Diary
entry on the 26th May, 2000 (In Rita Pam's own words) :
"A great miracle!
I lost my bag on the 25th with essential papers inside, I was afraid for then I thought a burglar would take all the things
inside. I had a prayer book on St. Therese of Lisieux. I found the bag lying neatly on a reservoir after I had prayed 25 Hail
Marys and 1 Our Father and I recited the Chaplet of Divine Mercy 2 times. Jesus Christ, I love you deeply. I love you O Lord.
You have never forsaken me"
The above is an excerpt from Rita Pam's yet-to-be released eBook "Journey of a Messenger" This book
takes stories, miracles, charitable activities, visions, etcetera from Rita's diary of 10 years... she tells of how her journey
with the Lord begun and even gives glimpses into some of the things you're yet to know about this humble servant of God.

Yes! Friends, you guessed right. I'm referring to JESUS CHRIST... My beautiful Saviour
and Spouse. Was listening to Delirious' song, "History Maker" this past Thursday and my heart fell in love, all
over again. This time, more powerful, deeper, I just cannot find the right words to describe my beautiful JESUS. Oh God! This
feeling... it cannot be put to words! I just wish I could expose my heart to the world, let everyone see it for themselves,
how my heart burns for my beloved Saviour! There are countless reasons I'm this crazy for JESUS. I'm passionate about making Him known and loved throughout
the world. To bring Him to those who do not know Him. A lot of people cannot differentiate between knowing about JESUS and
knowing JESUS. Sure, Church is filled with people who come, sing, dance, praise, pray but how many truly, really, deeply have
an intimate relationship with the LORD? You say you've got a healthy relationship with JESUS, yet, as a husband and father,
you fail in your role as a husband to your wife and father to your children. Your family's scared of you, you shut them out
of your world, the life in the house is gone! You say you love JESUS, as a wife, you make life unbearable for your husband
and your children. You say you love JESUS? Why do your parents keep complaining about you as a child? You say you love JESUS,
yet you betray a friend's secret and cause commotion wherever you go, hurting people on purpose and tearing people apart;
then you come to church in your best robes - you clap, sing, dance, pray, praise, etc you're reverent for that hour or two;
then you return home and go back to your old ways! And then when people look at you and analyze your lifestyle, they ask "
Is this chap truly a Christian?" Read More
Monique K., asks: "I understand
Christ encouraged us in our walk of life and I also understand there is a big reward ahead waiting for us if we go through
these persecutions and come out triumphantly but what if there are no signs of any improvement in your situation? I mean,
my son has been an unbeliever for so many years and I fear for my grand children, they may grow, not knowing God. I have been
praying for over 9 years now, I see no progress in my situation.. So how am I supposed to hold on and keep going when I am
facing pure torture. My son has banned me from seeing my grand children ‘cause he fears I may convert them to Christianity.
Please, I need your candid advice on this ‘cause I am about to lose hope.
Rita Pam replies: Thank you Monique for this very honest letter. I am sorry about what
you are passing through and want to assure you that God has been with you every step of the way. Yes! It's been 9 years but
I wouldn't advise you to give up and let ......

