Emergencies never make an appointment!\u00a0 A few days ago, while Stephen was in the office preparing a Bible lesson, a village leader suddenly entered our yard.\u00a0 He had found a young boy on the ground in pain.\u00a0 The boy had fallen out of a Star Apple tree and apparently had broken his leg.\u00a0 He needed medical help and the village leader was asking if Stephen could take the child to the hospital in town.\u00a0 Stephen took the boy and his family to a hospital about a 20-minute drive from the village.\u00a0 Unfortunately, the first hospital didn\u2019t have an x-ray machine.\u00a0 So after the hospital put a stint made from layers of a banana tree on the boy\u2019s leg, Stephen took him to the other hospital in town.\u00a0 This hospital confirmed that the leg was broken by taking an x-ray, but was unable to do anything about the leg.\u00a0 The boy and his family made their way to the capital city the next morning.\u00a0 They once again sought medical help from a hospital there but were told to go to a different hospital.\u00a0 Four days later, a cast was finally put on his leg.\u00a0 Not just one leg, but on both legs and around his waist.\u00a0 One week after falling out of the tree, they were able to return home to the village.<\/p>\n

We are grateful that we had the opportunity to help this family with their medical emergency.\u00a0 The mother of this boy is a believer, and has been having many struggles lately.\u00a0 While this was another difficult time, it was amazing to see the Lord provide for the finances of this surgery, both through our team and through other sources.\u00a0 Please pray that her faith in Christ will continue to grow, and she will not be discouraged in the face of the difficulties she has been enduring.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
