Children's Home Chain 2nd link...
God's Tender Mercy
God put a fire in the heart of David, a South Sudan native, to care for orphaned children and tell people about Jesus Christ following bible school at the African Inland Church in 2007. There he met Jeff Huber of the U.S., serving with Far Reaching Ministries. Being like minded in Christian service, God's Tender Mercy (GTM) was born in 2010 to love orphans, teach children, and evangelize villagers.
The ministry flourished until 2016 when David's village was overtaken by the country's civil war. Atrocities like ethic killings, mutilations, and rape forced 2 million people to flee the country. Among them was God's Tender Mercy family, now Ugandan refugees. GTM's primary ministries continues to be raising up the 22 children in their care and evangelizing neighbors. Very close to GTM's rented house is the Kiryandongo Refugee Camp with 100,000+ refugees from Kenya, DR Congo, Rwanda, Burundi, and S. Sudan. David began to disciple men who live in the camp weekly. He also has a children's study, Sunday Bible fellowship in their home, and teaches a women's line by line bible study three times/week. GTM is located fours hours north of our 1st link - Raising Up Hope For Uganda - in Kampala.

God led Mike Hartle to GTM, hearing of the ministry through a friend who visited them in S. Sudan. Mike visited them in 2016, 2017, and 2019 believing this ministry to be the 2nd link in the chain. At his 2nd visit, he met 14 new children, ages 5-12, orphaned from S. Sudan's civil war. Unbeknownst to Michael, in less than 60 days, God would call CHC to help David build a Children's Home.
In January 2018, David received a call from a pastor in a northern Uganda refugee camp telling of children who had not a soul on earth to care for them and they spent their days seeking food. With much prayer, David traveled a few hours north to bring 14 children to his home, trusting the Lord for provision. but soon, his landlord wanted 3x the rent money (which he did not have) and neighbors complained about the children and problems with the shared latrine. The landlord evicted them; they have until June to find a new home. Unable to rent or buy another home, both ministries felt the Lord was opening a door to build a Children's Home. We're so blessed to watch God's will unfold. David purchased 2 land parcels near the refugee camp. CHC has raised $10,000 toward construction.

Witness God moving in men's hearts to the glory and praise of His great Name.
