Frequently asked questions.

  • Abide Well is a faith-based nonprofit focused on practical, relationship-driven ministry in Eswatini, Southern Africa. We build homes for vulnerable families, provide meals for schoolchildren through sustainable farming, and help reunite orphaned children with safe family members. We aim to make the love of Christ visible through action.

  • Eswatini is a small, landlocked country in Southern Africa—formerly known as Swaziland. Though small in size, it carries one of the highest rates of HIV in the world and faces serious poverty and food insecurity. It's a place often overlooked, but we believe it's exactly where Jesus calls us to serve

  • Building Hope is our newest initiative, launching in 2026. We’re working to reconnect children from local orphanages with safe family members by building or repairing homes—creating stable environments where children can thrive in family care again.

  • Since launching Abide Well, we’ve built dozens of homes and served thousands of meals in rural Eswatini. In 2025 alone, we plan to serve over 25,000 meals to schoolchildren through our feeding programs and build 4 new strong homes.

  • Abide Well was founded by Nathan and Tia, a husband-and-wife team originally from the U.S. They lived in Eswatini for several years and will return in 2026 to expand their ministry. The work is carried forward year-round by a dedicated Swazi team on the ground

  • Every dollar goes directly toward our programs—homebuilding materials, food for school meals, farming supplies, and wages for our local team. We’re committed to stewardship, transparency, and creating sustainable impact, not dependency.

  • We love partnering with like-minded individuals and churches! Reach out to us if you're interested in future opportunities to serve in person or remotely
