Here is a story of hope! Now twenty-three-years-old, Timothy Kadama was born in Zambia into a family of 14 children. His mother was one of three wives married to his father, who died in 2012. After the death of his father, the few animals they had were stolen away and there was no inheritance for the children. Timothy’s mother soon remarried but her children were not welcomed into her new home. They were ill-treated, unloved and unwanted. Timothy and his siblings stopped going to school as their mother was unable to care for them. Concerned villagers contacted Social Welfare who did an assessment and recommended them to Calvary Village of Hope. Calvary Village of Hope was an Orphanage at Calvary Church until 2020, and there they were able to offer care and support to Timothy – helping him to write his own hope story.
