The poor will eat and be satisfied; they who seek the LORD will praise him.
~Psalm 22:26
This is from a school feeding program in Niger. Over 150 students are fed two hot meals a day. They also receive solid instruction and have access to school books. These children are visibly stronger, fatter and happier than our visits last year as the program was just starting; the health agent says he sees a lot less injuries, cuts and scrapes from the children now. They are all too busy attending school!!
The mothers of the children also get health teaching about how to keep their families healthy and free from illness. We desire to see this village grow holistically and take care of one another and grow in their knowledge and understanding. We pray Jesus would appear to this Muslim village in dreams and visions and make a mark on the heart of these people!
