“Not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them, is the true measure of our thanksgiving.”
~ W. T. Purkiser
Blessing Batubo lived with her seven children and her husband in a three-bedroom rented house in Njemanze for 12 years. She was at the market when the demolition started. When she returned home, she found her children standing outside the house. She was unable to save anything. Blessing used to sell soft drinks and beer in Njemanze, but her fridges and stock were destroyed in the demolition. The family is now living at the church. Blessing does not know where her husband is; he left shortly after the demolition. Her husband’s brothers and sisters have been helping her care for the children.

It was such a joy to be in the Ekenäs church at the end of May. Mats Backholm was the guest preacher and he really enabled me to meet with God.
What was great too was that it was at a meeting where he was the speaker in the same church 18 months ago, that dear Katja was saved. She's being blessed here as a thanks for the 9 months she's worked in the church as part of the 1förGud progamme - and trust me, not only is she a great woman of God, but she's also a good friend of both me and DD - and many others.

This moment appeared to me as God is blessing.

During the senior thesis, each student takes a moment to speak directly to the audience about the scenes they chose to perform and why. © Kiera Blessing 2015
