With the population of the world nearing 7 Billion people. It is estimated that over 20,000 homeless children die every day in this world. What are we doing to help stop this horrible fait??
In Luke 12:48 Jesus said "for unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required." We have been given so much here in America by God's grace and it is clear that God will require much of us...... We must reach those in need....................
Each year homeless children are abducted by pirates that sail the Indian Ocean. These children are taken and sold as slaves in parts of eastern Africa, Middle East, India and other areas. It brakes my heart that so many children around the world are suffering all because they are orphans.
This is Tantely, he is 18 years old. We use to help him in Antsirabe. Please pray he will see his need for Christ.
Erivien is 7 years old and is very quiet. His birthday is January 5 2002
Fitiavana is 15 years old and a real blessing to us. He is the sweetest young man and loves to learn. He has already gotten saved and born again and loves to read his Bible. Fi told us that God has also called him to preach and he spend alot of time out with Lucien street preaching and witnessing. He is also a big help with the other children. His birthday is April 7 1994
Nirina is 9 years old and is very fun loving. She like to play around and be silly. She is in the 1st grade because she never had the chance to go to school. We did not have any papers to show us her birthday so we gave her one on October 27.
Chantal and her brother Dinot were in our orphanage for 7 months. We took them to the country side one day to visit their distant relatives in a village. Sadly, they were taken from us by the people in the village and held captive. We could do nothing for fear of being attacked. The government would not help us because we are white foreigners and the government always takes the side of the Malagasy people. We learned that Chantal and Dinot are being used as slaves and are not being allowed to go to school. Please pray as we are still trying to get them back.
As we have moved to another city in northern Madagascar named Mahajanga, we were able to bring some of our orphan children with us. They are pictured below and we thank God for them. Sadly, we lost several of the children due to poor government laws and the childrens families telling lies about us. The good thing is that while we had the children they heard the gospel and truth about salvation many times. We are promised in Proverbs 22:6 that by training up a child in the right way, when they are old they will not forget what they had learned.
We thank God for the children below that we have here in our home and we pray they will be born again as we continue to show them their need for Christ. Please help us to pray for them for their health, safety and salvation.
If you would like to sponsor one of the children, please email us and let us know. Thank you and God bless

This is Fanja and her twin girls Pascalyn and Packalet . We met Fanja at the government building one day after she ran with her girls because there is a custom in Madagascar that one of the twins must die. Most Malagasy people believe the second child that comes out is actually a demon and must be killed. We praise God that Fanja came to our home and has been born again, Amen
