Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the We are immensely grateful to our supporters for their faithfulness and generosity over charity during the the years, without which Lifeway Project would not have been able to “make a difference financial period one life at a time’. Through the continued financial and prayer support of our contributors, we have been able to continue our sponsorship projects in Africa and it's encouraging to see how some of these children are able to progress with their education. The most vulnerable primary and secondary school children, mostly in Uganda and Zimbabwe, continue to receive assistance. Whilst grateful for our contributors generosity, we are often overwhelmed by requests to provide even more support to new children, often orphans. We know that through God's providence and timing such requests will be met by our faithful, everloving and compassionate Heavenly Father who cares even for those Christ calls “the least of these”, that is, the most disadvantaged. Our project director continues to offer support to Cumbernauld Baptist Church and in lieu of their appreciation for the services, Lifeway Project has continued to receive financial support from the church.

He has also taken services at Clarkston Baptist Church, where he’s in membership, and we continue to receive financial assistance from their missions’ budget.
