America has always been seen as this beacon of light to the developing world. It’s the country young Mozambicans and other third world Africans dream of someday going to because it’s seen as the land of opportunity, the land of milk and honey. But what America has put on display for the world in recent years is far from being a beacon of light and hope.
Two and half years ago, our current Children’s Services Director, Tony Gonondo was scheduled to come to America with the rest of our Mozambican team. When he was denied a visa to go, he was incredibly disappointed, but what he didn’t know is that God had another plan…
When Jason was given the vision for this ministry, one of the first things God showed him in the dream was a farm complete with crops, chickens, and goats where, among other things, we could train farmers on more sustainable growing techniques that can help increase food security for their families.

Thanks to our financial partners, we have begun supporting the nursing school education of another student this year, Jossias Daniel!
This past November, Director of Medical Services, Vladimir John, and Director of Children’s Services Tony Gonondo, teamed up with another Christian ministry, Chosen Children, to conduct a health education and children’s ministry outreach in a remote village outside of Chimoio.

Death by easily treatable illnesses is a factor of life in most African countries. Mozambique is no exception. Reaching and attending to people in remote areas can be both challenging and exhausting. Recently, our medical team had such an opportunity to serve in a mighty way.
If given the choice to buy a beverage at a fast-food drive thru or a candy bar at a gas station or to instead use that same amount to help a family in desperate need, which would you choose? It doesn't take much to make a difference in someone's life. Take a look at how our team was able to help people this week with just $1.30 in the wake of Cyclone Eloise.
God searches the heart of a man for those willing to serve Him, even when it's scary; even when it doesn't make sense. It's in those moments of being yielded to His will that miracles happen. On Saturday, January 23rd, in the midst of a cyclone, one of our own had the chance to be that yielded vessel to help save a life.
