The Ray of Hope is a Christian organization that provides the support and resources women facing crisis pregnancies need to complete their pregnancy and give birth.
In 1999, three foreign missionaries, Beverly Bedwell, Carolyn Ardron, and Susan Thompson, saw a desperate need in Taiwan to instill hope, support, and love in women facing crisis pregnancies. In response, they started an organization named Ray of Hope. In 2007, Pastor Juanita Price Hebard became the new Executive Director of Ray of Hope. She, along with many volunteers, ministers in the various ministry departments at Ray of Hope.
Three foreign missionaries, Canadians Beverly Bedwell and Carolyn Ardron, alongside American Susan Thompson, identified a critical need in Taiwan: providing hope and support to women facing crisis pregnancies. Out of this vision, “Ray of Hope Christian Charitable Organization” was established, focusing on offering compassionate support and education. Over the years, the organization expanded its services significantly: in 1999, founding the “Crisis Pregnancy Caring Center” followed by the “True Love is Worth Waiting For Department” in 2000. By 2003, it evolved into the “Ray of Hope Christian Registered Charitable Organization,” acquiring facilities like a mama’s home and an office building in subsequent years. Under the leadership of missionary Juanita Hebard from 2007, initiatives such as yearly Thanksgiving Banquets and the “Walk or Stand For Life” event in 2008 were launched. The organization continued to grow, establishing the “Ray of Hope Thrift Store” in 2009, and expanding further with projects like the Bedwell Home Training Center in 2012 and a Baking Project with donated ovens in 2015.
To break the shame mothers feel about unwed and unplanned pregnancies in Taiwan and to provide alternatives other than abortion for women facing unwanted pregnancies.
To promote the sanctity of life, teaching sexual purity and bringing restoration to women in the midst of a crisis due to an unwanted pregnancy or a previous abortion.
