An Orphan's Story
Aliya and David in the Muslim section gathering more info on the sponsored kids and getting new photos. There are tons of Kids Club children in this area and as Aliya was interviewing the kids a shirtless man approached David and me and began gesturing towards a 10 year old boy (in the brown shirt) and speaking with obvious concern on his face. Though he spoke in Khmer I knew what he was saying. David translated: "Can you please find a sponsor for this boy? Both of his parents are dead and he has no family. He lives with whoever will keep him but he has no way to support himself. He is a smart boy and catches on to things fast. He would do well in school. Can you sponsor him?"
I knew what Chris would say so I told David to get the boy's info and tell the man that we would put him at the top of the list. That night I posted the boy's story and photo on Facebook. The next morning I'd already had a lady respond to say that she would love to sponsor this child. Facebook is a powerful thing when used for good. Thank you Lord.
