Meet Emmanuel, A Child from the JoshKrisDan Home!

Emmanuel was abandoned by his mother and left at his grandmother’s house at 2 months of age. The grandmother who was also pregnant with child was not able financially to care for two babies. A social worker intervened and supported Emmanuel by providing food but with time the grandmother delivered and was diverting the food to her own baby. The social worker later took Emmanuel to an orphanage but they only took in children less than two years of age. Emmanuel had attained the age of two and therefore had to be transferred to another orphanage. With the help of the social worker and social welfare department, Emmanuel joined the HFO family on the 14th of January, 2003.

He’s a class five pupil of Old Ningo Presby School in interests in reading, mathematics and writing. He’s very studious and polite in speech. He loves smiling and is pleasant with visitors and family. He has improved in mannerism and behavior and aims at becoming a pastor in future.

Now that our summer trip is completed, make sure that you sign up for our mailing list to continue to receive updates on the JoshKrisDan Home, as well as the other homes throughout the world where Hearts of the Father Outreach cares for children.
