Hope for Bastion # 4

Hello on a rainy dark Wednesday. It was 8 degrees when I left home this today and it is already 22 in Bastion, with the temp going up to 33 today.

Nikki has arrived in Bastion. She wrote to say that she arrived and was greeted by many friends at the airport, which was a great joy and surprise. She also said that it was hot. There is much to do there and she will be quite busy again.

She mentioned two people who have debilitating illnesses that suffer from the lack of medical care there. These illnesses would so easily be treated in Canada, but she is not in Canada, and they of course are not.

It's a stark reminder that people are in need of basic health care and while it may be a human right, it is not always provided. And then there is "hope" for Bastion. Nikki and others have committed to providing as much care as they can with the resources that they have and that others give and it makes a difference. For less that the cost of a large timmies a day a child can have an education, breakfast, school clothes, some health care and emergency food aid, if needed for their family.

So, what can you do about it. please read the attached website and make contact to help the children. http://sponsorhope.ca/

Have a great week, enjoy the sun, rain and all that you have been blessed to enjoy. I will have more updates next week.
