A Sifa Update from Florence Mugisha
I am still in the U.S. and am taking care for Sifa, one of the sponsored children of ANLM, who just had her jaw surgery in Washington, D.C. after not opening her mouth for over 5 years.
Tomorrow marks one month away from the rest of my family (Charles and the two boys headed back home in February). The truth is that I really miss my family but I do thank God I can help with Sifa.
God has been amazingly great to Sifa despite her difficult past. She’s lost both of her parents and has been cared for by an elderly grandmother who really struggled to take care of her.
Last year Sifa had very very severe infection and could’ve died if God had not intervened by sending a mission team from USA, Immanuel Bible Church from DC. Thank God for mission teams.
We praise God for successful surgery and continued healing for Sifa and for protecting her from losing her life during all the years she lived in pain.
Two days ago she had her dental appointment and the results were amazing, we all expected her to lose all or most of her teeth. But the doctor said was that she didn’t have any decay!
Sifa is now able to attend school and does speech therapy to help her completely heal.
Again I do not know what could have happened to Sifa if she wasn’t been able to be sponsored and be able to meet with Doctor Susan and the team from IBC.
Thank God for child sponsorship!
Thank you all for your prayers and support to Sifa.
Please pray for Sifa’s total recovery,and pray for a safe journey home to Kigali, Rwanda on the April 10th.
We give God all the praise and we thank Him for using His peopleto take care of Sifa.
We all can’t wait to be home.
