An inspiring story of one woman's survival and her part in God's
work in Africa
Annie Chikhwaza grew up in Holland. In struggling to come to
terms with her abuse as a child, she tried to commit suicide but
was dramatically converted through the ministry of Brother Andrew.
She then began to minister, first to the poor and marginalized on
the streets of Amsterdam and then in the volatile townships of
South Africa during the height of the apartheid era.
After surviving an abusive marriage and the turmoil and
humiliation of divorce, she married a poor African pastor and went
to Malawi to start an orphanage. Today Annie has nearly two hundred
children in her care, many of whom are HIV positive, and she has
built a small town called Kondanani ("Love one another"), which
boasts a care facility, several children's homes, a nursery school,
primary school, and farm. Kondanani is an oasis of love in a
country with more than one million orphans. It has attracted the
attention of the media around the world and a host of celebrities,
including Madonna, who has adopted one of Kondanani's children.
Annie's story, told here for the first time, shares her many
terrible trials: abuse, abortion, a broken back, attempted murder,
the loss of everything she had built, attempted rape, and the death
of her beloved husband. Her story might have been one of bitterness
and anger; instead, Annie uses each trial to point to God's love
for her and for every one of His creation.
