NIGERIA OUTREACH

The Christians in Nigeria face worse persecution than anywhere else in the world! Muslim Fulani Herdsmen and the Boko Haram have murdered entire church congregations and attacked and burned villages across southern Nigeria. Many Christian children are left orphaned because one or both of their parents were victims of these attacks.

The Religious Freedom Coalition has committed to partner with orphanages in Nigeria to provide a safe, healthy environment to show the love of Jesus to these children. In the past several years, the Religious Freedom Coalition has provided a new water system to one of these orphanages which included a new well, flushable toilets, a water tower, and a fully functioning farm

In August of 2021, Muslim Fulani Herdsmen attacked our orphanage in Miango, Nigeria and burned it to the ground. All of the children were able to escape but the home we built for them was left destroyed. The children were moved to a temporary facility as the search began to find them a new home.

In early 2022 the Lord provided new land for the orphanage in Jos, Nigeria. Thanks to the generosity of Religious Freedom Coalition supporters, the land was purchased and renovated to fit the needs of the orphanage. Children were able to move into their new home in October 2022. This new space has provided a sense of security for the children after everything was taken from them after the attack. We are working diligently to continue updating and growing the facility to further meet their needs!

The Christmas for Refugees program has also been hosting Christmas events at the orphanage every year since 2017. During this event, children participate in a Bible recitation competition, games, song, and receive a hot meal and a pair of shoes. Children look forward to this event every year as a time of fun and joy.

In 2021 the Religious Freedom Coalition partnered with the TIV Tribe to build a classroom building for children living at an IDP camp in Benue State. Christian-based curriculum, backpacks, and desks were also provided.

Please pray for the orphaned Christian children of Nigeria.

Deliver those who are drawn toward death, and hold back those stumbling to the slaughter. Prov 24:11
