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

Dear Don,

Here attached is part of a letter from a catholic congregation of sisters. The sisters oversee a lepers hospital.

Sister Marie Esther said in this letter that this hospital last received wheelchairs in 1937. Since then nothing happened! 57 years after they are receiving 10 wheelchairs and they are grateful to God and to the donors. This letter shows once more how the wheelchairs distribution is contributing to change many lives.

In addition are 2 photos for wheelchairs given to individuals. MILEMBA KABWE is 18 years old, she is not able to walk by herself without being transported. You can see this young girl smiling. Also, ODIA CHARLOTTE is 72 years old. She is carrying her bible. 

God be blessed for Free Wheelchair Mission.
