The 11 year old only known as "Boy"

As we witnessed the birth of England's new prince who was today given the name George, I am reminded of how we celebrate the birth of our children, our friends children, our relatives children and on and on. Yet, not every child is brought into this world with such excitement and joy!

What about the children whose paretns curse their birth because they are poor, or the mom was raped, or the child is found to have a birth defect?. What about the children that are abandoned by their parents shortly after birth because they cannot care for them?? What about these children? The children with NO NAME, NO FAMILY, NO HOPE.


In Qwa Qwa, there are many children abandoned and left to die in the freezing cold mountainous region.

Miss Julia shares this story:

A tousled haired, unwashed, under nourished ten year old. A boy who entered the world fighting, hated by all and lives scared and defensive. He does not have a name and is only known as "Boy". When Momma Julia fell sick recently with pneumonia, "Boy"
hung around her petrified that she was going to die because most sick people in Qwa Qwa die. When Momma Julia was finally felt better, "Boy" hasn't left her side and has became her special friend.

Can you imagine not having a name? No one feeling joy at the sound of your name! Not knowing who you are or where you came from. Our name gives us belonging and dignity This the world celebrated with weekend with the birth and naming of the new little Prince of england. Because Momma Julia's new friend "Boy" does not have a real name, she and the Mustard Seed ministry will have a Naming Ceremony for Him and all those children that come to The Mustard Seed Ministry with NO NAME. All children are precious in God's sight and deserve the same celebration, belonging and dignity as the Prince of England and you and I.

God works through us and orphans who come to the Mustard Seed for help will find that they are no longer inanimate objects but to living, producing beings. God has so much in store for them! God’s plan is so perfect. We know that, without a doubt. He has always intended for all his children to have a place to call home and learn they are loved children of God!

We would be honored if you would celebrate with us when "Boy" has his Naming Ceremony.

* Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
Psalms 91:14

* Their bodies are buried in peace; but their name liveth for evermore.
Ecclesiasticus 44:14


Thank you for supporting and praying for the Qwa Qwa children and the Mustard Seed Ministry.
