In October of 2007 I was asked to serve on the board of trustees for Noah's Ark Orphan Care in Blantyre, Malawi, Africa. NAOC is a CBO (Community Based Organization) in Chirimba Township.
I had the opportunity to visit there with my husband for a month in September 2002. After seeing the children's desperate needs, I wanted to do all I could to help.
Praying that you will too!
Well, now thanks to Madonna, most people at least know it's in Africa! See Del.icio.us link below
Nancy A. Sisco is an ordained pastor in Flint, Michigan and had opportunity to visit South Africa, and Malawi for a short term mission program in 1995. Malawi, "The Warm Heart of Africa", made a fast and deep impression on her.Breakfast on the Veranda...yummy nsima!

You know, I think I'll have to start another Lens for the continuing story of NAOC. The building project is well under way, there's lots of photos to post, blogs to link to, and some exciting NEW news. See what I mean?? :-)
Please stay tuned for more!!
Just like getting emails from Steve... quite funny, but a very realistic look at life in Kenya (could be Malawi). He's given kids food, education, hope, and a chance for a future. May God bless his efforts & continue to keep them all safe at RVA.

Bruce is a remarkable guy, humble in person but mightily used of God. Yes... we got to meet up with this sweet gentleman a few times. His life didn't continue in the way he expected (Hollywood), but he's "excited beyond excited" about the direction where God is leading him. He ministers God's love and newness of life all around the world, especially in South Africa. He's also very busy getting "The Gospel Of John" film ready to roll! Check it out.

Thanks for sharing this lens with us... if there is anthing that touches my heart deeply it is orphans. My husband was orphaned at age 6 and went to live with his uncle and aunt. He has been following the Chapman story on Maria Sue Chapman, and I feel as though what has happened to them has happened to me. Posted September 02, 2008 |
