On a recent visit, we met this 81 year old Christian great grandmother. Her body is wreaked with pain as she tries to raise her 14 year old great grand daugther alone. Her grandson died two years ago with AIDS. His body was broken with disease. He was unable to get out of his hammock for 3 years due to his intense pain. She cried as she told us that she lays awake night after night worrying about her great grand daugther.
Who will care for her? 
She wants to be a hairstylist but her current state of poverty doesn't allow for any future provision. They live day by day with or without food. Casa Hogar wants to help this grandmother and her great granddaughter by offering the love of Christ in support.
We pray that this faithful Christian great grandmother can eventually have peace in the knowledge that her great granddaughter will be cared for in the future after her death.
