Miles In Missions

Several months ago our team started praying for a senior member of Egbe to join our C.A.R.E. Africa team. We love our young vibrant team but knew we needed some wisdom and age on our team. Almost all of our 35 orphans live with caretakers that our twice our age. They are all respectful and grateful for our help but we wanted someone that could really understand them. We wanted someone their age that could truly disciple and mentor them. After several weeks of prayer Tofunmi asked if she could bring someone for us to meet that might fit our criteria. When Mommy Balogun walked in the door, I laughed. We already new each other, we were Tolusha sisters. Tolusha was a class I attended for about a year when I first got here. It was immediate confirmation for me that she was the one God wanted for our caretaker manager.

I am excited to introduce you to Mommy Balogun. She has been with us for over two months now. She has started a compulsory weekly caretaker meeting where she educates all the caretakers on family preservation and God’s word. We have seen a huge improvement in our caretakers attitudes and communication with C.A.R.E. Africa. Thank you Lord for adding another Egbe angel to our team!
