Nigerian Church Praised For Doing Charity In The Usa by Calradised: 9:45pm On Dec 29, 2011
hey fellow nairalanders,
which nigerian church do you think was behind this act of charity towards the homeless in the US, thousands and thousands of miles away?

I personally think it is tb joshua and the synagogue church of all nations. his is the only ministry that is so active in works of charity all over the world - who else would be so generous as to think of needy people in america?

If anyone knows which church this was, please let us know.

This church deserves kudos, big one. they are changing the image of nigeria in the west.



Nigerian church donates to Newport ranch for homeless men

NEWPORT, Wash. -- At The Lord's Ranch for homeless men in Newport thousands of dollars in donations were put to good use thanks to an unlikely donor: A Nigerian church.
"This is real nice stuff and it looks like something quality that'll last with the guys and something good they've never had in their life," resident Joseph Boenick said as he looked around the room.
It's Boenick's third month at the ranch, which is a shelter for 30 men who are recovering addicts or homeless. On Wednesday food and clothing was brought in from a Tri-Cities church.

"We'll be warm out in the woods while we're out cutting wood and doing our job and we won't be cold. Our feet won't be freezing," Boenick said.

The Tri-Cities Christian church facilitated the $2,250 donation from a Nigerian Christian church known for its charity work.
"It's amazing this church in Lagos, Nigeria said they want to do something to help the poor in America because we're having a financial crisis here," the head of Lord's Ranch, Adrian Simila, said.
If it all sounds too good to be true, and you're wondering if there's a catch, Simila says there isn't one and they've already used the money to buy jackets, jeans, food, and snow tires for the van.
"This is a real tangible gift. It's not a scam from Nigeria, this is the real deal," he said.

Volunteers at the Lord's Ranch say the donations will also help them farm their vegetables and take care of their cattle.
"When churches band together, stuff like this is possible. This is so good, this is a blessing," Boenick said.

They admit it's a bit odd to receive money from a friend of a church they've never had contact with, but they'll gladly accept.
