Where is the HOPE?

Hope?

Yes it does exist.

There is a lady in the community of Kabukwenie named Elizabeth.

Her next door neighbors died and their children were left as orphans. So she helped them. And it has grown. She feeds up to 90 orphaned hungry children 3 times a week. And on one of those days she also washes their clothes.

She has gotten the community involved so she doesn't do all on her own.  We met about 10 other women from her community that are helping her out.

She saw a need in her immediate community and rose to the challenge. She genuinely  loves these kids and it shows. That is hope.

As per usual it is always easier to talk about the negative than the positive. I am still coming to terms and processing all that I saw. 

Money obviously is not the answer.

Drugs (ARV's) are not the answer.

Health care is not the answer.

Food is not the answer.

Cultural understanding is not the answer.

All of these ideas will go a long way in helping the global problem of AIDS and HIV. But will not solve the problem. 

There is an answer to this Global crisis, that I Know. It is a combination of all these and more, plus the biggest factor. 

A loving God.
