This is Sister Aruna, one of our widows, after receiving some medication for her paralysis. Although we have had to downsize the widows & elderly ministry, we are still giving medications to several who are in more need, including 4 who are taking paralysis medication. We have been helping Aruna with this for over 2 years after she had one or 2 strokes. Her husband died about 20 years ago. She had 3 children. One of her 2 sons died in a drowning accident at the beach. His wife then died; some are thinking from depression, but no sure information. Then, because of family conflicts her only daughter set herself on fire when her 2nd child was only 2 months old. After one month she died. The children's father wouldn't keep them, so Aruna kept them for a few years. The father died of cancer a few years later. Now Aruna's grandson is with another relative, and Aruna still has the granddaughter, now 14 years old. This girl, Sai Bhavya, is one of the children we are helping to care for through your donations. Because of the strokes, Aruna and Bhavya are staying with Aruna's other son, the only one of her 3 children still alive. Please pray for Aruna and Sai Bhavya, and for the salvation of the relatives they are staying with.
