0uGk2jOgacVRR.jpeg" alt="mental health support" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/fSBgUMYjDXJORZZWaH2lcALUo5Ff7O7rg1ehhUpzRzj5MTLAggk0uGk2jOgacVRR.jpeg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;"></figure><h3>Educational and Youth Programs</h3>Youth-oriented programs are another cornerstone of faith-based communities in Dundee. These initiatives provide educational support, mentorship, and recreational activities for young people. By investing in the next generation, these communities help shape future leaders who are compassionate, socially responsible, and community-minded.Moreover, educational programs often include life skills training, which equips youth with the tools they need to succeed personally and professionally. These programs foster a nurturing environment where young people can thrive and reach their full potential.<figure id="figure-eekrpxyzomcoozy58"><img id="eekrpxyzomcoozy58" src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/1caNF0B3vOw1Kn6U62ojFXBJJhtSOROZ0Fg77OSZjzYbEGPq73rzJplq4fJ6X69s.jpeg" alt="youth education" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/1caNF0B3vOw1Kn6U62ojFXBJJhtSOROZ0Fg77OSZjzYbEGPq73rzJplq4fJ6X69s.jpeg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;"></figure><h3>Cultural Enrichment and Unity</h3>Faith-based communities also contribute to cultural enrichment and unity within Dundee. Through various events, festivals, and interfaith dialogues, they celebrate diversity while promoting understanding and cooperation among different cultural groups. Such efforts help bridge gaps and build stronger, more cohesive communities.These cultural activities not only highlight the richness of Dundee's diverse population but also encourage residents to appreciate and learn from each other's traditions and beliefs.<h3>Volunteering and Personal Growth</h3>Volunteering is a vital component of faith-based communities, offering individuals the opportunity to give back while experiencing personal growth. Many community members dedicate their time and skills to various initiatives, which fosters a sense of purpose and fulfillment.<figure id="figure-ycw0jql5k7mcop04yz"><img id="ycw0jql5k7mcop04yz" src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/24xT9fr5gdbrmf5e4JSc81yd1sMzMB8s0RBZaCLcoKz0DV2dliYJmRdC2ZO0MNHR.jpeg" alt="volunteer work" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/24xT9fr5gdbrmf5e4JSc81yd1sMzMB8s0RBZaCLcoKz0DV2dliYJmRdC2ZO0MNHR.jpeg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;"></figure>Through volunteering, individuals build meaningful connections, develop new skills, and gain a deeper understanding of their own values and beliefs. This personal growth contributes to a more compassionate and engaged community that is equipped to tackle future challenges together.<h2>Our History</h2>Our history in faith-based communities at an international level is shown since 1999 in Gdynia.&nbsp; As an international charity, we share the gospel and plan to reach every Christian community, worldwide.&nbsp; Here are some of the photos that we are sharing with you -&nbsp;1.

People Donating Food To Charity Food Bank Collection In Community Center

<h2>Understanding the Role of Food Banks in Scotland</h2>Food banks play a crucial role in supporting individuals and families facing food insecurity in Scotland. These community-driven initiatives provide essential food supplies to those in need, ensuring that no one goes hungry. With rising living costs and economic challenges, food banks are becoming an increasingly important resource.In Scotland, food banks operate on a non-profit basis, relying heavily on donations from the public, local businesses, and supermarkets. They distribute food parcels to individuals who are referred by frontline professionals such as social workers and health visitors. The aim is to offer short-term relief while also connecting people with additional support services.<h2>How Food Banks Work</h2>Food banks typically operate through a referral system. Individuals in need are usually referred by professionals or organizations who assess their situation. Once referred, they can receive a food parcel, which contains a variety of nutritious items to last for several days.Each food parcel is tailored to meet dietary needs and preferences, ensuring that recipients receive appropriate nutrition. Food banks also provide guidance on meal planning and budgeting to help individuals make the most of their supplies.<h3>How You Can Support Food Banks</h3>There are numerous ways to support food banks in Scotland. Here are some practical options:<ul><li>Donate Food: Most food banks have collection points at local supermarkets where you can donate non-perishable items.</li><li>Volunteer: Offering your time to help sort donations or distribute parcels can make a significant difference.</li><li>Fundraise: Organize events or activities to raise funds that can be used to purchase essential supplies.</li></ul><h2>The Importance of Community Involvement</h2>The success of food banks relies heavily on community support. Local involvement not only helps sustain these vital services but also fosters a sense of solidarity and care within communities. By working together, communities can create a safety net for their most vulnerable members.<figure id="figure-9aoxeh7aojmcoouzks"><img id="9aoxeh7aojmcoouzks" src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/25fmCoMQ4tsQeJHQmq80nXNNY9saJaEnkDBbwzaPSOWe1c1wZLyDb114NW2DxEDn.jpeg" alt="community supporting food bank" class="object-cover bg-gray-100 rounded-sm md:rounded-md lg:rounded-lg" style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;" data-mce-src="https://cdn.durable.co/getty/25fmCoMQ4tsQeJHQmq80nXNNY9saJaEnkDBbwzaPSOWe1c1wZLyDb114NW2DxEDn.jpeg" data-mce-style="aspect-ratio: 16/9;"></figure>Community involvement extends beyond donations and volunteering. It includes raising awareness about the issues of food poverty and advocating for systemic changes that address the root causes of hunger. By understanding the challenges faced by those in need, individuals can become more empathetic and proactive in their support.<h3>Future Challenges and Opportunities</h3>As demand for food bank services continues to rise, there are both challenges and opportunities ahead. Food banks must adapt to changing circumstances, such as economic fluctuations and shifts in government policy. There is also an ongoing need for innovation in how food banks operate, including the use of technology to streamline distribution and improve efficiency.Opportunities for growth include forging stronger partnerships with businesses and other charitable organizations, as well as exploring new funding models to ensure sustainability. By embracing these opportunities, food banks can continue to provide vital support to those who need it most.
