Project Samuel loves and cares for the children that God has brought into their big family.

They aim to share the love of the Lord, and raise leaders that will impact Zambia in wonderful ways. They also work towards being a positive influence to their local impoverished rural community, through child sponsorship and community outreach programs.

On Saturdays Project Samuel runs a children’s program and welcomes local kids for games, a Bible Study, and a movie. This is led by their older high schoolers!

Currently five of their graduated children are attending University and are fully supported through Project Samuel! 

Kim and Brenden Vowell and their family serve full time overseeing this ministry.

Prayer Requests:

• Please pray for God’s wisdom as we lead this ministry: specifically as we navigate ever changing government expectations and protocols and as we shepherd teens through their high school years.
• Please pray for Brenden as he carries the weight of the ministry, that God would lift the burdens he feels. 
• Please pray for Kim as she mothers three young girls in rural Zambia.
