Changing One Life at a Time
"I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you." John 14:18
 | ||||||
The foundation of our orphanage ministry is based upon the work of George Muller--who built and ran orphanages in the 19th century--depending upon God alone, to supply all of their needs. At the time of his death in 1898, he had obtained more from God than anyone else who ever lived-- the equivalent today of an astounding 180 million dollars!$2.00 USD
In Sub-Saharan Africa 70% of the people live on less than $2.00 a day.

The ministry of Orphanages for Africa
Current ministry
OFA shipped almost 500 pounds of food, clothing, medicine, blankets and other supplies to our African partners in 2006.
OFA engages in micro-enterprise partnerships to assist Africans in helping orphans. We strive to offer a hand-up, rather than a handout. Above OFA helped to fund a new computer skills training class in Uganda.
