Our Calling

Short History of the
Ministry and Calling

Experiencing Faith and Hope Ministries International (EFHMI) was founded by Ismaël and Emmania Dora, a Haitian couple called by God to serve among Haitians across the Caribbean.

After relocating to Atlanta, Georgia, in 2010, the Doras pursued both academic and spiritual preparation for ministry. Dr. Ismaël Dora earned advanced theological degrees, culminating in a Ph.D. in Hebrew and Old Testament from Clarks Summit University.

In 2020, the couple was officially commissioned by ABWE/Live Global to reach Haitians in the Caribbean with the gospel of Christ through EFHMI.

Emmania, a trained dentist, holds a Master’s degree in Public Health from Liberty University, sharing a passion for holistic ministry.
