Helping Hands in Times of Crisis



Life in Africa is full of many challenges. Many times these challenges come up without warning. Storms destroy stick huts, floods destroy crops, and things happen without warning. We have been incredibly blessed to have partners who have come onboard to support the needy in times of crisis. Currently we are excited as we are just overcoming a time of incredible food shortage and have no pressing crisis at this moment.

Praise Reports

What a great year this year has been for us. When it comes to times of crisis we have seen God do amazing things. We have been able to build 3 orphan and widow homes. We have fixed the roof of a home that was blown off in a storm and more recently we have fed hundreds of people.




Do to flooding last year most people did not recieve the crop that they so desperately needed. Due to this huge food shortage we decided to initiate a work for food program in faith, knowing that God would provide. We were not wrong. God brought some incredible sponsors to us and we were able to run our work for food project for three months. Each day over 200 people showed up to receive food with only 50 being given work each day. In this way we were able to give work to each person at least once a week where they would then recieve food to last them till the week. God is good. Thanks to all those who were obedient to His call in their lives we were able to impact our area for God in incredible ways this year.
