Relief Update—Feeding Program

Mary, a social worker, holding Korpu
Because of your support, we are able to feed over 100 children in four orphanage homes every week. We provide most ingredients for a typical Liberian meal—which usually consists of a bowl of rice with some type of soup topping—by delivering rice, bulgarwheat, beans, milk and palm oil. We then require the orphanage directors to supplement the children’s diets with things like greens, meat and fruit. It is important that the children have food, but it’s more important that they have the proper vitamins and minerals so they will grow and stay healthy.

The four homes currently participating in our feeding program are: Childcare Foundation (24 children), Frances Gaskins (33 children), Gold Child (24 children) and Garmai’s (30 children). Please keep these four homes in your prayers; we hope to see them all self-sufficient in the very near future. Pray that God would continue to provide support for the relief program—the more support the program has, the more homes we are able to feed. If you would like to donate towards the relief program, please designate your donation for ‘relief’.
