“JESUS IS KING ORPHANAGE” (JIKO)

Montrose Colorado United Methodist Church (MUMC) is a proud sponsor of the Jesus Is King Orphanage  (JIKO) in Aboadze, Ghana. 

The church’s connection began in 2006 led by members Marshall Arriving at JIKOand Beckie Pendergrass.  While living in Ghana when Marshall managed the Takoradi Thermal Power Station, the Pendergrasses became involved with the orphanage’s efforts to provide children with a place to live, clean drinking water, regular meals and education.  They also generated awareness of the orphanage’s needs to friends, family and other members of MUMC.

Samuel Bangura, an orphan himself, started Jesus Is King Orphanage.  After losing his parents in war in the West African country of Sierra Leone, Samuel came to Aboadze, a fishing community of about 3,000 people.

Annual Conference 2010 is now over, but not forgotten.  The four day event was filled with information and several quotable moments.  "Rethink Red" and Bishop Elaine enjoys the pregame festivities"Rockies Purple" T-shirts were appearing on attendees to the Rocky Mountain Conference, as they gathered in Denver for the 2010 Annual Conference session. The T-shirts were in preparation for "United Methodist Day" at the Rockies baseball game following the ordination service on the last day. Over 700 attended to see the Rockies.  Although the Rockies lost 6 to 1 to the Brewers, a great time was had by all!


The opening session reviewed accomplishments of the conference and churches, giving background to the work of the conference session.
