Sister Saidi and three of the children we help
The reason I live and my passion is to bring Love and help to these precious children in remote and ruarl villages in Africa/India.
This is Sister Saidi, Founder of Salama Health ministries in Nigeria. She is a long time friend and our Charity has been in partnership with them since 2006.
We have an office at their mission centre. There are three children from Ungwa/fada village in Rural Nigeria, with rickets. In this small village there are 15 children with bowed and twisted limbs. They walk in extreme pain and one little girl is now almost crippled.
Rickets is mainly caused by lack of Vitamin [D]. because of little and poor quality food, Malnutrition is also rampant here, Their immune systems are very low. This is why we are working in this village. Multi Vitamins are urgently needed here. We do supply some, but do not have the money to supply to the whole village. I am returning on 15th Nov-16 Th Dec to this and many other villages.
Please pray for me and the mission. Please visit our Charity website today and make a donation towards these Multivitamins and other needed materials. No matter how little it is it will be a blessing to these children.

Bless these precious children! Thank you for answering their call for help.
TREVOR IRWIN replied
Thank you pat. Its a mission where Gods love is the foundation and his heart of compassion and care is stretched forth to help these precious little ones. I and the mission team could not do what we do, with so little finance, if it was not God who strengthens us and builds an army of precious friends like you, who are and encourage us. Thank you so much.
Psalms 41:1-3 You, LORD God, bless everyone who cares for the poor, and 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.

a painful image to see.
TREVOR IRWIN replied
It is painful trenchtownrock to see. But When I look back over the past 3 years in particular, I am so encouraged to see what we have done to help these little ones. The painful thing for me and all the Mission staff is that there are many more we cannot help at the moment. But many more here on RB are now making donations via our website and others buy cards, Calendars and even large prints.
This has increased over the past year. So we are helping more. Each Financial seed sown by precious friends here really does make a big difference to these children. Every single cent donated and all proceeds from sale of art goes direct to help. nether I or any staff and volunteers are salaried and we cover our own expenses.
Those who cannot donate pray and this is so important as God really does see and hears their prayers and answers each prayer.
Others like you my dear friend send comments of greta encouragement and this is so precious. You are Blessed and a Blessing. Thank you.

ive faved this because I love their smile and it takes me away from their ricketts ;))
TREVOR IRWIN replied
Thank you so much Marie for your wonderful encouragement and favouring this. The story behind this image was as follows. This was my second time to come and stay in Ungwa/Fada village. all the children remembered me from the first visit.
Mary, the child on the left tried to say “I love you in” English, and instead she said, “Pastor, this is a spoon”. We all burst out laughing adn this was taken when we all stopped laughing. Sometimes its the little things that really help. We are caring for these three children. Mary, Anne and Princess. We are dedicated to helping all of the children here, and setting projects in place that will eradicate Rickets and Malnutrition for good.
Thank you so much for your comments and their smiles are so catching.

Smiling through such hardship…...........
TREVOR IRWIN replied
My dear friend, So many hurting in the villages and indeed around the world. many in extreme pain and poverty. But when You can make them smile or Laugh, they for a brief moment forget their sorrows. it is my passion and calling in life through God grace and empowerment to share the Good news of the Lord. Also to meet their needs and prolong their laughter and happiness. I get blessed each time you comment. You have a deep love and passion for those in extreme need. God sees this and he is moved. Bless you my friend.
