We support three children as part of our church ministry: Amshika in India (a severely disabled girl we met during our mission trip to India in 2017), Bedline (a 12 year old girl in Haiti whom we have sponsored since she was 5) and Innocent in Uganda, part of the Watoto movement in that country.
Correspondence from Uganda has been sadly lacking over the past two years, so we were especially pleased to receive three letters this week from Innocent! This teenager is working hard and enjoying both school life and church life. The Watoto community is clearly a lot of fun, as he speaks about football competitions and talent shows (his talent being dancing.) Innocent’s aim is to be a business man and he enjoys learning about sound technology, working in his church with the sound technicians.
In all letters, Innocent writes with a deep gratitude for the church’s sponsorship, which enables him to have a good education and a stable background in the Watoto community. It is easy for us to forget just what a difference our monthly gift makes to him, but these letters remind us of the real benefits which sponsorship bring. Please keep praying for Innocent and for all the children whom Watoto help.
