Angel Guardian Home
Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ Nigerian Region was founded by the German Province on 4th April, 2006. In Nigeria, we serve God and humanity and minister to the poor, the sick, the children and the less privileged through our schools, clinic and a home for the less privileged called Angel Guardian Home. Our Unique ministry is the Children’s home through which we have given shelter and hope to many hopeless children.
Gioja Nursery & Primary School
Gioja Nursery & Primary School which is run by Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ was started with the mission to help the poor people in Mgbele community and its neighborhood to have access to quality education. It is located in the Eastern part of the country. Since the inception of the school in 2009, many poor children have been privileged to be part of the scholarship scheme of Dr. Peter & Rita Caluori, who are the Swiss sponsors of the school. Their generosity will always be appreciated.
Garam Community Farm
As Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ ministering in Nigeria, the sisters are not only engaged in apostolate, ministry and pastoral work. They engage in farm work as well and in the Northern part of the country, precisely in Garam community, the sisters have a large scale farm where they cultivate various kinds of crops both for consumption and for sale. This is one of the ways they work towards sustainability.
