This story comes from our partner Reverend Ejiba in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

"Dear Don,Mr. Stephane Lukusa Tshituamilonda

Here a story of Mr. Stephane Lukusa Tshituamilonda who is 60 years old and lives in Mbuji Mayi. This man was a teacher. His hip was broken, and since that time he was not able to do anything. He said, on the afternoon of 9 March 2004:

'God passed by my house and gave me a wheelchair which is a great blessing. During 6 years I was not able of going anywhere. I stayed on the bed everyday. This day I compare it with the day Jesus went to pool of Bethesda John 5:5, I was invalid like that man, but now God visited me. By receiving the wheelchair, a new day come in my life. I see the glory and the love of God in my life and believe my life will be not the same. Now I will be able of visiting relatives and attend church service.'

This man received the wheelchair with tears in his eyes.

Please send more wheelchairs!"
