God at Work

In November 2010, we met this family at the Soldier Camp. Despite their smiles, this daughter, her mother, and the daughter's son were homeless. The community helped as much as they could by sharing food and a floor to sleep on. We met two other homeless families. One women would care for her granchild while her daughter worked as a prostitute in a local restaurant. This was the only job she could find that provided enough support for the family, but yet it wasn't even enough support to provide a home. Our team easily came to the conclusion that our leftover team funds should be spent in this community. Thanks to our generous sponsors, we were able to leave $13,000 for CHO to spend at the Soldier Camp. Part of this money went to building a home for the family above, and two other families at the Soldier Camp. Along with the houses, they were given pots, pans, and chickens to provide a source of revenue through the sale of the eggs.
