Wakisa is currently receiving more requests for help than they can accommodate and they’ve also recently had a number of girls with situations they weren’t equipped for (e.g. severe mental illness, epilepsy, highly contagious diseases). Pray for Wakisa as they work to find places that can best serve these girls.

Tue 30th – DR Congo

Praise God for his protection over six HEAL staff members who were recently attacked by militia while in the field. They were driving back from the Mugunga camp (about 20km from Goma) when their car came under gun fire. Despite bullet damage to their radiator they were able to drive away and out of reach before the car stopped running. Miraculously everyone was kept safe but continue to pray for them as they have been traumatised by the event.
