“The church, the instrument of God’s word”

Last Sunday we saw many churches celebrating the triumphant entry of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem. It is always a joy to see Christians all over the world commemorating Easter and in particular seeing fellow believers here in Zambia joining others as they carried palm branches and led processions to their respective sanctuaries. Palm Sunday has [...]

Taking time to listen, and listen well!!

Sometimes, as adults we tend not to pay special attention to what the kids are saying. These last few days I have learnt a lot about the beauty of listening to kids tell their tales. Just like Jesus once cautioned the adults of his time to let the little ones come closer to him and [...]

Let’s keep them in school

The greatest gift we can ever give to these kids as they grow up is an education. This is why I thank God for the ministry of the local church for championing the cause of the growing numbers of orphans in Africa. The church has risen to the challenge and given ear to the cries [...]

Our Motivation…”The Love of God”

It’s the love of God that motivates us to continue with what He has honoured us to be part of. Helping orphans continue with an education and allowing their dreams to continue has always been an honour and a joy for me and the Forgotten Voices family. Witnessing children like Kasuluba get distinctions and merits [...]

Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year! The year 2012 is gone, we welcome the year 2013 with full of joy and hope! I just want to appreciate and thank all those that have been supporting the orphans through the ministry of the local church here in Africa. I believe that this has always been a fulfillment of God’s [...]

“…pure religion…”

When John lost his father, all hope for school was shattered. He had only two years more to write his O’ Levels and finish his secondary education. He had no choice but to eventually stop attending classes as not only couldn’t he afford to pay his school fees, but also needed to take care of [...]

Thank you and may God bless you!!

“Thank you and may God bless you!”, were the words that came from Mark as he handed his pastor the letter and results of his grade 12 examinations. Life hasn’t always been easy for Mark since his father passed away. At one stage he had lost hope of ever going back to school and have [...]

Pray…”With God, all things are possible”

It’s almost a week gone in the new and last term of the year in most Zambian schools. Gradually, but surely a number of the children we love to help are busy gearing up for their last term before they move on to the next grade. We want you to join in supporting them continue [...]

“Kids helping kids fix broken hearts”

A couple of weeks ago I was in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, visiting partners and their ministry. It was a wonderful time of learning and reflecting on how over the years Forgotten Voices has grown to be part of the ministry life of the  local churches around southern Africa. I was touched by the Lord’s grace and [...]

Restoring dignity in the lives of widows and orphans

Barely two months after her husband died, Elizabeth, a mother of four, did not want to let her beloved’s death make her slip into depression. She decided to keep busy by joining the New Life Christian Center’s Widows Tailoring project she came to learn of through a friend. She did her six months training and [...]
