Vicky helps Bev each week with cleaning and housekeeping. In 2013 when local people were “burning off” grasses, (in the same way the Aboriginal people of Australia do), the “burning-off fire” got “out of hand” and the grass roof of Vicky’s tukul caught on fire. The roof, structural posts and many of her possessions were destroyed. We shared this with our home fellowship at Birdwood United Church, in South Australia and they responded amazingly, donating enough funds to repair her home and replace lost items.
Vicky was so grateful for the provision from God’s hand, for her home to be restored!!
This is just one example of why God has placed us in Kitgum … to help those in need, perhaps in seemingly small but none-the-less important ways.
