Infos

When tragedy struck, Jacques and Ariane Hiriart were living a successful, happy life in France. Their only son, Frantz, age 10, developed leukemia and died 6 months later. Devastating grief led Ariane to plan to take her own life, but Jacques urged her first to join him in a spiritual search. They wanted to learn if there is any evidence of life after death where they could be reunited with their son. That search led them to rediscover God and find new hope. Desiring to serve children, they went to Afghanistan, where their hearts were broken over the plight of children trying to scratch out a living on the streets. They began a center providing these poor children with basic education, hot meals, and vocational training. That center continues today and now serves over 400 children, including children who are deaf and have other special needs.
