African Women of Love Ministry is a non-profit volunteer dependent ministry focused on the mission of transforming lives of individuals in Sierra Leone (a country in West Africa) through the power and grace of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. Our goal is to help Sierra Leonean become contributing members of their communities through cost-effective Community-based health care, adult education and developmental programs. (Matthew 26:35-36)
The coastal West African nation of Sierra Leone is one of the poorest countries in the world. Maternal and child mortality rates are extremely high, and its 5.3 million people have a life expectancy of just 38 (for men) to 41 (for women) years of age. A civil war devastated its infrastructure, killed approximately 50,000 persons, and forced millions to seek refuge in neighboring countries. Fueled by the illicit trade in Sierra Leone’s "blood diamonds"—so called for their role in funding conflicts—the war lasted eleven years, and left a brutal legacy behind. Rebel forces were known for beating, raping, and maiming civilians, with amputation of limbs by machete their trademark. A United Nations-backed war crimes court has since been established to try those on both sides of the conflict responsible for these brutalities.
Today, the United Nations refer to Sierra Leone as “one of the ten topics the world doesn't hear enough about”. It is the second poorest country in the world. The United Nations named Sierra Leone as the world's “least livable” country, based on its poverty and the poor quality of life that its citizens must endure.
Which is why the African Women of Love Ministry has its main focus is in healthcare and education. Our goal is to help every individual develop their full physical, mental, and social potential. And to help them become contributing members of their communities as they understands the goodness of God.
