"The Poor Houses history stands as one of the finer traditions of
Western civilization. One moves back, and back, from the American
South, to New England, to Old England, the European Continent, the
abbeys, the Christians of the late Roman Empire. The end of the
journey is Jesus Christ Himself. "- Clearly the Savior of mankind
taught that the strong must help the weak. The Poor House principle
of doing good to those who were unable to give anything in return,
was a reflection of this teaching of Christ. This principle was
carried out only through the caregivers' self-sacrifice, which was
sometimes extreme. One may even say that it was a faint portrayal
and reminder of Christ's sacrificial dying to provide eternal
salvation for the many." Henry Hope is an author living in
retirement in metro Atlanta, as a sixth-generation resident of this
city. He was privileged to visit thirty-one countries, lecturing,
teaching, or preaching in six of them. Missions, his primary
ministry interest, led him to join Mission India, after spending
years in Presbyterian pastorates. He and his wife Betty have two
children and six grandchildren, all likewise based in the metro
area. In addition to The Poor Houses, Henry has written an
adventure-and-romance novel, which will be available shortly.
