Maoni Orphanage

"The AIDs Pandemic has left millions of children orphaned in sub-Saharan Africa, there are hundreds of thousands in Malawi. We have learned that those hundreds of thousands have names and faces. We can not care for the hundreds of thousands but we can care for the ones our heavenly Father gives us. What fatherless children need is spiritual fathers and mothers and we have our heavenly father’s heart in us.  This is what the bible meant when it said “God puts the fatherless together in families”. Our call is to support orphanages and orphans being cared for in the communities by well wishers.

Our great joy is to support African nations, who have from the overflow of Christ’s love in them, have taken in orphans but need help to care for them. We have a special link with Maoni orphanage in Blantyre where we visit regularly to teach, love, hug and do practical things. Helping renovate the buildings, provide the necessities of lighting, food and also bring some fun with movies & games. Taking visiting teams to be with the children here and at other local orphanages has been such a blessing, they have renovated rooms, danced, built football pitches, playgrounds, painted nails, taught the bible, organised fun days and been big brother and sister. We are learning so much about our Father’s love and the spirit of adoption as we pour into them."
