Our aged-out orphans were scheduled to be transported to their new home. By the Lord's intervention the plans were changed. Two attacks occurred in that time frame and 74 Christians were killed. Many orphans now need a home. We have plans to make advances at the orphanage.

Chairman's Report for April 14, 2023
Home found for seven aged-out orphans, but there will be eleven more soon! / Boys’ building at orphanage has hot water for showers! / Return of the farm? / Nigerian children from a “Muslim background” / Entire families in Iraq! / Final update on the 2023 supporter poll: Yes for Nigeria, maybe for Capitol Hill

"Aged Out" Orphans
As orphans turn 18 where do they go? That has been a compelling question, and now our prayers have been answered. We just can’t turn 18-year-olds with no real job training out onto the streets. They had no families to support them and no source of income while they were in the orphanage.
