Foster’s dream comes true

Foster, age 14, has quite a story to tell!

When we returned to Flushununu village, I asked some youth how our lessons have helped them. Foster was eager to share, “Since my parents came to your programs a few months ago, my father has stopped beating my mom and I have never seen him drinking again. He would always come home late and they would argue all night and it always ended up with my mom crying after being beaten up by him. I was always scared with what was happening in our family and I thought there was no hope for us and that we would always be like that. But luckily, I saw that they both came to the lessons here and since that day I knew that something definetely change. My father now works hard to pay for school fees for us and provide us with all our needs at home. I do not know what they were taught in those lessons, but I assure you, it was life-changing. We now live a happy life that I always dreamt of. I am so thankful to God for sending this team here to deliver the wonderful news. Even myself, I learnt so much about the ‘Forgiving Father’ lesson and I understand what that story is all about. I am happy to know that God loves us and cares for us all. Thank God for this ministry.”

Meet Makhumbo, father of 9

His Community is Amazed

Mary Hara, mother of 9, was about to leave her husband, Makhumbo and her 9 children because Makhumbo drinks every day and was not providing for the family. Mary was unable to do it by herself. Often they would have nothing to eat. Then Good Hope came “to town”. Makhumbo decided to attend the lessons and as he heard the messages was convicted in his heart of his wrong doing. The next day Makhumbo came to our teachings again. This time he heard the lesson of the “Forgiving Father”. God touched his heart and he silently receives Jesus christ as his personal Lord and Savior. Since that day (now 3 months ago) he has stopped drinking and is buying food and clothing for his family. The whole community is amazed to see the change in Makhumbo. Mary gives thanks and praise to God for saving her family.
