A Widow’s Sight

God has a heart for the broken-hearted, the hurt, the blind, and the poor. And God has a great heart for 33-year-old Amudhaala Chantamma. Amudhaala was born blind, and growing up she depended on her parents to help her navigate through her small village. After she got married, she relied on her loving husband to fulfill this task, and once her two children were old enough to help, her 13-year-old son and 12-year-old daughter became their mother’s eyes.

Unfortunately, a few weeks ago, Amudhaala lost her husband and because they were unable to work to make any payments, they also lost their home. Devastated, Amudhaala did her best to keep her children in school while she tried to make any money; but soon Amudhaala and her children found themselves living on the streets without a father or any family around. The church community had compassion for Amudhaala so they worked together to provide a piece of land for them to live on; but without any funds to buy any building material, Amudhaala and her children are currently residing at a neighbor’s house.

If God moves your heart to help provide for Amudhaala and her family, please reach out to HHK WMC to see how you can help at 303-757-0777 or at coj@coj.org.
