In an unstable world, where families suffer most, City Ministries (CM) strives to heal the brokenness of Nigerians who have nowhere else to go. CM includes ministries to street boys and widows and outreaches to the handicapped and disabled, and has plans to start a ministry for street girls.
Lunch at Gidan Bege
The hub of CM ministry in Jos is Gidan Bege (GB), which means “House of Hope.” GB houses the widow outreach, where widows can come to receive food and a Christian message once a week.
Those seeking provision for families can take sewing and literacy classes. Upon graduation from the program, they receive their very own sewing machine. The manufacturing center for prosthetics and bicycles for the handicapped is also located at GB.
