Covenant Mercies is a ministry that exists to serve orphans in collaboration with indigenous local communities in the developing world. Their vision is to see orphaned children rise above poverty and become positive stewards of their gifts and resources. Covenant Mercies began in response to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Sub-Saharan Africa and the call to serve orphans. Through leveraging its founding church’s relational networks of indigenous partners in the developing world, Covenant Mercies launched the Orphan Sponsorship Program in rural eastern Uganda in 2003.
From 2006 to 2008, the Orphan Sponsorship Program expanded to include program areas in western Uganda; Ndola, Zambia; and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. As a part of its commitment to quality care for sponsored children, Covenant Mercies also invested in special healthcare and education projects, such as the building of Lighthouse Christian School in Zambia, and two Covenant Mercies medical clinics in Uganda. Today, Covenant Mercies serves over 1,300 orphaned children in Sub-Saharan Africa.
