Bringing Hope to Orphans: How I Helped Gerry and Lawrence Stay in School


Every child deserves a chance to learn, to grow, and to dream. Yet, for many orphaned children, those chances are often stolen by poverty, hunger, and lack of support. Today, I want to share the stories of two amazing boys—Lawrence and Gerry—whose lives took a turn for the better through small acts of love and kindness.

Lawrence’s Story: Equipping a Dreamer

Lawrence, pictured above, is an orphan who had no access to even the most basic school materials. No books. No pens. No exercise books. Yet he showed up to school, determined to learn.

When I met him, I saw not just a child in need, but a young man full of hope and determination. I immediately provided him with the necessary stationeries and enrolled him in a lunch programme. Today, Lawrence walks to school with his head held high, prepared and confident. His joy and gratitude are infectious.

Gerry’s Story: Saving a Life, One Meal at a Time

Gerry back in class again

Gerry’s story is heartbreaking but also deeply inspiring. He had been sent home due to unpaid school fees and had no one to advocate for him. But what shook me most was learning that he had nearly lost his life due to severe ulcers caused by going without food. As an orphan, he couldn’t afford lunch and had gone hungry for far too long.

I stepped in to pay part of his school fees so he could return to class, and just like Lawrence, I enrolled him in the lunch programme. Seeing him healthy, back in uniform, and carrying his books was a reminder that sometimes, saving a life doesn’t require a miracle—just someone who cares.

Why I Do This

There are many more children like Gerry and Lawrence—bright, determined, but blocked by circumstances beyond their control. I believe it is our calling to stand in the gap for them. Whether it’s through school fees, stationeries, or a simple daily meal, every act of compassion plants a seed of hope.

If these stories have touched your heart and you’d like to help support more children like Lawrence and Gerry, I welcome your support. Together, we can give these children not just education, but a future.

“When you give to the least of these, you are giving to God Himself.” – Matthew 25:40

It has not been easy as famine has struck many families in the past one month.I have assisted some with what i had..I usually got a text or a visit from one on a weekly basis.As am called to help,i have been able to share with the affected and they have been grateful.

Lets pray for a time and a season of  harvest and restoration of all the gifts that the enemy has stolen.I pray for open doors for all us  who share with the least fortunate in our society.Many blessings and May God fill your pockets with more goodies.

May God Carry you so high so that you can continue to do the work .

TODAY’S SCRIPTURE:Saturday, May 31st 2025

“Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. “Quick, get up!” he said, and the chains fell off Peter’s wrists.”
Acts 12:7, NIV

TODAY’S WORD:
Suddenly

In the Scripture when God did something significant, many times it happened suddenly, such as when the angel appeared in Peter’s prison cell. There wasn’t any sign of things changing on that dark night, but suddenly everything changed. God can turn things around without any warning. He can increase you when you don’t see any sign of it happening. It was unexpected, out of the ordinary. You were just doing the right thing, not complaining about the difficulty, and then suddenly, your business took off, suddenly your health turned around. It may not be a gradual process. One touch of God’s favor will thrust you to a new level.

When you understand that God has some “suddenlies,” then even when it’s taking a long time, you’ll still have an expectancy knowing that any minute your suddenly could show up. One phone call, one good break, meeting one right person, and you’ll come out of the waiting period into your season of blessing.

PRAYER FOR TODAY:

“Father, thank You for Your unlimited favor and supply of everything I need in this life. Thank You for Your strength in difficult times and the expectancy that at any moment You can turn things around. Whether You do it gradually or suddenly, I will rest in You. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”

God can suddenly turn our lives around 💪
Blessed weekend 🙏🌼🍀🌼🎈💐🌞❤️🌹🙏
