About us

In 2004, like a good shepherd taking care of his flocks, Rev. Cassule while on his routine community visitation suddenly noticed a multitude of people wailing about a harsh punishment against 2 children (Siblings) accused of witchcraft – their hands were being burned with fire by relatives. Without a moment’s hesitation Rev. Cassule intervened on behalf of those children and took them to the authorities. Unfortunately there was no system in place to accommodate the children. After failed attempts to take the kids to a government subsidized shelter, only one option remained: care for the children himself until they
received the necessary medical attention. Two days later when Rev. Cassule went back to the community he learned that the subject family had moved away from the neighborhood. Rev. Cassule became the sole caregiver of the 2 young children in his own home. Shortly thereafter and upon observing the community’s
needs he started a drop-in centre to help street children. His attention and dedication to helping those children in a very poor community of Luanda (Kikolo), gave birth to the now known “Projecto Social Pequena Semente (Little Seed)”. Today Pequena Semente is a Leading Humanitarian Organization based in Angola dealing with child poverty and developing child centered programs to combat child poverty and abuse while o”ering tools to prepare them for the future.
