In April 2024, we visited one of our elderly church members. Her daughter had tragically died after giving birth to twins. We cuddled the newborns and comforted our friend as best we could, praying for this grieving family.
Two months later, the babies were in critical condition, suffering from malnutrition and weighing just over 4 pounds each. We brought them to Daystar and our community has rallied around them, bringing formula, diapers, clothes, and other essentials. Women of the church take turns holding the twins and nursing them back to health. TFI has contributed funding to support their care in this vulnerable stage.
By the grace of God, these sweet babies are now five months old and getting stronger every day. They have tripled their weight and are now learning to sit. We are committed to continuing our support for these precious twins as they grow up. Nothing can replace the mother that they have lost, but a village of adopted aunties and uncles is stepping up to ensure that these babies will always know they are deeply loved.
What a beautiful community, for everyone helping with the twins and children at large, may the good Lord bless you and fill your hearts and homes with all you desire, for the kind hearts you have. Thank you, good bless
