Overview
Mission
Following the admonishments of jesus christ in matthew 25 of how we are to prepare for christ's return, it is the mission of a little charity to minister to the most vulnerable members of society as if we are ministering to christ. To accomplish that end, we work with prostitutes and street boys in the slums of maputo, mozambique.in accordance with luke 14, it is our duty to reach out to the forgotten members of society and invite them to god's heavenly banquet. We must preach, teach, explain the scriptures, pray and minister to those who are neglected by society.

Through our work at cdl, we helped three recent graduates to enter american master's degree programs in theology. One is studying in english and the other two in portuguese. We also began teaching 12 new students who have started their bachelor's degree.
