Testimonies

As I look back on the year that has passed, I feel a deep sense of gratitude for the people I have worked with in my role as a social worker at Ma's for Wellington. It's incredible to relive these memories, and words seem insufficient to describe their true magnitude. The experiences I've had have made me aware of how God's providence impacts our lives in the most meaningful ways. At Ma's for Wellington, I realize that it is not about us but about the people who need help. I see people who are desperate, hungry, and in urgent need—not just physically but also spiritually and emotionally.

Cergeo joined our Children's Ministry as a bright-eyed boy at the age of three and remained with us until he was six. Through this program, a strong foundation was established in his life, fostering his development and setting him on a path of success.

John found a new sense of purpose as the driver of our bus for disabled members and by volunteering with our Avodah Ministry. At the age of 75, the Lord created a space for him where he could continue to serve, offer love to our members, assist with activities, and have meaningful conversations with our members.

"God has been good to me!  I've seen His love and He has been gracious to me. There were times where I didn't know what to do or where to go and He reminded me that He is who He say He is, and that He will never leave me nor forsake me. His grace carried me".

Our vision is to create an atmosphere of love. After receiving loads of encouragement, love and acceptance during his first year with us, this boy walked into my Grade RR class with much more confidence.

Life has left deep scars on her little face and sometimes the tears flow, but through it all she constantly testifies to God's goodness and continues to serve.

I'm also proud of myself…I don't have a mom whom I can ask to help me, but I've been raising my little baby alone for over five years, without a father, without any help from family. But I now have the biggest family in Ma’s vir Wellington ever. It gives me the greatest hope and encouragement every time they acknowledge me and show love to me when I get here. I will testify over and over about how good God is.

The time I have been with the MVW family I have come to learn and experience many things. I had a change of heart and have a greater appreciation for the smaller things in life. I have come to learn that it is better to give than to receive; to listen more, talk less and to give more of yourself.

Through Ma’s vir Wellington I had the opportunity to learn to look deeper at children, look at them not just as a child who is naughty or difficult, but as a child who needs our help.
