Part 5: Shining Brighter
“Even darkness must pass.
A new day will come.
And when the sun shines,
it'll shine out the clearer.”
- J.R.R. Tolkien
Youth soccer players join the construction team for a day to work on the Multipurpose building.
It started with hunger. Hunger for food, hunger for more, hunger for better. And compassion. A calling to spend oneself on behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed. Lespwa Lavi founder, Ricardo, is driven to see his people live a better way.
You can live a life in the USA without hunger, or much discomfort at all. It may be easier to forget for months at a time what happens in the 3rd part of the world. But if it’s real to you. If it’s where you came from….or if you make it your concern. If your heart knows the hearts of people suffering. If you align with the broken heart of God…..you can’t forget.
For the hundreds of dear ones who remember and have lent us your support: here it is.
