Just minutes too late. 💔

We caught the Fulani Herdsmen running away, but they had already destroyed the entire farm our orphanage children planted and tended with their own hands.

Soybeans and tamba crops meant to feed these kids all year? Wiped out.

We refuse to let them go hungry. Help us replace this stolen harvest.

For children who have lost everything, the daily reality in Nigeria can be heartbreaking. Stripped of their parents, their homes, and their safety by ongoing violence and persecution, these precious little ones are left incredibly vulnerable.

Yet, in the darkest circumstances, your compassion is providing a safe haven.

We have just released a brand-new update video highlighting our August outreach, focusing specifically on the care, provision, and protection we are able to offer these orphaned Christian children thanks to your steadfast support.

Watch the update here to see firsthand how your partnership is giving these children a future, restoring their hope, and reminding them they are never forgotten.

Thank you for wrapping these children in love and for standing with them when they need it most.

All glory, praise, and thanksgiving belong to God! We are thrilled to share that two of our amazing girls have been awarded scholarships to attend a private Baptist school in Nigeria!

They worked so hard preparing for their exams, passed their interviews with flying colors, and walked through this open door by His grace.

Please join us in celebrating what the Lord has done! Drop a word of thanksgiving or a prayer for these young ladies in the comments below as they step into this exciting new chapter.

Meet Amar: A Story of Hope & Growth

At just two and a half years old, Amar is showing us all what resilience looks like! Amar came to a Bethlehem shelter when he was just one year old. Over the past few months, he has reached incredible milestones—from walking independently without a walker to climbing stairs all on his own!

One of his caretakers shared:
"These may seem like small milestones, but they are tremendous achievements that bring both him and us great joy."

Amar is full of joy, loves expressing himself with new phrases, and is a big fan of pizza!

Your support of our Bethlehem Food and Diaper Programs help ensure persecuted Christians like Amar get the nutrition and support they need.

Give today: https://heartforthepersecuted.org/donate-social/

Thank you for helping us nourish bright futures!

On July 11, 2026, armed militants attacked villages near our orphanage in Plateau State. In one home, 9 members of a single family—including a 3-month-old baby—were brutally wiped out simply for their Christian faith.

The tragedy hit us directly. One of the mothers killed was the biological mother of Joshua (17), a resident at our orphanage. Joshua stood in the ruins this week to mourn the family stolen from him.

The militants have threatened to return. The danger is active. We cannot look away.

Please stand with our persecuted brothers and sisters in Nigeria during this hour of darkness. They need our prayers, and they need our help.

Heartbreaking news from our Nigerian director, Joshua. Where a peaceful community stood just days ago, only devastation, bloodstains, and grief remain. 💔

Early Monday morning, armed attackers ruthlessly invaded the Kawel Community in Plateau State. Opening fire without warning, they targeted innocent residents in their homes and even stormed a local health center. At least 22 precious lives were violently cut short.

This tragedy is part of a deeply alarming surge of violence against vulnerable communities in Plateau State, where basic religious freedom and the right to live in peace are under constant threat.

We cannot stay silent. We are committed to standing with our persecuted brothers and sisters, and they urgently need our help today.

How You Can Help Right Now:

🙏 PRAY: Lift up the Kawel community. Pray for comfort for the brokenhearted, swift healing for the wounded, and divine protection over Plateau State.

📲 GIVE: We urgently need financial support to provide direct, critical aid to these devastated families. Your immediate gift delivers emergency relief to grieving survivors on the ground.

👉 Head to https://heartforthepersecuted.org/donate-social/ to stand with these defenseless believers in their moment of greatest need.
