MOVE

I know I have been posting over and over about donations.  I know sometimes when that happens, I myself have even been known to just skip over these types of things.  I am asking you to not skip over!
The two projects that we support now help to start schools, feeding centers, clinics and build wells in areas that are in DIRE need!
The children I just visited literally walk miles to and from school.  They don't have running water and get their clean water from Mbewau (one of the projects we support), they don't understand the simple medical things that are every day life to us.  I witnessed a funeral for a 7 month old baby girl, an unnecessary funeral, the cause of death...JAUNDICE!  If you are a mother chances are your child was born with a case of jaundice, whether slight or severe.  It was treated and your child is healthy and active today.  This child's mother didn't understand that it needed the ultra violet light to help its body, she thought it was burning her child and stopped using it.  This choice ultimately led to the untimely death of an innocent child.
I witnessed a child who had scraped his leg.  If you have children that are boys, or know of child boys you know they do that quite often.  If untreated and you have poor hygiene, it can quickly become life threatening.  I listened to my friend, one of our teammates, who helped clean and bandage this child's infected leg, silently sob as she retold the pain he was in.
I watched women carry buckets of water on their head.  I didn't know where these buckets were going, but chances are they were walking several miles.
I witnessed children learning!  Eagerly learning!  And having a place they could go to learn!
I witnessed children eating, and not just eating, but healthy meals that were provided for them twice a day!  Sometimes this was the only meal they received.  The porridge was bland and they got rice or yugali and beans for lunch, but never once did I hear a complaint!  I saw happy, smiling, grateful little faces!
I witnessed a mother of 5, widowed at the age of 24 smiling and content in her mud hut, eager to show off her crop of maze...what they lived off of.
I have witnessed all of these things and more first hand.  I had a heart for Africa before, but I now have a burning sense of responsibility.  I pray for them, and think about them daily, and I yearn to help them.
Please help Imani in our efforts to continue Mbewau, and to help the new location Masai Corner and Healing Faith in Uganda.  These projects are important and will make a difference in lives.
I ask that you think about those few dollars you spend daily on really nothing of value.  A coke, a burger, a candy bar...all this change adds up.
The M.O.V.E (Motivate others, seek Opportunity for change, use your Voice for the Lord, and Experience God's grace), is all about raising awareness for these projects.  We are trying to get the word out to those who don't know them, to help them raise support enough to build what they need when they need it, to be able to offer the medicine needed when needed, to be able to feed the hungry, and educate the uneducated!
Please join us in our efforts to make this happen!  We still have a little bit of money to raise with only 9 days left.  I have no fear though, because God gave us this vision.  This event is only for His glory and to help His children.  I know that thru my trust in Him and FAITH in Him, His perfect will, will be done!
