The Andrews are involved with the development of the Village of Hope orphan home site in Lilongwe, Malawi. Clarence (JR) is the Project Manager for this construction project as well overseeing other construction of churches, etc in the area. Ivy assists with Childcare Plus.
When the Village of Hope project is fully developed it will have twelve orphan homes with twelve children and a house mother per home. There is also a Secondary (High) School in operation and continuing to be developed on this site as well.
The Primary School is in full operation at another site nearby. This new site also has the new national offices for the Pentecostal Assemblies of Malawi with future plans for a Bible College facility, medical clinic and staff housing.
Because of the HIV/AIDS situation in this area of Africa, Malawi has about 900,000 orphaned children out of a total national population of about 11,000,000. That means about one in every twelve people living in Malawi is an orphaned child. This Village of Hope project is the third such project undertaken by the PAOC for this Southern African region.
The Andrews are a vital part of PAOC ministry to this nation.
- For continued funding for the building and operation of this facility.
- For wisdom in choosing who we will "pick up" and who we will have to leave behind in bringing children into the Village of Hope program.
- For Malawi itself, that God will move in supernatural power on the national church to use it the way He intends to reach this nation.
