JESUS IS LORD MINISTRIES UGANDA

When we finished the building of Florence Bengo’s house 13th April 2013, we took a brief tour in the village; we did not know that God was leading us to help another widow who urgently needs help!

God led us to this widow called Rachael Nabiry who is blind of 86 years, she is staying with two of her daughters children who died of AIDS and they are the ones who are now taking care of her which has made these children not to get a chance of going to school. The whole house needs to be renovated, the roof links when it rains which causes them not sleep some times when it rains at night. We need your support to help Rachael and we can do it with your support.

Name: Rachael Nabiry
Age: 86
Occupation: none
Health Status: Blindness and advanced age

Rachael Nabiry, Age 86 and blind

 

This is the picture of her full house which she sleeps in with those two kids. The iron sheets of the roof are all very old and they leak when it rains. The whole roof needs to be removed and then replace a new one and that is what we need to do for her – if you can help us to do it.

House that needs a new roof.

New House for Florence Bengo

The roof is gone with the wind.

The roof was gone with the wind.

New House in process

New House in process

A few weeks back we showed the photos of Florence Bengo’s house which the roof was destroyed by the wind, not only the roof was damaged but even the walls as you can see.

We sat as a committee and decided to break that destroyed house and build her a new good house which will be enough for her and the family!
The building of the house commenced two weeks back but due to the heavy rains, it has led to it is delay as you can see the photos, though the rain is too much here in Uganda which is delaying the building of this house, but we believe that in two to three weeks time she will be proudly sleeping in her new house.

Please consider to continue supporting us as we operate under your prayers and donations!

Thank you for all those ones who donated and those ones willing to donate, please donate $25 for the roofing of this house!
