Help that Boy Grow...


This week our friends at Amazing Grace Children's Home started digging a well for clean water on their new land.  A Lahash servant team member wrote a little about the water project in her blog.  The short story: these kids need clean water.  

The boy pictured on the top left of the above water picture is our Sebur.  
Our boy needs water and we want to help.
We are also investing a lot into our upcoming trip and the building fund.  But water.  
Water is important.  I began praying specifically for ways that we could help bring water.
For days I'd been praying.
And then I remembered...  

I remembered the beautiful woman with a head full of grey who came up to me during a recent trip to MD.  She grabbed ahold of me and said, "This is for that boy that you showed us- get him something good that will help him grow."  Then she slipped me a fifty dollar bill.

We are taking books with us to help start a small library at the Children's Home.  Today our first book arrived: "Heroes in Black History"  Our friend in MD paid for that book.  And now she's helping to give our friends water.  

Thank you for being part of loving the vulnerable with us.
