What We Do
In His Loving Hand, Inc., is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit
organization founded in the United States in 2003 to support the Christian mission work which an American
missionary began in 1999 in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, West Africa. IHLH workers are following the Gospel of
Jesus Christ to go and make disciples, to share the Word of God, and to help many, many poor people,
especially children, young adults, and women.
EDUCATION
IHLH's two schools
are called Noah's Ark #1 and Noah's Ark #2. In 2000 the first class had 50 students and one teacher.
Today there are over 20 teachers and 550 students with many more on a waiting list. IHLH hopes to have
the funds soon to build a big school building for Noah's Ark #2.

Florence, one of our kindergarten teachers.
We are proud that many who have finished the highest level of IHLH schools have skipped a
grade when they entered public school.
Here are some students happy to be in one of the new classrooms in Noah's Ark #1 with Symphorien, who was the first teacher of Noah's Ark.
Noah's Ark #2 is in a very inadequate
building that IHLH hopes to replace with a much
larger one as soon as financially possible.
VOCATIONAL TRAINING
IHLH Sewing School
45 young women are attending In His Loving Hand's three-year sewing
school, which began in 2000 in a poor community on the outskirts of Abidjan. IHLH hopes to
construct a sewing production center.

EVANGELISM
Every Wednesday there is evangelism at IHLH's schools and other locations of Abidjan.
Many kids come running to listen to Bible stories told by teams of our teachers.

SOCCER TEAMS
IHLH supports about 100 at-risk teenage soccer players in a poor community north of Abidjan.
They learn values about working as a team, setting goals, and winning through fair play.
Last soccer season the IHLH team was the best in the area.
The team relies on IHLH's support to pay for registration fees, uniforms, transportation,
and other expenses. The team's headcoach is also one of the elementary school teachers.
You can read the testimony of one of the boys on the Testimonials page.
IHLH Workers in Africa: Helping the Poor Children
There are over 20 African teachers who are truly devoted to sharing the love and the
Word of God with others as well as academic subjects to underprivileged African children.
Most of the teachers have lived in or are currently living in the poor areas where they
are working. Some of IHLH's teachers are pictured below. Second from the left is Ivelta
Angui, the IHLH Director who is from Brazil. Her Ivorian husband, Pascal Angui also helps
in the mission.
