(Mrs.) Solayide&nbsp;Anike Olaseinde in response to the call of God to care for the abandoned babies,&nbsp;orphans and motherless babies. On 9th November, 1993, God called me to work for Him&nbsp;in His Vineyard. Then I formed the Busy and Young Bees Societies, but resisted full time&nbsp;work in His Vineyard, because my business was then booming in Oke-Arin market in&nbsp;Lagos Island. I, however, noticed that all the profit I was making from the business was&nbsp;being siphoned by satan through various problems.<br \/>\nI decided to give up my business on the 17th December, 2000 to make time for God\u2019s&nbsp;work. I then enrolled at deliverance and Healing Unit School of St. Barth\u2019s Anglican&nbsp;Church, Aguda for 18 months Course and also at Lagos Bible College at Board Street&nbsp;under the management of the Anglican Communion for all the Courses up to Readers&nbsp;Course. God called me again on 28th may, 2001 to start counselling in His house at St.&nbsp;Luke\u2019s Anglican Church, Ijeshatedo, Lagos. It was in the course of carrying out my work&nbsp;as a counsellor in the House of God that I came across an old lady who lost her<br \/>\ndaughter. The late daughter left behind six children and her husband, but the father of&nbsp;the six children had abandoned them, leaving the old lady to take care of them.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, I was moved to sympathy with the plight of this family. Unfortunately, I had no&nbsp;means to be of assistance to them. I cried to God in prayers and fasting at the end of&nbsp;which God directed me to take care of two of her six children. The kids, a boy and a girl&nbsp;of ages 5 and 4 respectively got to me on October, 2001. The eldest was taken by a friend&nbsp;of the family. I have solicited for help from the people of God to take care of the&nbsp;remaining three kids but no help came. There is no doubt that there are several other&nbsp;families in similar or worse situation either in the church as to what to do to be useful in&nbsp;His Vineyard.<br \/>\nIt was the burden I had for the remaining three kids, one boy and two girls that made God&nbsp;to call me to form Christ Motherless Babies\u2019 Home under the supervision of my local&nbsp;church, St. Luke\u2019s Anglican Church, Ijeshatedo, Lagos. The name Christ Motherless&nbsp;Babies\u2019 Home was changed to Christ Orphanage because of the broader scope of caring<br \/>\nfor motherless, abandoned babies, orphans and less privileged in the society.<br \/>\nIt is my joy that this orphanage has grown to a Non Governmental Organization.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OUR VISION: is to Put Smiles on People\u2019s Faces OUR MISSION: Is to see that all our children become better citizens in future.
