The Lost Child
Three 8x10 matted pieces
Profits from the sale of “The Lost Child” will be donated to HOPE HOUSE
Rev. Israel NDOUNGOU-NDOUNGOU, Pastor of the Christian Missionary and Alliance Church of Gabon for 19 years started HOPE HOUSE in December, 2004.
Reverend Israel has been sensitive to the vulnerable children situation in Gabon for several years. His interest stems from traumatizing experiences he lived as a child.
Some 80% of the population of Gabon lives below the poverty level. It is estimated that AIDS affects over 8% of the population ( pop. is est1.5 million). Children are the first victims with an estimated 12,000 orphans.
HOPE HOUSE currently provides care for (21) children whose ages range from three (3) to sixteen (16). HOPE HOUSE provides their accommodation, their clothing, their health, their food, their education, and shares the love of Christ with them. All this takes place in a family climate.
By the way currently ( as of July 09) the Israel’s receive no organized assistance with the expense; things are in the works to change this hopefully, but, progress as you can imagine can be agonizingly slow. Rev. Israel with his wife Nathalie and their two children make their home at HOPE HOUSE and they are the primary support for HOPE HOUSE. They are doing everything they can to make people aware of the conditions under which many children in Gabon live, and to generate interest in and support for those of Hope House centre.
I am not an authorized fund raiser for either the C&MA or Hope House. I have been there and met the children and the Israels, so, for me, this is an affair of the heart. For further information re HOPE HOUSE please give me a call or an E mail and I will direct your questions to my contacts in Gabon or you can contact the C&MA on line at cmalliance.org. These few words don’t even come close to telling the story they will just whet your appetite. Please do not send any contributions to me! |
