Mahajanga
“But Jesus said, ‘Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.’” — Matthew 19:14 (NASB)
MISSION
In Mahajanga, on the northwest coast of Madagascar one of the poorest nations on the earth, we are currently setting up the second Iris base in Madagascar, we are excited about all the new families and children that will get to experience God’s unfailing love in this new region.
About Mahajanga
We are excited about all the plans the Father has been stirring in our hearts for this new base here in the north of Madagascar.
Everything will flow from the central point of our house for the abandoned, unwanted children and babies in Madagascar, where we will work with the government, house and look after all the different children that need a refuge. All the children we get the privilege of looking after will receive an education as well as being a part of Gods family here in Mahajanaga. We will open our doors each week to children in our community who are from poor families and give them a big bowl of delicious Malagasy food, while we sing songs to Jesus and tell them bible stories. They will come in hungry and go out with full tummies as well as getting to know more about beautiful Jesus too.

I thought about a bible, but they cost quite a bit here and so I thought about getting something...
A love gift of a home and shelter for a blind Woman who had been living out in the open
About six weeks ago we met a blind woman who was homeless, living out in the open in Mahajanga, Madagascar. We immediately felt such a surge of God's love rise up in our hearts for this woman. A wonderfully kind local Malagasy lady had a small piece of ground 4 meters x 3.6 meters that she wanted to...
