5 years gone, wow!!!
We have been to Ajegunle,Amukoko, Makoko, Ilaje-Bariga providing supplies for thousands of people and ministering the essence of Christ and life to them.
See the interesting story of how it all began here
On this 5th outreach, we are going to Isokan Ifesowapo Community in Mile 12, Lagos
💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
Ifesowapo was formely known as part of a popular slum called Alaba in Mile 12. They carved their niche as an independent community lately.
Our JTOW director, Miracle Obiorah and representative Mercy Enamidue were at Ifesowapo recently. They were not allowed to take pictures and so we sadly cannot give you a graphical representation of the community at this time.
However, we have the gist of the area as described by Eric Dumo on punch.
"It is a conglomeration of sinking and elevated structures constructed with wood and rusty roofing sheets, Alaba – with a bulging population of over 3000 residents – is where deprivation meets chequered opportunities.
Floored by a mixture of refuse and marshy mud, the area is home to dozens of low income earning families especially women – old and young – seeking financial liberation.
The neighbourhood also houses an army of youths and little children whose future grows in uncertainty by the minute as a result of the high wave of crime in the vicinity. Day or night, sun or rain – the area never sleeps.
Besides contending with a host of diseases as a result of the filthy nature of the environment, the foul smell oozing out of the mosquito-infested swamp in the area further compounds the pains of many dwellers."
How we choose our outreach destinations aka OUR FAVOURITE PLACES
-----------------------------------
 |
| JTOW OUTREACH 2018 LOCATION, ILAJE BARIGA, LAGOS |
We love to go wherever there is a need for physical supplies and the love of Christ, particularly communities or nations with
•Poor living condition
• High mortality rate
•Poor access to Education
•Low believing or non-Christian population
•Unreached
Considering the poor living condition of the people, slum environment and a higher number of residents being non-christians, Ifesowapo community is clearly one of our favourite places.
