Scipora's story

Lilian and I have known Scipora for a couple of years now. We came to know about her through our missionary friends Ed & Roberta Simons with Hope Ministry Inc. They asked if we could take care of Scipora and her other sisters on their behalf. We started this and gradually we have become one big family with Scipora and her sisters as well as Ed and Roberat. Scipora and her two sisters are orphans and live with their Mom out in the village of Babanki. Even though they are poor, their are very rich spiritually as they are so dedicated to Christ. Scipora has been very hard working and has completed her her high school. She wanted to go to University and we started thinking that if could be good if she could have a job along side while studying. The Lord provided an orphans home where she now live, work and study for her degree in Education.
I was able to visit her last week on my way back from the University to see her environment. Scipora and her sisters have truly made us proud. She is an example of someone with no background that is carefully sincerely walking with the Lord and the Lord is blessing her immensely. This brings to mind Proverbs 3:5-6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know. Remember the Lord in everything you do, and he will show you the right way.
