Dear friends,
| t is extremely unusual for an orphan, who lost both of his parents and had no relatives to care for him, to get his master’s degree and become a young executive director leading a large ministry in Malawi that serves homeless children, orphans, and local village children. In my life, I have encountered lovely people whose names have been etched into my heart. They have offered me love, patience, guidance and support like a parent along the way. I couldn't be here today sharing all of this with you, friends, if it weren’t for you. I am forever grateful for what God has done through all your support. |
In the past year, I established an orphanage for girls that has now grown to have 13 girls living in the best possible condition, attending school, receiving meals, being mentored, and knowing God. The beautiful smiles and the effort they demonstrate in education have been inspiring. In addition, I am aware of what Jesus Christ has done to give them a safe place in which to grow in his likeness by giving them this house. I call it the “House of the Lord.” All of this has been accomplished because of your support, and I pray that God continues to bless you as He has blessed us.
| MEET TASMIA, 11 YEARS OLD |
| Homeless girls face several challenges every day, including rape, abuse, and lack of shelter, food, and protection. Imagine an 11-year-old girl who was without a home due to being an orphan. After losing both of her parents at a young age, Tasmia was abandoned by her relatives. She eventually lived with her older sister, who married at 17, leaving Tasmia homeless. – without shelter, food, or education. This ministry is so important here in Malawi since we are the only organization that can provide shelter and education to homeless children and provide them with the greatest gift of all, the gift of God. |
Tasmia before coming to the orphanage.
After hearing her story a few months ago, I decided to bring her to the girls' orphanage. Her welcome by the girls in our safe home has led to a happy life. As a smart girl, she started school in grade 5 and will enter grade 6 in September. I am grateful for her life and for her being a part of this family. One thing she is grateful for is the home, food, loving family, and the education she is being provided now. As a child, she enjoys studying English as her subject, she hopes to become like Uncle Hamilton (who is Myself) she loves seeing how I love them, and when she grows up she wants to take care of others, too. She enjoys reading, playing soccer and talking with God.