"I wanted something unique,
something that would express my heart passionately and though this song doesn't do justice ‘cause I simply cannot find
the words to describe my eternal lover, Jesus" Rita told us over the weekend, referring to her song "In Your Presence".
Some people have described this song as a rival to Rita's song "Beautiful" which is also a love song to God. "Beautiful"
appears on her first album of the same name, it was released in 2007 under El-Sound Studios. "In Your presence"
appears on "Anna", Rita Pam's yet-to-be-released second album.
She went on to say: "I love worship songs and Hymns but I also love songs that have
depth, that express deep feelings for Jesus. I see Jesus as my best friend, as my lover and this is how I address Him in my
songs. This is how it will always be" Read More
Quit asking what God can do for you and start asking what you can do for God.
Tue 8th Jun, 2010
Too many people are carried away by their problems and the difficulties of this life and have made "God,
what will you do for me?" an anthem! Every place you turn, you find someone's head down, and they're complaining! Asking
God "Why?" I am sympathetic towards peoples' situations and whatever it is they may be going through. I have immense
compassion for the poor, the broken-hearted and the lonely.. By all means, I want to do something to change and touch the
lives of the broken... the ones the Lord will entrust to me and the ones I come in contact with. But I admire the broken-hearted
people who choose not to complain in the face of suffering! Grumbling is totally wrong... you accept good gifts from God and
thank Him for it, why not accept trials and thank God for them as well? You want to keep on swimming in royalty? That's not
possible, my friend. Before you can enter Heaven, you've got to be ‘tried and tested' and oh! You've got to pass. This
is what the saints had to go through, had to endure before receiving the reward: Eternity! Some of you might probably sigh,
after reading this and say "How can I persevere in the face of suffering when I am likely to lose everything?",
you aren't the only one... people have lost families in floods, wars, to diseases, etc... and I definitely know of a good
number of these people who've offered up that suffering to God and have refused to complain, grumble or question God.
Will you do the same or are you just going to
sit in your shell asking questions forever? You are reading these words from one who has been through trials herself. I have endured a lot of persecutions just
because I've made up my mind to live an upright, moral life. Society has a way of impacting people.. I have never been impacted
negatively, I have never lived life a certain way just ‘cause I thought it was cool to live that way. I have never been
a victim of peer pressure. I don't live the way society wants me to live; I live the way God wants me to live. People might
see my life as boring and all that but I know whom I'm living for and will keep pressing on. My ultimate desire is to see
Jesus , face to face! Yes! I've been through trials and have never wavered and I want to urge you to do same. Instead of asking
"Why?", choose to be happy! Choose to accept, with open arms, whatever God has for you and He will be so delighted
and bestow on you more blessings, beyond your imagination! Manuel Lozano Garrido was struck by paralysis for most of his life, he never questioned why? Those
who knew him, say, he always had a happy countenance and never lost his sense of humour. Today, Manuel is known both far and
wide and will be beatified on the 12th June, 2010. St. Rita of Cascia was refused entry into the Monastery, she never gave
up. In the end, she was rewarded. When St. Anthony's sermons were met with rejection, he didn't lose hope; stories have it
that he begun preaching, instead, to the fishes and this act, was what drew peoples' attention. When St. Therese of Lisieux
wanted to be in the Monastery at a young age, she was refused but she never gave up and yes! She was rewarded, she did infact
enter the Monastery at age 15.... Read More
Hope For The Broken -

Rita Pam Tarachi, the founder of the Springfield Hope Network has founded yet another Charity: "Hope For The Broken",

WEEKEND MESSAGE FROM
RITA PAM TARACHI
Sat 15th May, 2010
Dear friends,
I Hope
this message finds you well. The
Orphans, so far, are doing great. If you've been following my updates on Twitter, you'd know I did talk of a child who was
thrown in a well by his very own mother! This infant was discovered and he was rescued. He did have scratches here and there
and a few bruises but he's faring well now. Lois (The Orphanage head) told me it took two ladders to get the baby out. I was
moved once again as I looked at his frail body and couldn't help but wonder, what are young ladies becoming these days? Better
put, what are ladies becoming these days? ‘cause this doesn't apply to just young ladies but ladies in general. I've
spoken to youths in the past about the topic of Morality and I think there's a need to re-visit this yet again! Ladies, you know engaging in sex outside of marriage
is immoral and impure and a completely dirty thing in the sight of God, you know doing this would lead to pregnancy, so why
even go into it in the first place? If the guy you're dating insists, there's only one thing to do - LEAVE HIM! Yes! Run very
far, leave him. Better to be alone, with your virginity intact than to be with a man and keep swimming in sin. I know this
is a topic many shy away from but if we leave this issue un-discussed, then who's going to set these ladies right for Christ's
sake? If we keep avoiding this topic, how then can we make a change?! Some Orphans are the result of some women's mistakes.
You keep moving from one mistake to another. First off, you have sex outside of marriage, then you try to abort the child,
when that seems impossible, you carry the pregnancy anyway and decide to kill the baby after he/she is born... you throw him/her
into a well, pit, gutter, etc, strangle him/her or even burn the child. No heart! Yet God still forgives when you turn to
Him. I am not out to judge, condemn
or point accusing fingers! Only God can judge. What I am saying is, when the ladies out there learn to have discipline and
live by the Holy Bible and abstain from sex until after marriage, the Orphanages won't be flooded with babies who've been
dumped. Do you know how painful it is growing up without parents? But these Orphans live with it, and they keep asking questions!
They want to know where their family is, now tell me, when these questions come up, what do we tell them? "Actually,
your mother dumped you in a well" How would that make the child feel? To put an end to a problem, we've got to start from the root, meaning total abstinence
= Less abandoned babies. Think about this. This message should serve to encourage you and not hurt you. Death comes all too
easily these days. You don't know the day the Lord would demand your Soul and because you do not know, you should live a Holy
life... always adhering to the teachings in the Holy Bible....

