Life in the Village of Bakka

Everyday life in the village of Bakka is hard to imagine. Starting the day by fetching water, carrying it on your head for miles.  Fetching firewood to cook your food.  Digging in the garden to grow the food you will eat.  All of this is completed before the sun is too high in the sky.  

Sleeping on dirt floors in leaky huts, with no electricty or any comforts, with a variety of insects.   Living on less than a $1.00 per day.  The prices of everything are the same or more than in the US.

Now imagine being blind or crippled in these conditions.   Kieza Robert 28 years old, fetches water to earn a living.  Kieza is blind, he is guided by 2 little girls, he follows them by listening to  their steps.  Kieza has never attended school.  
The young girls, Celina age 6 and  Aisha age 8 are not attending school.  If we sponsor them for school Kieza will no longer have his job.  Prayers are needed to guide us in helping Kieza, Celina and Aisha.
