Masana

We’re transforming the Masana office into a sewing room! 7 former street boys have completed a skills training course in sewing and will begin the practicum part of their training. Join us in praying that this new skill will lead to income for these teens and their families!

Friday we celebrated the reintegration of 4 former street boys back with their families after 3 months in our transitional home. Pray for these families as the boys settle back into their communities.

Today was Dia dos Trabalhadores in Mozambique…. literally translated to Day of the Worker. Labor Day. It’s a day for workers in any and every sector to be recognized for their hard work. Masana celebrated our staff with a lunch for them and their families! We are grateful for the team God has given us to be a part of reaching street boys and rebuilding families!!

Three years ago, we encountered a young boy living on the streets of Maputo with his mother, who was struggling with mental health issues. The best solution we found for him was to stay at a Christian children’s center while his mom tried to get her health issues under control. This week, our team got to be a part of seeing this young boy reunited with his now healthy mom!!! We praise God for the transformation in her life and continue to pray that God will now restore their family!!

The boys at the Masana transitional home have begun planting seeds in the garden. Soon they will reap a harvest and have fresh vegetables to share with their families.

Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly and whoever sows generously will also read generously. 2 Corinthians 9:6

This mornings street visits with the Masana team. Pray for these boys to make the choice to leave behind the street life and be reunited with their families!
