Greetings!

 

It has been 2 months since baby Peter entered a pediatric intensive care unit.  Peter was 6 months old and only 6 or 7 pounds.  He couldn't sit up, giggle or smile.  He couldn't do anything babies his age could.  Peter was starving and he was diagnosed with tuberculosis.  Unfortunately, Peter has spent more time in the hospital because he was not responding to some of the antibiotics the way he should.  

 

Currently Peter is on the road to a healthy and happy life because someone like you took an interest in him and sponsored his family through Africa Family Rescue.

 

As you can see, the difference between Peter before and after family sponsorship is nothing short of miraculous.  Family sponsorship includes health care, food, education and micro-business development.  The AFR program takes a family making less than $10 a month and gives them the opportunities they need to survive and thrive in a rural setting.

 

Please take this opportunity to consider sponsoring a family like Peters.  There are orphaned children who are starving and widowed parents who can't feed them.  We trust that as God moves on your heart, you will find a place in our organization to care for those who are facing some of the most significant famine in their generation.

 

Family sponsorship is $70 a month for a 3 year commitment.  Families will become self-sufficient and have the opportunity to mentor another family through the program.  Please write Melody at melody@pahlow.com or call her at 630.742.7635 to find out more today. 

Looking for a few good...CHURCHES!

AFR is looking for TWO churches here in the USA 

to partner with TWO Ugandan village churches

 

One of the most exciting things about AFR's Village plan, is the connection between American Churches and Ugandan churches.  AFR offers an American church an opportunity to serve widows, orphans, and pastors in a very unique way.  Imagine your church, connecting with a Ugandan church in the bush, where each person in your church could have an important role in their future self-sufficiency!  

 afr plan

AFR has many different levels of opportunities, for example, your church can help build an church building, a parsonage, a latrine, a new home for a widow, build a school, build a clinic, install water wells, pay for a pastor's salary, and/or sponsor an entire family!  As your church builds relationships with these precious people, AFR will offer two week long mission trips to visit them and do construction projects!  All this with the goal in mind to help an entire community become SELF-SUFFICIENT in THREE YEARS.
