We found Nessie, a
child of a homeless family, begging to support
the family. They have been
homeless since the floods of 2000 when their land and mud hut was
washed away. We were able to get land and a
garden spot from the chief who was the pastor’s
father. We were then able to build a hut similar to
the ones surrounding them. The dress Nessie has
on and the one I am holding are part of the
clothing we were able to buy for the family. We were
also able to give and leave enough money behind to
feed the family until March or April of 2006,
when they get their maize (corn) crop in. By then
they should be self-sufficient once again and
back on their feet!
