Our Visit to Oye-Kiti in Ekiti State, Nigeria

Balm of Joy Foundation Activities, Donations, FTA Ministry 0

We, Balm Of Joy Foundation, cannot be at every place or cities states and countries in the world at the same time.

We cannot do the work on our own.

When we decided to extend our work to villages in Nigeria, we came across Tutumade Adeyeye Foundation, through Tutumade Adeyeye herself, at Ise Ekiti in Ekiti State.

We spoke to her and she was glad to work with us.

We decided to visit Oye Ekiti in Ekiti State to reach out to those in need through her and her team.

Masks, huge bags of Rice and Beans was given through Tutumade Adeyeye Foundation to help distribute especially to the widows and the less privileged in the village.

Thanks to Tutumade Adeyeye Foundation, this project came to fruition without any hitch.

Here are some of the photographs.

Please DO NOT forget those in the village.

DO NOT run from them.

Though we have problems in the city, imagine what they are going through and there is only much Balm Of Joy Foundation can do.

Let’s keep remembering them and join hands to do more.

Remain blessed

Peace and Love, FTA

I implore us all to try and visit these villages in order to put smiles on people’s face. We need to do more for each other. There are many widows uncatered for. So many children not in school. Not even a school building around these villages as most have to walk to town to get a simple education. So many with no amenities like proper toilets to prevent diseases from spreading. Above all, their food supply is low and these people are easily forgotten. God bless you more as you spread your blessings. Peace and Love, FTA

Her husband is no more. She had not been catered for by her family. Our visit was a Timely intervention otherwise she would have had to beg in the rain or hot sun

He wept like a baby when he received the food item

Another blind lady who couldn’t believe she could be blessed.

This is the woman that accommodated the team that visited the village to distribute the food items. We did not have to spend for a stay at the hotel.

The crippled woman and the interview with her. God bless her heart, amen

The team that traveled to the remote village led by Pastor Ernest Ansong

Mummy she has 3 children and the husband is dead. She said when she woke up this morning, she was thinking what she and her children would eat before we came to blessed her. I personally gave him 5 cedis because of the hardship she is going through. She said God bless you and your family and her request is that we will come again

This man said he had not eaten since yesterday and for that he’s eternally grateful because God answered his prayers.

LOVE FEAST WITH 700 INMATES

Funmi Tayo-Ajimoko Activities, FTA Ministry, Visits 0

LOVE FEAST WITH ABOUT 700 INMATES AT KOFORIDUA PRISON

John 3:17
“For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved”.

Our 2nd trip, February 9,2019, to the Koforidua prison, for the Love Feast, was a more humbling experience than before. We were able to enter the prison and meet with about 800 inmates with their officers and fed them all. Unfortunately, we were not allowed to take pictures or record any video. THE PICTURES ATTACHED ARE THE BEST WE COULD TAKE.

“He who believes in Him is not condemned, but he who does not believe is condemned already because he has not believed in the name of the begotten Son Of God”. John 3:18

FTAM Evangelical Mission Outreach in collaboration with Balm Of Joy Foundation implores us all, no matter how badly you may have been treated, granted some crimes are unforgivable, learn to forgive so that ‘whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.
But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven will forgive your trespasses.
Mark 11:25-26

Above all, let’s be our brothers and sisters keepers. We all need each other. NO MAN IS AN ISLAND.
However, PLEASE pray before you GIVE and Let the Spirit Of the Living God guide you always.
IT IS BLESSED TO GIVE THAN RECEIVE.

Peace and Love,

OUR VISIT TO THE GHANA PRISON AND SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF AT KOFORIDUA

Balm of Joy Foundation and FTA Ministry made a visit to the Ghana Prison Service at Koforidua with the intent to evangelise to the prisoners with some donations.

We also visited the school for the deaf. Unfortunately, they were on holidays,until January 14th, 2019 when the school will resume.

Since we were not allowed to take pictures inside the Prison, this is the best we could do.

Let’s be our brothers’ and sisters’ keepers.

Some are there out of ignorance and error.

OUR VISIT TO THE KING’s PALACE AT KWAHU

Funmi Tayo-Ajimoko Activities, FTA Ministry, Uncategorized, Visits 0

It was a beautiful trip to Kwahu on Saturday 9th September 2018 in the Eastern Region of Ghana.

I and my team, F.I. owusu (General Overseer and Senior Pastor, Fruitful Christians Church) and Prince Nana,(team member, Head of State Awards, HOSA) met with the newly installed King of Kwahu, HE Okwahuman, the traditional ruler of the area, Daasebre Akuamoah Agyapong 11. (Picture Of I and him will be taken upon our next visit in his royal attire as he is not permitted to take pictures without being properly dressed. However, during the meeting, he was there)

We were warmly welcomed by the King himself & his council members, & the chiefs of surrounding towns & villages (see pics attached)

The purpose of our visit was to introduce Balm of Joy Foundation ( which basically sends children back to school) and Funmi Tayo-Ajimoko Ministry (FTAM- an evangelical outreach) so as to engage the King & his chiefs to understand the ways we can help them in line with our 2018 program of reaching out to selected regions, towns & villages.

After a lengthy discussion, we came to the conclusion of building them a library (or repaint one of their schools) to help increase the literacy level of the children & increase their interest in education.

We also agreed to convene a Love Feast to bring the children together & encourage the talented ones amongst them with scholarship awards for the most outstanding academic records or less privileged but desirous to be educated.

It was also agreed that FUNMI TAYO-AJIMOKO (Evangelism) MINISTRY will reach out to the people of the land by evangelising the Word Of God through Jesus Christ by offering bibles and Tshirts in two of their popular local language, Twi and Ewe.

We also visited the Kwahu Presbyterian Church Of Ghana (the 1st Presbyterian Church in Ghana) which is situated at the mountain top of Kwahu.The church is over a 100 years old. It is called Ramseyer Memorial Church, Abetifi, Mpraeso (video attached)

We hereby solicit donations from well-meaning individuals and men & women of goodwill with a charitable heart for their token of support towards our cause.

Your labour Of Love will not be in vain, amen

Peace and Love

KAYAA GIRLS

Funmi Tayo-Ajimoko Activities, Visits 0

KAYAA GIRLS

Kayaa girls as the name implies means Carrier girls who help people in carrying goods on their heads at the market for a pittance or token.

I met them during one of my visits to the local market in Accra with a lady friend of mine. We enquired of two of them, if they could follow us around and I was stunned at the impeccable English they spoke. I turned to look into their eyes and enquired further why they were not in school and understand whatever happened to them.

They explained they were from the Northern part of Ghana, Tamale and had travelled 12-14 hours to Accra to seek Kayaa work in a bid to raise funds to help with their school fees.

It is worth emulating as they did not get into prostitution but opted to work hard and make something good of their lives. This now made Balm of Joy Foundation to get involved with their education and also expose their plight to the public who thinks of them as reprobate girls with no future. However, one will be surprised at the educational level and attainment of some of them.

I believe they deserve respect and compassion whenever we all visit the market. Some of them are a diamond in the ruff.

Give unto these children to help through their education. There are some around your neighbourhood too that need your help.

Pictures and video attached to convince you of giving back to the community no matter how small

God bless you all

Peace and Love
