Hein Vingerling and Mark Hopkins have been involved in mission work on the Central Plateau of Haiti since 1990.

In 1996 they founded Matthew Twenty-Eight, Inc.

Their mission is to bring the gospel to the Central Plateau by supporting the Mathieu Vingt-Huit Orphanage in Bohoc and through the support of ten feeding centers where 80 kids get 4 meals per week.

Matthew Twenty-Eight is a 501(c)3 organization.

The orphanage under the leadership of Paulius Lucien currently houses 42 children.
