We are sharing with you the journal entries of Esther, the Director of Hearth to Hearth Ministries.  This journal consists of her thoughts about the trip she is on  to visit orphanages in Africa.

February 3

This day started out well at about 4:00 a.m. when I arose to try to finish up last minute details, such as proofing documents and getting them sent off to the Board and Executive Committee, Setting up polls on the Board website so Board members can vote on various issues, responding to last minute emails, giving instructions to George as to how to handle mail, etc., in my absence.
We planned to leave the house at 10:00 but knew we have allowed plenty of margin, so we ended up leaving at 10:38 and stopped by the bank for cash. That’s when I realized I’d forgotten the $50.00 battery charger we’d gone out of our way to purchase the day before. It was still plugged in at home, charging the battery for the video camera. We made a mad dash back home to retrieve it, then headed to our daughter’s in Brighton.
George had taken five pieces of baggage to our daughter, Melinda’s house, on Friday where he met Vicki who had brought two more, plus the cash people had sent her for the trip. Melinda already had those items loaded into her vehicle when we arrived, so we loaded two more, plus my two heavy carry-ons, ate the lunch Melinda had prepared for us, stopped by Radio Shack to purchase a firewire (to transfer video footage from the camera to my laptop) and headed for the airport.
Half way there, I realized we had left my pillow and jacket back in our car at Melinda’s. I do not recall forgetting important items on any of my three prior trips to Africa. I certainly hoped that we weren’t setting any precedents for the trip!
The flight from Detroit to Amsterdam was without incident. I had a very quiet seatmate and was able to sleep most of the way.

Did you ever notice that those who have the least are the most grateful? When I ask the administrators of Hearth to Hearth Ministries’ Orphanages how they are doing, they always give an answer like the one I received the other day: “Life was not so bad  generally.  We are very happy for your prayers that we are still among the living though financial crisis has affected the whole world, mostly Africa/Uganda.” Instead of complaining about their problems, they are grateful to be alive.

This was taken from the new issue of Spotlight on Orphans Extra that tells about the work that Hearth to Hearth Ministries is doing for African orphans and Orphanages.

Calm is returning in this country of ours. The international community is really concerned with Kenya. They are pushing for a quick resolution of the political crisis. The parties concerned have not yet agreed on what type of coalition to form. Yesterday the US secretary of state Condeleeza Rice came over to deliver the message of the US president George Bush who is on a tour to Africa but not visiting Kenya.
We hope there will be peace soon. But seemingly the various tribes will not go back to different tribes’ regions.
The economy of this country has fallen rapidly. We are affected so much. The prices of various commodities in the markets and the supermarkets are very high. Hunger is looming. We haven’t been able to purchase fuel to use for cooking. Gas is very expensive. Three times the normal price. We do not know what to do.

African Orphans

Boy shot trying to feed his brothers and sisters and I am to blame I am reprinting this from Spotlight on Orphans Extra.

Mr. Richard was a church elder in a local Seventh-day Adventist Church. He and his wife were blessed with seven children. He contracted the AIDS virus
through a blood transfusion way back in 1996. Then he unknowingly infected his
wife. They both died in March, just around the time Esther, Vicki and Steve visited us here in Africa. Mr. Richard left behind seven children.
The local church tried to support the family but due to abject poverty in Africa they could not continue with the support. The firstborn boy, aged sixteen, came to
me and narrated his story. He wanted us to accept even two of his siblings into the Centre. At the age of sixteen he had become the sole breadwinner for his six siblings. It was too much for him. Unfortunately, we could not accept them into Hope for Children Center orphanage because of our financial capabilities.
Sadly enough, I read in one of the local newspapers just last month that the boy was shot dead by police officers in an exchange of fire during a bank robbery in Nairobi. I went to their home to confirm what I had read, thinking that the names could be similar. I met his thirteen-year-old sister who is his follower. She told me that her brother resorted to robbery in order to feed them. In fact, he was lured into it and that was his first attempt.
The boy is already buried and so in the family, the girl is now the sole breadwinner. We visited them last week while on missionary outreach with our orphans and took for them some little food. This is what she told us, which is just painful to me, “Pastor, I am very tired and hopeless, I have nowhere I can get food for our children. The future is completely dark for me. My siblings will soon die of starvation. The only option I have is to look for somebody who can marry me if he is promising to care for my siblings. It has to be soon, or else they’ll all die.”

Sixteen year old boy shot trying to feed his bothers and sisters. Now his sister will have to sell herself to feed them if no one will help. I feel responsible for this boys death because I have not done more. It only costs $30 a month to sponsor an orphan. Why didn’t I cover the $210 a month until sponsors could be found for these orphans.

Thanksgiving greetings from the hearts of the African orphans to your heart. How overwhelmed the orphans would be if they could for just one day see for themselves the bounty that most of us take for granted. And how overwhelmed we, the sponsors of the orphans, and we who have an interest in their well being, would be if we had to live for one day as they have had to live for most of their lives on the streets of the cities and villages in Africa! These orphans have lived without hope, and life without hope is a pitiful life indeed.

The orphans who have been blessed to have already been taken into one of the orphanages where their food and clothing and shelter are provided have been given hope–a gift of hope from someone who decided to sponsor an orphan and share their plenty with an orphan child who had nothing.

You who have sponsored one or more orphans have experienced the thrill, the joy of knowing that you have made a difference–a life and death difference–in the life of a child. Would those who have not yet had that experience, please think about it as you plan and prepare for this Thanksgiving season. Would you not like to do your part to feed the children who otherwise would go hungry? Your decision to sponsor an orphan will provide food, clothing and shelter for an orphan who would otherwise be hungry, near-naked and homeless, void of hope both for today and the future.

Sponsor an African orphan that is suffering because of poverty and enjoy a real Thanksgiving experience! Feed the children, and you will be “fed” yourself, filled with the joy of providing comfort and hope to one who has known little if any of either during their brief lives.

Blessings to you on behalf of Hearth to Hearth Ministries’ orphans and orphanages. Join volunteers in making a difference in the lives of orphans.

Dear Beloved in Christ,

I do humbly request to go thru the Orphan Homes as three facilitations to start with 30,

In three places we are planning. We have approached the Orphanages.ws. It has opened the doors for us tell about us a little. We do have the Children who were suffering with the AIDS/ HIV, deserted, street Children, the Children of the Prostituetes, poor and the handicapped, ill health father and the mother, Diabetes parents, Crippled parents, so on ,these were neglected by the society and the families those were in under the poverty line.There are many other people and the Children who were not in the protection of any family and the Institutions so far. We request you to see and look at the weeping eyes of the Children for the food, and be kind enough to help with.

If we are not able to take these advantages to help them with the nursing, they would be addicted for the Cigars, Liquors, and the other things. They themselves will destroy their lives. Now asking you to handle with ur kind arms. Do help now, grow the Child in the fear of the Lord, so that they would give and live for God.

In Truth

TA RACHEL
