A new beginning with a bed and a stove

A new beginning with a bed and a stove

The family is very grateful for the help they have received! The mother says that her son used to sleep on the floor because their bed was unusable, and they often had sleepless nights because she was afraid he would be bitten by an insect. They were forced to get rid of their old bed because it was unusable, and now they are grateful to be sleeping comfortably without fear. They are also grateful because they used to cook with firewood, and now they have a stove, a gas tank, and pots for cooking. "It's a blessing to cook on a new stove and pots. I am very happy and grateful. When I cook, I thank God even more, as I do every day, for being attentive to our needs, and we praise Him because He provides for each one of them in His time," says the mother. The family prays for each of the donors and asks for health, salvation, and well-being for each one in the name of Jesus. They say: Thank you!
