Angola

In the tip of the spear!

Every day at Angola, thousands of children suffer for missing a hugh from a mother, a father. They suffer because of the hungry, the SIDA, the past and the recent wars.

The name Angola comes from the bantu word N'gola, which means a title given to the local governors from the 16th Century, the time that had began the land colonization by Portugal. It was a portuguese colony until 1975. It stayed under civil war from 1961 until 2002. Since 1975, the political power was on the hands of MPLA, however the resistance (UNITA) had dominated some part of Angola's territory until the end of the last civil war.

Angola is a country from the Occidental Coast of Africa, limited at North, by the Democratic Republic of Congo, at the East, by Zambia, at South, by Namibia and at West, by the Atlantic Ocean. This nation includes also the turbulent depression of Cabinda, by across that makes frontier with the Republic of Congo, at North and it the closest country to the britain colony of Saint Helen, yet. Its capital is Luanda.

At YWAM Ponta Grossa, in Brazil, we have been called by God to bring hope to Angola. Our vision is to open an orphanage at this nation at medium term. Nowadays, we have been prayed for that and began a researching and raising resources process, firstly, to get new people and after to get logistics.

You can be part from this dream of seeing Angola different. Get in touch with us and know more about how you can help!
