ABANA B'UMWAMI CHILDREN

Committed Missions, in coordination with CCLH and Pastor Francis’ church in Rwanda have begun a child sponsorship program in Rwanda where we are having an opportunity to invest in the future generations being raised up and taught in the ways of the Lord.

There are currently 197 children being sponsored through Committed Missions and the program continues to grow ministering to many more.

Abana B'umwami was established in 2005 years ago at Christ Gospel Fellowship Church in Kigali through Pastor Francis, to provide the children in the surrounding community with spiritual and physical growth, and a chance to receive an education they wouldn’t otherwise be able to afford. 

Through a monthly sponsorship commitment, participants are providing for these children the following:
     ~ Tuition, school supplies, and other necessities.
     ~ Christ Gospel Fellowship Church nurtures the child's spiritual growth through Sunday school, Saturday fellowship, and mentorship.
     ~ Families develop a personal relationship with the children through prayer and communication.
 

The children qualifying for participation in the Abana B'umwami Children foundation include the following:
     ~ Children orphaned by genocide, AIDS, or natural death;
     ~ Children whose parents are infected with HIV/AIDS;
     ~ Children living in severe poverty and/or victims of domestic violence.

The Vision of Pastor Francis for these children is based on the command of Jesus to let the little children come to Him. Foundation Abana Bumwami exists to provide holistic support to the orphaned and marginalized children of Rwanda, and to provide them with
spiritual, social, mental, emotional, and material support, so that they can:
     ~ Experience a loving relationship with the Lord Jesus
     ~ Become responsible adults
     ~ Become servant leaders of today and tomorrow
