 Meet the Team - Lydia MCH Board Secretary and  Administrative / Communication Director Lydia, Ayan and Amirah Lydia’s story is a powerful testament to the strength found in faith. As our Board Secretary and Administrative and Communications Director, Lydia is a cornerstone of the Momo Children’s Home team, but her journey to this leadership role began in a place of great hardship. TESTIMONY:  Lydia, the mother of Ayan and Amirah, was happily married for over five years. Her husband was a dedicated businessman who ran a small retail shop far from their home, returning every weekend to be with his family. During those years, Lydia’s mother was a constant source of support and care for the household. Tragedy struck unexpectedly one weekend. After leaving for work, Lydia received a devastating call from a friend: her husband had been struck by a car while crossing the road. He never returned home alive; he was brought back in a coffin for burial. In the wake of this loss,...

 Africa Missions Pastors Visit Momo Children's Home What a journey!   I (aka "maama Sue") met James 14 months ago on an online ministry I work with.  After frequent contact, ministering with him and learning more of his situation, I reached out to Africa Missions to see if they could send someone to "vet" James, team and the children.  (See 3 minute video " Our Story - From the beginning ").   Pastor Thabo sent Pastors Innocent and Edward who confirmed their story and that their situation is real.  Since then I and mentor team (aka "Aunt Jodianne, Aunt Steffi,  Uncle Ben and Uncle Fer) have been been working hard to help.     (Check out  Momo Moments Blog side panel and posts for progress updates.  God is on the move!)   What a blessing!   November 12 Africa Missions was in Kampala, Uganda for leadership empowerment and church development initiatives  - about 17 km from what we officially n...

TRUSTING GOD THROUGH THE STORM  A Call To Prayer Posted:  Friday, November 21, 2025  On Wednesday, November 19th, James reached out to me ("maama Sue") with a message describing his current burden: "Good morning Maama, how are you doing today Maama. Am sorry the delay to reply But I was overwhelmed. And In hardship you taught me to seek God first. Maama yesterday i teared up because of the situation. Its challenging time here as  6 of our children are currently sick: Mulunji Joy, Kigozi Ronald, Nangendo Patience, Atukunda Michelle, Nakuwadde Lillian.  We're counting on your prayers during this difficult period. Your prayers would mean a lot to us, Maama. Am overwhelmed, but we're trusting in God's goodness and care for children. Thank you again for always being there for me in every situation. All of them the doctor confirmed malaria But i bought them medicine yesterday." To face one sick child is a challenge; to face six simultaneously, all diagnosed wi...
