G.G.Orphanage
The small town of Isanlu in Nigeria is home to Greater Grace Orphanage. This orphanage was founded by Joseph Obielodan in 1996 to provide food, shelter, and a nurturing environment where the gospel could be shared with children. Joseph was trained by SIM (Serving in Missions) missionaries throughout his informative years. The Lord burdened Joseph’s heart to do something to help care for just some of the millions of orphans in Nigeria. It is his hope that by the grace of God the children will learn to play an active role in their local church and serve as mentors for other orphans one day.
The orphanage is currently housed in a four-bedroom, one-bath home that has been offered to them free of charge. However, this facility has definite limitations due to the large number of children and staff that live in the house. In 2006, the Lord provided land and funds to begin work on a new facility. The hope is that one day the campus will include a dormitory, dining facility, library, kitchen and offices that will enable the orphanage to care for at least 200 children. This facility will also provide land needed to teach the children agricultural skills to provide food and income for themselves and the orphanage. The skills they learn will aid in addressing the agricultural challenges experienced by much of Nigeria.
