On the 25th October 2014; New Jerusalem Children’s Home enjoyed and celebrated a day with Ubuntu Help-Portrait, am organisation guided by a simple, all-encompassing, yet radical mission: to help raise Port Elizabeth’s orphaned and vulnerable children by giving them what all children deserve—everything –

A day well spent in giving our children a simple smile, joy and fun as the flashlight – camera was capturing inner joy shown and heard by the great laughter as they missed steps and poses, children showing others best jumps to beautify moments.

“We have to allow ourselves to be loved by the people who really love us, the people who really matter. Too much of the time, we are blinded by our own pursuits of people to love us, people that don’t even matter, while all that time we waste and the people who do love us have to stand on the sidewalk and watch us beg in the streets! It’s time to put an end to this. It’s time for us to let ourselves be loved. Joy Bell“ Read More

Dear God

As I witnessed our beautiful children receiving their 1st Sacrament of the Holy Communion, I am filled with joy and gratitude. As I lovingly watched as each of these children take their first Holy communion, the body and blood of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ I am filled with tears of joy and gratitude for I looked at them and remembered how hard it has been for these children to be where they are today, how I helplessly cried every night for your divine intervention, years and hours spent in hospitals and in emergency rooms, tears rolled down my face when I recall days when I will visit the hospital and got shocked when the child has been taken to a side ward, fear gripped me thinking I might have lost the child only to be relieved that he is in a side ward. As each one come forward to receive You in the Holy Communion, the video of each one painful and traumatic story flashed before me and I am filled with gratitude because your Mercies endureth forever.
