Motivated by love

“When LWF started here, we were like in the bush. We didn’t even wash ourselves – we didn’t look like human beings! 

But now we feel good and are thankful to LWF.

By the grace of God I was chosen as an animator in 2009.  LWF came and said they needed someone from our community. I got lots of votes, and became one of the leaders.  I had to do an exam, but by the grace of God he gave me the answers. 

LWF has also trained me to be a literacy teacher.

“I am motivated by love for my villagers,
and remembering how my situation was …”

I want others to experience change like me.

I walk to the nearby villages, maybe 2 kilometres or more to train others in literacy. It is difficult. My bike is ruined, so I always have to go on foot. In the rainy season we have no coats. I get hungry and tired.

I enjoy when people call on me to help because they have confidence in me.

I am glad that Australia is supporting us, and pray you keep on helping so that those behind can grow like us.”
