Alfred-waiting for mum who will never return.

PLEASE READ THIS.

I am an Irish born Missionary and photographer. My passion in life is to help as many children living in extreme poverty in remote and rural villages of Africa and India. My compassion and inspiration is from Gods great love for the suffering children.

Taken in Tunga/Zuga village, Kebbe State, Remote Nigeria.

As I was looking through some photographs stored on my Camera storage card, I came across Alfred, and It brought me back to the time I met thisboy. His Father and Mother were killed in a road accident, the precious day. His grandfather took Alfred to his little hut and there we found him.

My passion and inspiration to help these precious people is from a heart of love and Gods commission to go and help those poor who suffer alone and in silence.

This was their only child, and this is rare in African Culture. There are so many like Alfred, and I really mean many. The carers struggle to feed them, and the survival rate of Orphans are very low. There are no orphanages in Tunga/Zuga or indeed in The Kebbe state, except one small run down orphanage.

I believe it is better to equip and help the existing carers to look after these children, where possible. But in saying that we do need to bud and run an orphanage where the carers are not capable of caring for them. Please Pray that God will bless us in helping many. We need your Prayers and finance to do this. Ask God how you can help, and you will not only be blessed, but be a blessing to Alfred and many like him.

Psalms 41:1-3 You, LORD God, bless everyone who cares for the poor. You rescue those people in times of trouble. (2) You protect them and keep them alive. You make them happy here in this land, and you don’t hand them over to their enemies. (3) You always heal them and restore their strength when they are sick.
