"The Lord shall command the blessing upon you in your storehouse and in all you undertake. And He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God gives you."

 

Deuteronomy 28:8

In 2021, due to the generous support of our Favor partners, God gave us 272 acres of prime farmland to begin farming for the sustainability of the ministry. In 2022 we were able to farm 80 acres and supply staples for the children and youth in the ministry. This year we are farming almost 200 acres and we are seeing God bless the land He has given us with rice, maize, beans, and vegetables. There is enough product to feed our GIFT centers (God's Institute for Transformation) and some for selling as well.

In 2020 we started fish farming. With 8 ponds, we harvest and sell tilapia and catfish as well as reproduce and sell fingerlings. This year God blessed us with equipment to make our own fish feed.

This month we celebrate the opening of our poultry house. Thank you Jesus! Within the next few weeks we will be stocking 350 chicks to start and believe God will bring the increase.

One of the exciting faucets of these sustainability projects is that they become vocational training projects for our youth who were formerly on the streets but are now being transformed by the power of God. Part of the holistic transformation for these youth is that they pick a vocational training project and finish with a government certification in the vocation. Currently 8 of our former GIFT youth are either now interning or on staff with Favor! Many others have started up their own businesses or gotten jobs within the community.

Our vocations include:

All of these projects have been funded by God through YOU! Thank YOU!

"You shall eat the fruit of the labor of your hands; you shall be blessed and it shall be well with you."

  • Resources and Finances – Please pray for a provision of resources which are needed to finish the PBSs and bring our missionaries home.

  • New Intake of GIFT Street Youth – Please pray that God will continue to bring hope and healing to the brokenness of these new GIFT street youth and that He would establish them firmly in their identity in Christ!

  • 2023 Vision - Our 2023 vision is 'Mighty Exploits'! As God sweeps the nations of Africa and across America, we pray for revival fires to burn in the hearts of people to transform nations!

Our teams in Africa are praying for each Favor partner daily and we will have them lift up your specific prayer requests if you send them to us at prayer@favorintl.org.
