We take care of the elderly as they finish out their years and ensure that those years are spent with dignity. We try to ensure that there is no fear that tomorrow will bring starvation for them and for the children they take care of.
We want to ensure that they do not feel abandoned and are left to go out into the bush and die because no-one cares for them. God cares and because He does He is raising up people who do.
To disciple and to teach prayer and intercession so that they can be effective warriors and change the state of their surroundings, change the state of their children and grandchildren and change the state of their nation. To be effective witnesses to their neighbors and to the village people that collect water from the wells nearby. They can give the living water as their neighbors fill their buckets. Recently there has been a plague of desert locusts which have decimated crops throughout Central Africa. These elderly went to prayer and prayed up a hedge of protection around the nation. The locusts came as close a ten miles to the border with Mozambique and no further.
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” (2 Chron 7:14)
