Last year while visiting Kitwe Central Assembly of God, I shared a message of Hope. This theme of Hope was tied to my experience with our daughter, and finally to the plight of Orphans.
Little did I know that that church had formed a committee to establish a way the church could somehow serve the community. After hearing our message of Hope, the committee at Kitwe Central was stirred to serve Orphans. In this instance they went out and took ten girls off of the street and placed them in a home, Hope for the City Orphanage.
We had the honor of visiting Hope for the City Orphanage. What makes this home beautiful is the girls that now live there. There are six of the ten girls who remain, the other four ran away back to the streets, and on of the six girls had a baby recently and her name is Hope.
The now seven girls in total are cared for by one women. They live in a two bedroom house in what we would call the slum. They have no stove in which to cook on, nor a refrigerator to store food. They only use a hot plate in which to cook their meals. There is no indoor toilet. For some reason this was a very humbling experience.
We would hope to raise funds for a stove and refrigerator for the Orphanage, the only quote we have received so far is for $800. This would be for new appliances. If you’d like to help you may contact us at (303) 840-1123 or make a donation through our website at worldorphanrelief.org.
