Please pray for one of our New Hope girls today. Yesterday during orientation, we overheard her mom saying she might need to give her away in order for her to survive. The mom has already had to give away one of her daughters. Her husband died from AIDS four months ago and she has no employable skills or family to watch her children while she works. Food is scarce and she fears they will starve to death. The mom is also sick but we do not know with what…very likely AIDS as well. Please help us figure out the best way to rescue this mom from this terrible decision. My boys, of course, have resolved the decision by saying to adopt her but…
Her name is Johanna.
Thank you…
Love, Chris and Tim
And so it began...
