Orphan Care Center in Mberengwa

Near Neta in the Mberengwa Resettlement Area are 16 abandoned huts in an old farm compound close to a primary school and a high school. The community has been concerned about the number of orphans in the area who are not able to attend school. Some of the new Christians are giving of their time and efforts to help refurbish these huts so orphans can live in them (like a boarding facility) during the school term. During the school holidays and on weekends they will live with their extended family members.



In order to refurbish them, the roofs are being re-thatched. They will each have one small narrow window and a sturdy door placed on them.



Plans are to put 2 sets of bunk beds in each hut, so eventually 64 orphans could stay here. Pray that all will be in place for the orphans to be cared for before the beginning of the next school year in January 2012.
