So who do we help?
We help the poorest of the poor in the World’s poorest nation – Sierra Leone (as verified by the United Nations - UN).
The average age of death throughout the whole world (ie. the Mortality Rate) is 48 years; in Sierra Leone it is just 34 years of age! (as verified by the UN). We did not realise that this forgotten country has just come out of a (not very) Civil War and there are literally thousands of orphaned children who need someone to look after them, clothe, shelter, protect, nurture and feed them.
The Sierra Leone Government have no active plans for these children. There is no social service, social welfare, sanitation, clean fresh water, electricity, food, medical help, schooling or any other basic need which is being provided by the State; and no good roads, railway or other form of reliable, usable working transport.

healthcare programme. |
How do we know all of this?
We checked the UN internet sites and then paid for ourselves to visit the country.
In one week we have seen, spoken with, touched and held 1000 plus orphaned children aged 2–15 yrs.
Many of the children had never seen a white person before. Some babies actually screamed and got very upset when they saw us!
Please click here for the and that was taken on our visit. The photo of the girl in green is not an orphan (Picture 2.1 left). She was rescued from her parents who had offered her up as a human sacrifice! Yes, these things really do still go on. |
Picture 2.2: Sewage and rubbish
in streets. |
The photo with the sewage and rubbish in the streets(Picture 2.1 left) was the least revolting from a series of pictures we took. In towns people use the open sewers to relieve themselves. In the countryside they do all their ablutions in the local streams. These are the same streams they get their drinking and cooking water – you work it out!
We have personally witnessed all of this and much more…….

At the moment our emphasis is on caring and mentoring for those who need more help including orphans, abandoned babies by prostitues, children suffering from HIV and AIDS, widows and the elderly. through our ministry we create an atmosphere of deliverance through the holy spirit to deliver the insane and those suffering from unexplained illnesses.

In Sierre Leone we are currently looking after 808 children, most of them orphans, some are disabled and some are destitute. We provide shelter, education and healthcare for them. We have aquired 114 acres of land in the district of Moyamba in the South of Sierra Leone to build a child welfare centre which will comprise of a nursery, primary, and secondary school, vocational training centre and recreational facilities. And have recently acquired five acres in the outcasts of Freetown area of Grafton.
