This is poverty!


Hi, according to normal practice i should have been in church at this time but just decided to share this with you. Hope God spares on this one.
How well do you know poverty and how willing are you to help the poor? I was just reflecting on a journey i embarked to Mangoase, a village in the Nanumba District in Northern Ghana. Upon entering the village i saw these kids running away from the car. I inquired why and was told vehicles barely came to the village. My mission was to collect data for the Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey by UNICEF. When was the last time you saw kids with no clothes? I guess you’ll say in the Stone Age! My reason for sharing this is that anytime you take a meal, say a prayer to thank God because there are a million people out there looking for food and just to live a descent life. Always try to reach out to the poor.
Hope i didn’t make you sad.
