Michael Angelo Aydelotte was born in a village in the Upper East Region of Ghana. By the grace of God, a loving family in the United States brought him home, and he was given an education and a future.
But a quiet voice kept asking, "What about the children who are still in need?" Michael answered that call by going back to the village where he was born. There he built Agape Refuge, a school where children receive an education, daily care, and the love of Jesus.
"We love because He first loved us." (1 John 4:19)

Michael leads Agape Refuge alongside his wife, Claudia, who is studying to become a nurse. Together they are raising their daughters, Zuri and Zendya, in the shadow of the school their daddy built.
