Please welcome our newest member of our Mission Moroto family Keem Veronica. She is lame and can’t stand up completely. I met her last week when I went with a mission team to her church. Veronica’s mother is dead and her father is not around. She has up to recently lived with her grandmother but with the drought it has become impossible for them to find food. I am hoping to take Veronica to Kampala one day to see if there is any kind of surgery that can be done to help her.

Last Saturday The Director of the police of Rupa came to me to ask if I could take for sisters whose mother had just died. I told him I needed to pray about it because all of our houses are very full but he was so insistent that these girls could not survive without us that I finally said yes and today they brought the girls to me.  So please welcome to the Mission Moroto family

Pastor Grace, a local pastor with many contacts throughout the villages, over the last several months was blessed to interrupt the trafficking of and/or rescue from starvation 27 children and July 18, 2022 she brought them home to live at Mission Moroto. By pure grace there were 9 boys and we “just happened” to have 9 boys beds available and there were 18 girls and we “just happened” to have 18 girl beds available. You all are greatly loved. ❤ Here is a wonderful video by Sydnee Bruenn of their arrival at Mission Moroto.

Welcome baby Itosike Nakudi Grace! She is the sister of two of our boys, Albert and Napan Thomas. When we rescued Thomas and Albert their grandmother wanted to keep Grace because she couldn’t imagine being without all of her grandchildren but recently Raiders attack her village and killed one of the relatives and the grandmother had to run away with Grace.  Grace is malnourished so we could really use your prayers. ?

STOWAWAY ? Welcome Nawairi Tuliana to our family. When Mama Rebekah returned from the U.S. on February 2nd, she noticed this cute girl among her other pre-teen girls and assumed she was one of the new rescues shortly before she left to the U.S. for Christmas. Finally, the other day, Nawairi sheepishly approached Rebekah and Simon, our project manager, and trembling said, “I must confess, I was all alone and I sneaked into Mission Moroto while you were gone and I felt I should be honest and come forward.” Rebekah smiled broadly and said, “You are already part of our family. Would you like me to take your photo and make it official?” Nawairi threw her arms around Rebekah saying “Yes! Yes!” Welcome home Nawairi. You are greatly loved. ❤

RESCUE #144

Welcome to the family Dorothy Lokuge Inwa!

Rebekah met her mother couple months ago when she was visiting their village. Her mother had recently been horribly beaten by her brother which caused an infection in her broken hip. 

Rebekah took her to the hospital and she improved a little but recently Rebekah was told she has lost complete use of that leg and no longer can feed Dorothy. 

She begged Rebekah to take Dorothy and she agreed wholeheartedly. We have also taken some food to the mother and the grandmother.

Dorothy is now home at Mission Moroto

Andrew’s father was very abusive and Andrew was injured in many different ways so his aunt took him and brought him to Rebekah.
