Nazareth House Apostolate

This morning as I opened my facebook, I saw this post from James Mansaray of Freetown.  My heart sunk in memory of the horror the people of Sierra Leone suffered at the hands of greed. Andrew was going to be a lawyer and the rebels wanted him to join them in their wickedness.   His refusal cost him his life, hacked to death with a machete.   I need say nothing further, what is written is enough.

…this is only a single memory of a life snatched away, there are hundreds and thousands.  All Sierra Leoneans were touched by the icy hand of wickedness in one manner or another.  Everyone  either lost a loved one, had someone in the family that suffered an amputation or endured the atrocities themselves.

Please help Nazareth House Apostolate do all that it can to improve the lives of these peaceful caring people.   This horror was not rooted in them, it was rooted from outsiders who were driven by greed.

Please give today, as a memorial to those who lost their lives, their arms and legs:  Let’s show them LOVE, selfless love.   Give today:

There is lunch to be had …  

Balmaya: One of the favorite restaurants in Freetown!

 …BUT poor little Roo lies on the floor with his “well-loved friend”.   He has malaria.  

 Moment by moment the streets become more and more active.  

Taxi cabs and pedestrians dart from alley to street.  Papers fly in the wind and tin cans roll to the gutters.  
Rush, Rush…Everyone is “taking care” of business. 

…all the while,  ill children are lying on the floor like Roo throughout the city, the country – unnoticed by the day’s activities.   


Roo is fortunate, because of you, through NHA, he has some medications available.  He has a roof over his head. Even so, malaria (any illness) is dangerous in Sierra Leone.  No one is exempt from its effects. The minimum healthcare efforts we depend on in America are a far cry above what a Sierra Leonean can hope for. 


 NHA can’t cure it all or feed everyone, but working together, we can make a huge difference in many, many lives —one life at a time .   


Don’t look away, don’t give up – don’t undo in doubt what you began in faith.
