Eyerusalem is a little girl we stand as Family in the Gap for through Project HOPEFUL Awassa! She is in Ehtiopia and lives with her mom and dad. Our $30 a month helps her stay with her family and go to school etc...
Her mom has such a sweet personality, when Project HOPEFUL Awassa visited and brought gifts for all the FIG kids Emebet (Eyerusalem's mother) sat with a beautiful grace and enjoyed every single child's gift. She is in just about every picture of kids with their gifts. It's beautiful.
Her story is a tough one. Read a little bit about her and her family below. I encourage you to HELP! Her mom needs a surgery to better care for her child!
From Project HOPEFUL directors Greg and Charisa Knight, read more about them Here!
Remember Eyerusalem?
Her parents were injured when Eyerusalem was just 18 months old.
Somehow her father's motorcycle fuel tank caught fire and quickly spread in to the home igniting a kerosene can and sparked an explosion that burned her father badly and crippled her mother. He has recovered and is back to work but has scars and some enduring problems.
She was bedridden for a year and is now confined to this chair.
A mother despite her circumstances that is filled with such joy.
We need to raise funds asap for her.
We have the funds for the beginning already in Ethiopia but the hospital needed us to sign a contract that we would cover the funds for the whole amount before they would begin. We told our friends in Ethiopia to go ahead and sign that contract IN FAITH that the funds will come for this sweet momma.
And now we need your help!
The cost of the surgery with the doctor, medicine and hospital is to be around $1,900.
The gift of her being to walk again and fully take care of her daughter is PRICELESS.
We have sent scriptures from you to Emebet and Zewdu went to share them with her and to offer encouragement and prayer.
Zewdu shared this:
I have told all the messages and encouragements by each name and she was crying as I telling about your commitment. Her daughter, Eyerusalem was also at home and enjoyed our visit. One word Emebet said at last is that" I thank my God for giving you around here and abroad to support me. If God doesn't brought you all in my life, I would be history leaving my child for hardship in life much worse than mine. Your visit, words of encouragement and prayers have a meaning for my existence and please keep doing it day and night. By all these I am seeing my God helping me and has a bright future for me to raise my beloved child, Eyerusalem to live a life better than mine. God Bless You all for helping us and keep in touch with me.
