Hope 4 Kids/Mission Uganda: Who Will Feed the Children?
  |
Feeding Karamojong Children Hope 4 Kids International is attempting to feed 420 karamojong children daily who were once dying in the streets of starvation and poisoned food found in rubbish pits. Many churches (including Lord of Life) and individuals have been sending money so they can continue this expensive, but top priority project. Others include teenagers like Kim who with the help of her mother provides a night out for parents and uses the donations she receives for watching the children to help feed the karamojong. Liz, another teenager, stands outside her church every Sunday collecting recyclables to sell so she can give to these children. Jodi and Carolyn have been sending emails to their friends. Slowly the word is getting out and people are responding! There is still much to do. Here is information from Pastor Ruth: "On Wednesday I broke down and cried. Every organization and department rushes to provide food for the refugees and when we sit in meetings every one of them is concerned about overflow of items or duplication of services but none of them is seeing the plight of the street children who end up eating poisoned food as they rampage the rubbish tins if they are not attended to. (Although Ruth constantly tells these organizations about the children) Is it about them wanting to be seen by the whole world as having saved the refugees? Is it about hitting the headlines in newspapers? How I wish they could know how important it is for the King of Kings to know them and to see in secret the good work they offer to the needy. . . Somewhere on this planet God has people whom He will use to make this program continue. Please deliver our heartfelt appreciation to all the people God has used to avail funds to sustain this program. Their reward is in heaven-when we meet Jesus they will be amazed to see all these beautiful faces shining with joy and Jesus telling them "thank you for being my heart and hands to these children." Lord of Life's benevolence dollars have supported this feeding program. Click here to view a video message from Kent Dirks about the important work being done. |
