Let me introduce you to one of the widows in our program. Her name is Selei. She was the 4th wife of her husband. When her husband died, as the youngest wife, she was left with nothing. She now has no husband, no cow or goat, and no land to farm. She has no way to generate income to feed her four precious young children.
However, she has two things now that she didn't have before she became a widow. Thanks to the outreach of the Oloserian church plant, she now has FAITH in Christ. And now, chosen to be one of the first widows in our new Widow Program, she has HOPE. I have slowly been building a relationship with Selei and have gained her TRUST.
We were recently able to help her with medicine for her youngest child, and she was so very grateful. I look forward to the day when I can tell Selei that someone has chosen to sponsor her!
