It is my joy again this glorious year to say thank you and well-done to all our donors, patrons and friends. 2006 was a year of the manifestation of God's goodness. We felt it in all areas of operations and in all the branches of the orphanage. In this vineyard we have tasted his goodness and we have seen that GOD is GOOD, so it's a good report all the way. God's grace has been abundant in our lives. We are eternally grateful to God and to you all. In 2007 we have high expectations of our God. It is our year of supernatural accomplishments. We will continue to press towards finishing the mandate. I especially thank Exxon Mobil for the donation of funds to build a clinic for our children. A few years ago 15 of our children caught measles at once and the need for a clinic became apparent. God has heard our prayers. This clinic will be handled by medical professionals, who we hope, will volunteer their services. We dream of a team that will be strong enough to tackle the menace of child abandonment and its resultant physical wounds and ailments. Sometime ago we received a baby that was bitten by soldier ants, another's throat was slashed, another older child had lacerations all over her small body. the clinic is needed. Children from the family relief center of the strong tower mission can also be given help. Thank God for foresight because the provision has been made for this kind of expansion in the constitution of the Strong Tower Mission. We thank her Excellency Mrs. Oluremi Tinubu whose tenure as the first lady of Lagos state made an historic impression on the little saints orphanage. We appreciate her deeply. Her sweet disposition endeared her to the missionaries, children and patrons of the orphanage. We welcome our current first lady Mrs. Abimbola Fashola. May our children also feel her tender touch. Wishing her a glorious and fulfilling reign. We also thank all sponsors for their consistency. Little Saints' Orphanage has become the exception in orphan welfare. The children's excellent appearance, well being and obvious progress have been a source of motivation for all our donors. With the grace of God we will continue to raise the standard. In June 2007, we dedicated the LITTLE SAINTS HOUSE in our newest branch at Abule Egba. It was already serving as our family relief center where the poor receive help regularly. It is also a center for women with unplanned pregnancies. In the second week of 2007, a baby boy was found abandoned in a polythene bag in the canal in Gbagada, Lagos. It is time to get to the root of the problem. As we work hand in hand with the ministry of women Affairs, the problem will be surmounted by the grace of God. We look forward to an historic collaboration with the ministry of women affairs. Baby Jesse is our miracle baby for 2007, Look at him and give glory to God. "Dry bones shall live again"!!! Looking at him inspires my faith in God. Surely God is the God of restoration. Patrons, continue to have faith in God that he will reward your labour of love. You are making positive impact on our little saints especially children like Jesse. My reward is yours and yours is mine, together we shall reap not only in the life to come but in this life. Let us continue to trust in the faithfulness of our God to release his blessings through us to a needy world. Little Saints day 2007 was a blast. Thanks to all our orphan-friendly artistes, schools, and corporate organizations who gave the children their best. May your source of wealth, strength and peace never diminish. "WEALTH, HONOR AND RICHES will forever be in your house". |

Dear friends, there is so much to share with you, but the pages will not contain our testimonies, please attend our JOYNIGHT every last Sunday of the month for full report of our activities. It is also an avenue to unwind after a long month of hard work. It is a great atmosphere to rejoice and give thanks for the priviledge to give. The hand that give stays on top so we must continue to thank God for giving us seed to sow.
Our special appreciation goes to Mutual Benefits Assurance Ltd for their commitment to sponsor the education of twenty little saints through nursery to university. God will continue to preserve and promote Mutual Benefits Assurance Ltd.
We look forward to more visitors this year. Please do visit.
LOTS & LOTS OF LOVE!!
