Über das Projekt
R. AKENA von PADER ORPHANS CARING PROJECT ist für dieses Projekt verantwortlich
Pader Orphans Caring Project which is known as (POCP) is local organization non profit making organization which is registered with local government here in Uganda. POCP was started by Akena Richard who was a former child soldier It is morning near Pader in the Kitgum District of Northern Uganda. The children are awakening and getting ready for a breakfast of hot porridge, there is soft chattering going on as the children prepare for the day, once in a while laughter.
Slowly the rebuilding of the North is taking place, the infrastructure is being rebuild at a snails pace, Richard Akena is happy about that but his struggle is a bit different, his mission in life is rebuilding the lives of children who have suffered so deeply during the war years, whose hearts still tremble with fear as night comes, whose faces show the emotional scars within, some of the children show the visible scars of war such as lips, ears, noses chopped off by machetes which were wielded for the most part by child soldiers. Children, but children whose heart and souls were removed by the LRA through brain washing, instilling fear in the abducted children and its ruthless, demonically led and inspired master Joseph Kony who took children from their homes, families, villages and made them into monsters such as Uganda had never seen. Children who in cold blood killed members of their own family, their own clans and their own tribe – the abducted children turned into killers, like zombies running amok.
A kind lady took him in and fed him and gave him shelter. He went to Kampala, hoping for a better life, only to find more despair. It was hard to adjust from a being a child soldier to living as a civilian, normality eluded him and that is when he had encounter with Jesus and purpose and meaning entered his life.
