Welcome to the family Atim Flavia!

Atim came home to live at Mission Moroto after Rebekah had noticed that a few of the girls were saving apart a portion of their dinner every night and giving it to Atim who was a friend of theirs.

One day the girls finally got up enough courage to approach Rebekah and inform her that Atim was orphaned and living on the street. She had been going village to village looking for a place to stay.

Rebekah immediately told the girls that Atim could come and stay with her friends as part of the family at Mission Moroto

Welcome to the family Boiyel Abraham!

Boiyel is the brother of one of our earlier rescues, Dorothy Lokuge Inowa. Rebekah met their mother when she was visiting their village. Their mother had 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 Rebekah was told she has lost complete use of that leg and no longer feed the children.

She begged Rebekah to take Dorothy and she agreed wholeheartedly. Rebekah was not aware that Boiyel was also in need of a home and had been wandering the streets searching for food. Once he finally returned to their grandmother, she brought him to Rebekah and he found his home at Mission Moroto. Rebekah continues to regularly provide any food and supplies she can spare to the mother and the grandmother of these two precious children.

Boiyel is now home at Mission Moroto

Kem and his brother Adome were found by one of the Mission Moroto team members lying next to their mothers grave barely clinging to life. The only other people in their village was their blind grandmother and one other very ill person. Kem was unable to walk or crawl due to the sores on his hands and feet from jiggers, a very common parasite in Africa. His Brother, Adome, was extremely ill from malaria and was hardly able to breathe.

As soon as Rebekah was made aware of the situation she borrowed a motorcycle and rushed over as soon as she could. Adome was immediately rushed to the hospital for life saving IV treatment and Kem spent several days under Rebekah’s direct care to carefully and painstakingly remove all the jiggers from his body. This is a very painful and long process but after about two weeks of consistent care and God’s grace, both boys were up and playing with the other children.

They are now two of the happiest and loving children at Mission Moroto.

By the Grace of God and obedient hands, these boys can grow and live in a safe and healthy environment.
