Hasiet
“But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.” 2Timothy 4:5
Hasiet Negash was born on May 15, 1995, to Pastor Ambelie Negash and Fasika Negash. Her parents named her “Hasiet,” which means “Joy,” as they had prayed for four years for a child. Growing up with her younger brother Hosanna, Hasiet had a wonderful childhood filled with laughter and a strong family bond.
Hasiet was an honor student throughout her school years and was known for being a great listener, attentive, outspoken, and respectful. She was also a great citizen who engaged in extracurricular activities to serve her fellow students and the community.
Hasiet’s passion was to help needy children, and she dedicated her life to showing them unconditional love and providing them with emotional, spiritual, and financial assistance. She believed that every child deserved a chance to thrive and reach their full potential.
During a mission trip to rural India, Hasiet found her purpose in life – to help vulnerable children. She spent her final days on earth washing their feet and sharing the love of Christ with them.
In honor of Hasiet’s life and vision, Hasiet’s Vision International was founded to continue her work of helping children in impoverished regions of the world. Hasiet’s story has impacted many people and has become a source of courage, freedom, and renewed vision.
