Divine calling: A home for the destitute needs help

Pastor Yovan Anthony and his wife Agnes Murukaiyah, who run the Pertubuhan Kebajikan Warga Emas dan Anak Yatim Nazareth in Malacca.

The home in Malacca not only provides shelter for its residents but also daily meals and medical care in Government hospitals.

It started out as a labour of love and compassion, a divine calling if you will, to help the abandoned and destitute. Pertubuhan Kebajikan Warga Emas dan Anak Yatim Nazareth in Malacca is now a community of 40 adult residents living in a rented double-storey house, but its growing needs are proving to be a challenge for its founder, Pastor Yovan Anthony.
