Praising God for the new home which has been completed for Lydia and her 4 daughters in Central African Republic! We have helped meet the needs in the community of Bimon with a well and resource center during Covid, but this was our first home build in partnership with Julie’s Heart Cry.
Pastor Louis and his wife Lydia have faithfully served in a small church in Bimon for over 12 years meeting the needs of 14 orphans and 50 people displaced from war. The couple took part in training at the resource center that train pastors’ wives to become self-sustaining through sewing. Lydia enrolled in the class, and mid-way through the course, pastor Louis Marie was diagnosed with terminal cancer. He recently passed away, and Lydia became a widow with four daughters with no decent dwelling for her and her daughters. We can’t think of any better recipient of a new home than to serve someone who has served this community so faithfully the last 12 years. Please pray for Lydia as she continues to serve this community and may her home be a light for those who don’t know Jesus!
