FROM THE FOUNDER’S DESK.  As we approach a season of Thanksgiving, I want you to know how grateful I am for you. Whenever I give thanks for my blessings, I think of you, my faithful partner in the Lord’s work. I thank God for you and the difference you’ve made in the lives of our girls – the world and for the kingdom of heaven. Many people have been lifted out of poverty, sickness, and despair because you care so deeply for others and invest in sharing the love of Jesus.Thank you once again for being part of this. Founder – Mrs. Fola Soyebo. Testimony…. My name is Comfort Oboh Ewans, a girl whose life was changed by EMHFGIRLSHOME. I joined the home in 2015 after being rescued from my step dad, who was constantly sexually harassing me. I was staying with my mom and step dad( I don’t know my real dad), and my step dad sexually harassed me for 9 years. Got tired of the situation and decided to speak up because no family member could believe me, but EMHFGIRLSHOME believed and rescued me from the house and took me into the girls’ home. On joining the home, I received massive love and care, I was given a voice to  speak and be heard. I was taught to love God and humanity. I was given the ability to dream again as a child. Thought my education would stop but EMHF Girls home placed me in a school. I was still in junior secondary school 3 (JSS 3) at the point of joining the home , they took care of my education with the help of a sponsor which i got through the home and now I am a graduate of Computer Science from Caleb University, Lagos State, Nigeria.( Second class upper division). Right now, I don’t feel like a girl who was sexually harassed anymore. I feel loved by God, love by people, and I was helped to find identity in christ, to be a voice to many girls  of my age who might be going through that. A big thank you to EMHFGIRLSHOME and everyone helping the home. Thanks for giving me a future and a life.
