Philadelphia Mission was registered as a British charity with Charity Commissions on November 1995.  Its Founder/Director is Evangelist Trevor Irwin, is a Missionary with over 15 years of experience. As he sought through Prayer and meditation what God wanted to name  the Charity, Revelations Ch 3:7-11 became a powerful influence in his life  Jesus letter to the Philadelphia Church. [Church of brotherly Love]. Philadelphia [Love to God and mankind]

God called Evangelist Trevor to serve him as a missionary in 1993 and is still working with the extreme poor in Rural and Isolated villages in Africa today. Evangelist Trevor has also worked with isolated poor villagers in South India. Truly God has given Evangelist Trevor a deep Love and compassion for the extreme poor,  no matter what colour, race or religion. All of us at Philadelphia Mission believe that every living soul has a right to Clean water, Education, Shelter, food and health care. Sadly in a world where there is so much, so many never have the opportunity to have even the basic commodities of life. This is where Evangelist Trevor and the small team at Philadelphia Mission step in. 

 

We at Philadelphia Mission  believe from our years of working with these people, that Food handouts is only a temporary solution, even though at times necessary. In the continent Africa the death rate of children aged between 0-5 years old is a staggering  [2..3 million on average per year ]

In the rural and isolated villages where we work, many children suffer from chronic malnutrition, Rickets, Intestinal worms, River Blindness, Malaria, Polio, and many other preventable diseases.. In Tunga/Zuga  and Ungwa/fada Villages the wells dry up during the long dry Season. They have no choice but to drink from the river. both adults and children suffer blindness and intestinal worms.

Worms kills many here and children die in agony. They have no school, medical facilities and help. children's limbs are bowed and twisted, because they have a disease called rickets. They walk with terrible pain. yet all these diseases can be prevented and most stopped. This is the reason why we are committed to reaching as many as we can with help. We have installed water pumps in some villages, so they can pump river water to the fields during dry season. but they still need clean drinking water.

 

Evangelist Trevor lives in the villages with the people and see their suffering first hand. Each year he joins with Salama Health Ministries [Partners with Philadelphia Mission],  several times per year and they notice many children have died, from the previous visits and most from preventable and treatable sickness and diseases. If you have ever witnessed a child die in your arms from starvation, or dehydration, you will know only to well the terrible pain that child experiences, and that child's cry is something very different to any other.

Today we are making a real difference. We do need you to help us do much more. We have a small Mission Center in Kujama village, Kaduna State. Nigeria. Our small team are totally committed to providing help for all who are in dire need. we are in need of financial support to do much more.

Philadelphia Mission is a Small Charity, and [all members are Unpaid Volunteers]. We are a Christian Charity, *that cares for all people, regardless of their Colour, or Religion*. Staff and Volunteers  are honest and inspired people with commitment and vision. Through years of experience and knowledge of the people, their customs and traditions, we have changed so many lives for the better. Children who could not afford to go to school, now can. We have purchased clothing, medicine, tools and water pumps. [Our Latest  project will go much further and make an even greater impact on many more precious lives..

We need Partners to help us provide these vital services.

[We work in partnership with Salama health ministries, A registered African Organization, situated in Kujama in Nigeria. We in the UK work hands on with Salama health Ministry, and the people in rural Nigeria. We have a Small Maternity wing, a pharmacy, a village health care program, literacy class, widows care program and other activities. We are proud that we have done so much with so little finance.  ]
