Sister Yengo's Children

" Do small things with great love." Mother Theresa

Sister Yengo's Children
are the orphaned,
the handicapped,
the homeless in the Republic of Congo.

Due to the ravages of the five-year civil war and the AIDS epidemic, there are nearly 100,000 orphans in the Congo - a country of only -3.5 million people. 

  • Sister Brigitte Yengo, along with several other sisters and volunteers, provides a safe and loving home to about 50 of these orphans, ranging in age from a few weeks to nine years old.
  • Polio is still a scourge in Africa.  For many people afflicted with the aftermath of polio, a wheelchair provides not only mobility, but also a sense of freedom and a job because these wheelchair bikes in turn are made by handicapped people.
  • The Mission also contains a chiropractic medical clinic and rehabilitation and occupational  programs for the blind and disabled. 
  • As National Director of the Special Olympics program in the Congo, Sister Brigitte Yengo brings a great sense of accomplishment and self-worth to her special needs athletes.
