Mission

EPHRATHA HOUSE CHRISTIAN MINISTRIES OPERATES A CHRISTIAN ORPHANAGE IN THE TOWN OF MACHINJIRI IN MALAWI SOUTHEASTERN AFRICA. THE CURRENT FACILITY IS CAPABLE OF HOUSING TEN SMALL CHILDREN UP TO AGE FIVE. PHASE ONE OF EPHRATHA HOUSE IS TO MOVE INTO A LARGER FACILITY CAPABLE OF HOUSING BETWEEN 100-150 CHILDREN. WITH THOUSANDS OF ORPHANED CHILDREN IN THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY, THE NEED IS AS GREAT AS IT IS URGENT. PHASE TWO OF EPHRATHA HOUSE INVOLVES THE PROCUREMENT OF AGRICULTURAL LAND TO SUPPORT THE ORPHAN SERVICES. THERE ARE CROPS THAT CAN ONLY BE GROWN IN THE REGIONS AROUND THE EQUATOR SUCH AS COFFEE, COCOA, AND MACADAMIA NUTS. CULTIVATING THESE GEOGRAPHICALLY SENSITIVE CROPS WILL DRAMATICALLY IMPACT LOCAL ECONOMIES BY PAYING A TRULY LIVING WAGE TO WORKERS WHO ARE TOO OFTEN TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF. IN ADDITION TO FUNDING OUR ORPHAN SERVICES, PHASE TWO SERVES THE DUAL FUNCTION OF LIFTING UP LOCAL COMMUNITIES AND PROVIDING A WITNESS TO GOD'S GREAT LOVE FOR THEM IN JESUS.
