The poverty and hardship in Guinea-Bissau are the most severe I’ve witnessed in West Africa. Orphans are many, and it is often the poor who step up to care for them.

​

Take Pastor Daniel and his wife, Carolina, for example. Over the years, they have opened their home to numerous orphans while raising their own five children—with no electricity or running water, and they do their cooking outside. Yet amidst these challenges,, they not only nurture their family and these children but also oversee multiple churches and lead a ministry equipping youth with English, French, and Spanish.

 

By God’s grace, we are working to build and expand orphanages to provide these children with a place of refuge and hope. We need God’s faithful and generous people to sow abundantly into this nation to see this vision fulfilled.
