 6  years gone, wow!!! With your help, We have been to 5 communities  Ajegunle , Amukoko ,   Makoko ,  Ilaje-Bariga  ,  Ifesowapo mile 12 , providing supplies for 4,500 people and ministering the essence of Christ and life to them. See the  interesting story  of how it all began  here On this 6th outreach, we are going to  Ilaje Otumara Community in Ebute-metta, Lagos.  💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃 The riverine community established in 1930 is situated in the heart of Lagos and is very strategically positioned  close to Ikoyi, costain junction and the bridge connecting Lagos mainland to the island.  Joke Falaju of Sunday magazine  has this to say about Ilaje Otumara   The community is so filthy that a first time visitor cringes, while many safety and health experts that have visited it conclude that no decent human being should be staying there. But alas, for more than 89 years, hundreds of tho...

BECAUSE OF YOU

The year of Honor and Rewards, has been deeply fulfilling for us at the birthplace foundation and in the personal ministry of Anne because of the gift of YOU. Your financial gifts, enabled us host Eagle's Soar and Tamar's Pouch conferences in Lagos, Portharcourt and Obigbo respectively. We also hosted  JTOW outreach in one of the underprivileged communities in Lagos, as well as gave financial support to other ministries who were committed to God's agenda. Your intercessory commitment positioned  the birthplace foundation  as a center for God-encounters with men. Testimonies abound and we can't get over the joy of God's kindness. To our core team members and our priceless volunteers, your services enabled us effectively execute the 2019 mission successfully.

JTOW GOES TO IFESOWAPO, MILE 12

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...

JTOW GOES TO ILAJE COMMUNITY IN BARIGA, LAGOS

And this year(2018), we are going to Ilaje-Bariga community in Lagos💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃 The photos below were taken by our Program director Miracle Obiorah who recently visited the location. "Located in Bariga Local Government Area, it is not only one of the worst settlements in the megacity; it is also one of the most crowded.  Conservatively, it is estimated that over 250,000 people live in Ilaje. But that’s not the real issue. The real issue is no fewer than 10 people live in some of the one-room shanties erected on top of the lagoon." Says Yusuf a reporter at nextedition.com.ng --------------------------------------- How we choose our outreach destinations aka OUR FAVOURITE PLACES ----------------------------------- 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/Christian populati...

I'M GRATEFUL TO YOU!!!

When 2017 made a grand entrance, my heart was confident in the Lord to make it a year of satisfaction for me and for you as He promised. Then came Save A Girl Child Outreach in January, when together, we led 69 girls to Jesus Christ , freely distributed 247 copies of the book TAMAR to the girls, educated and counseled them over sexual abuse. March made a merry host to Eagle's Soar Conference during which you gave your resources, attended and together we led 9 youths to Jesus Christ and  exposed 100 young people to a life changing encounter with the Holyghost. July made a jolly introduction to Tamar's Pouch Conference , during which  50 young women were encouraged, strengthened and inspired to live fulfilled lives,  knowing that God was obsessed with them. And then the memorable  JTOW outreach at Makoko. Together , we dewormed 250 children and ministered to well over 1000 people via the truth of the love of Jesus Christ , 25 sacks...

JTOW GOES TO MAKOKO

ANNE ATULAEGWU SURVEYING MAKOKO So I was at a wonderful place this weekend in preparation for  #JTOW2017 outreach . I heard about the place and went to see for myself. I was amazed! For those who don't know, Makoko is a small neighbourhood across the 3rd Mainland Bridge located on the coast of mainland Lagos. A third of the community is built on stilts along the lagoon and the rest is on the land. The waterfront part of the community is largely harboured by the Egun people who migrated from Badagary and Republic of Benin (wikipedia). Makoko community courtesy of Wikipedia This is the chosen community for  JTOW outreach  scheduled for Saturday, December 9th . We would be taking supplies (Educational materials, clothes and shoes) as well as LIFE (Christ) to them. I'll love that you empower us to go by donating Educational materials: Exercise books. Text books, pens and pencils, rulers sharpeners, erasers etc Gently worn (washed and wear ready ) or ...

APOSTLE PAUL MIXTAPE WITH OVA SKILLZ (Young & Relevant Series)

Spoken word! That talk that’s a fine mix of rhythm and rhymes, poetry, energy, and dramatic gestures, combined to pass a message. I love spoken word! I hope you do too. So recently, there has been this twist to serving people the gospel on a golden spoken word tray. It’s called Gospel Rap. While rap has been around since 19-memorial-oh-oh, using rap as a tool to pass on the message of Christ and the Cross has only recently started becoming popular and acceptable. In the past, people would condemn gospel rap artist saying they were copying the world and bringing the unholy into the holy place.  Today, the earth is apparently getting filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters covers the seas (Habakkuk 2:14) and rap is one of those channels through which the glory of the Lord is covering the earth. Religion made us think all the fine things were for and of the world. But TRUTH in JESUS makes us see that all things were made for ...
