Ministry & Outreach

At Torchgrab Africa, our ultimate focus is on bringing Christ to the center of everything we do.

We believe that this message of hope and salvation (the Gospel) is crucial in bringing lasting change and transformation to the lives of the vulnerable children and communities we serve.

“If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing finger and malicious talk, and if you spend yourselves on behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday.”

— Isaiah 58:9b-10

We are deeply committed to living out the message of this scripture by working with hungry, oppressed, and vulnerable children and communities in the slums.

This is our mission, and we believe that it is our calling to serve and support these individuals as they strive to overcome the challenges they face and build better lives for themselves. We are dedicated to making a positive impact in these communities, and to being a source of hope and support for those in need.
