Kpaytuo Village broke our hearts to see all these malnourished children.
The HOPELESSNESS in the eyes of a child is so incredibly sad.
This little boy has kwashiorkor which is malnutrition caused by protein deficiency. The good news is that he is on Hope for the Nation’s Feeding program at Mama Leweah’s house, where he will get all the nutrition he will need to become healthy. Provision of Hope has partnered with Hope for the Nations to help fund the nutritious supplements these children need. Hope for the Nations first asked us to visit this village in 2008. Since then we’re feeding as many as we possibly can.
THANK GOD FOR THIS FEEDING CENTER. THESE CHILDREN WILL LIVE AND NOT DIE!!

LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE NUTRITION MAKES
Jackerline Meatee in 2008 was very sick needing so much treatment. After getting the proper nutrition and care she is healthy, strong and energetic. The second photo was taken in August 2012. One by one we can make a difference in the lives of these precious children.
Millions of children under the age of 5, still die every year due to preventable diseases. It does not have to be that way. Not in today’s world. I left there knowing, there is still more that we can do.
More distressed children coming for treatment and supplements.
Every child loved THE STORY OF HENRIETTA CATERPILLAR as told by author Kristine Riley.
Happy faces carrying in the supplies. “EVERY CHILD IS A PRECIOUS TREASURE!”
“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these” Words of Jesus

I have to quote Mother Teresa’s words….”We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.
It REALLY does feel that way at times. One by one we keep reaching more. You are ALL A PART OF THIS WONDERFUL WORK!!!

Thanks for the news Karen, you and your helpers are making a difference one child at a time! I am reminded of Mother Teresa, she called herself a little pencil in the hand of God, and look what HE wrote with her life. You and gifted helpers are doing the same. God is writing hope through you, he is demonstrated love, and wisdom, and character! Thanks again for what you are doing. Angelika
