Your Gift Enables the Church to Serve Vulnerable Mothers and Their Babies
A message from the pastor
Dear Friends,
I am happy to write this letter in order to say thanks for your gift to our Survival program.
Our program started in October 2022. After a long time praying to God for a way to reduce infant and mother mortality rates, we are thanking God and you for making it possible for the Survival program to be implemented at our church.
In brief, our region has been affected with drought for some time. The abundance of sunshine affects our participants and entire community. The drought causes conditions that lead to poverty which more greatly impacts the lives of children and pregnant mothers. We have experienced death among mothers and children. We hope through this partnership with our church will help our mothers and their children.
We are grateful for your prayers and for the guidance we have received. Thank you for your help and efforts to release children from poverty in Jesus’ name. May God bless you.
Rev. Celestin
