My Darling Boys

I have the amazing privilege of living and working with these precious boys in a children's center with Iris Ministries in Maputo, Mozambique. Here's your chance to get to know a little bit about them . . .

Nelinho

Nelinho’s birthdate is March 27, 1996. He has a twin brother, Manito, in this dorm. His parents are dead but he has an older teenage brother living on their family land. When he is older, he will be able to live there as well. Currently, his father’s best friend’s family takes he and Manito in for holidays and visits and look after them like their own. They can’t live there permanently because the family has seven children of their own! Nelinho is very quiet and rather withdrawn but very helpful and obedient. His favorite food is salad and he’s not sure what he wants to be when he grows up.

About Me

My Photo
Laura Anderson
Maputo, Mozambique
A few excerpts from my life's To-Do list: 1. Find a dead body. 2. Return a lost pet to it's owner. 3. Spend a year of my life working at an orphanage. Well, it's been over six years now and I'm loving living one of my dreams, living and working with 30 boys, ages 4-9, in a childrens center in Maputo, Mozambique! I'm far from my home in the US but love my life here with my boys. (And two out of three of those goals ain't bad!)