RITA SPEAKS ON HER SONG
"ANNA" AND LIFE AS A SONGWRITER
Sun 2nd May, 2010
Though Rita Pam's song "Anna" is still un-released as it appears on her second album,
recorded at 3D Studios, Zaria, the preview is on her Official MySpace Page here www.myspace.com/ritaakpegi and people who've
listened are amazed at how so different this song is from Rita's other songs yet rich and well recorded. We got Rita to finally
talk about this song and we know, of course, inspiration could be spontaneous but what prompted her to pen this song in the
manner that she did? For those knowing this song for the first time, the song talks of a widower who cannot move on after
the loss of his bride "Anna" which happens to be the title of the song. Rita tells us what prompted her to write
the song:
"I was quite excited
that I'd begun recording for my second project last year (2009) and the new studio I'd been in was great and Sunny (The Producer)
is a bundle of talent, he takes what's in your heart and puts it.... Read More
NEW MESSAGE FROM RITA PAM
TARACHI
Fri 30th Apr, 2010
Dearest friends,
It's been a while. I never thought I'd be this busy and even forget to update on the website
but I did make out time to write something to you all. Wow! I've been getting responses to my teaching "True friendships",
I never had an inkling that this teaching would impact this far and deep but it has and all glory goes to my best friend,
JESUS CHRIST. Well, work at the Orphanage has been tough...
the current project at our hands is building a permanent site for the Orphanage so they can relocate. We cannot do this alone.
We need you friends! And so I urge you to donate as much as you can to make this project a reality; the Orphans count on you
a lot, they depend on you to make this dream come true. They look up to God to help, let us be God's instruments to them and
make this happen. We can do it! Please, reach out today... they need your help... Read More
PUBLIC STATEMENT FROM
THE SPRINGFIELD HOPE NETWORK
Sun 11th Apr, 2010
Brethren,
The "Photos"
page on this website has been deleted due to so many reasons. Rita Pam has always emphasized one thing: Do not see her but
JESUS... Your sole focus should be on the Saviour. You should, after going through this website, fall in love with JESUS -
deeply and passionately. Therefore, there would be no more "Photos", people have emphasized this too much and have
forgotten why Rita Pam is here in the first place! So we have taken it down and hope you all understand. A second thing we would like to emphasize is, Rita Pam CANNOT get
in touch with any one who visits this website, personally. She is in no way interested in dating anyone... and men should
especially take note as men could use pictures for different reasons: Rita has NEVER dated ANY of her fans or people who have
downloaded her photos and that is very unlikely to happen. Life isn't all about dating, we seriously hope men would stop pestering
her as she is not interested. She has got standards and principles she lives by. Rita Pam's attention is solely on the Orphanage;
she wants to lead a very quiet life and we would appreciate it if she is not considered a celebrity and only seen as an instrument
in GOD's hands. Don't forget to
follow Rita Pam on Twitter to get updates: www.twitter.com/ritapamtarachi. Thank you all and Blessings! The Springfield Hope Network

RITA
SPENDS EASTER WITH ORPHANS
Mon 5th April, 2010 It was an immense honour for me to be able to
do something special for the beautiful Orphans on Easter Sunday - 4th April, 2010. I went along with my friend, Jeff (At his
request) and i was glad he was able to see what i see at the Orphanage each time i'm there. We both had a long Conversation
with Lois, the Orphanage head. She told us alot of things about each of the children and terms of adoption... some of them
were brought in after their parents divorced and were uncapable of looking after them, but most of them are children of the
Mentally-unwell. Read More
Rita Pam's second Single "What the world cannot give" is set for Official release. See it, Click Here
I've got some of the most
amazing friends on the planet! Beautiful Individuals who continue to Inspire me each and every single day! When you've got
true friends, you are happy, you are assured, you are fulfilled. Our friends may not always be perfect but remember that they
too are human and tend to slip every once in a while. Just like the air we breathe, good and faithful friends are gifts from
the Lord. While growing, I never
had friends I could call ‘Faithful', I don't even think I had friends. These were individuals who were too happy to
let me down when I needed them most and then years back, I realized something... people pray for good health, success in examinations,
wisdom, etcetera, it was totally okay for me to pray for good friends and be happy once again and so I knelt in prayer and
asked! Yes, I asked. I told God I wanted friends who can stand by me always, in every situation. Friends who weren't... Read More
NEW MESSAGE FROM RITA
PAM
Wed 3rd Mar, 2010
Dearest friends!
I am so happy
to tell you it's been so good at the Orphanage so far and every time I see the smiles on the faces of the Children, my heart
swells with joy! This is what I love doing and if these little ones are happy, I am happy! Wherever you are.. Whatever you're
engrossed with.. I want you to stop right now, just stop and think of these little ones, do something special for them. Reach
out to them, touch them. I have often heard it said "If God hasn't blessed me, how can I bless others?" You mustn't
have something to give away something! In your poverty, you can give love, you can give prayers, your time, your care, etcetera. Read More
