Beata has lived in the community of Huye her whole life. She makes a living for her eight children through farming, but between rent for the land and other expenses, meeting basic needs for the family is a challenge.

This year, Beata’s youngest son, Baptiste, was sponsored through Africa New Life—an important milestone for the family:

“This was the very first time my child was getting an education from nursery school with all the necessary scholastic materials.”

As the weight of covering school fees lifted, Beata began to save money. When gifts of food came from Baptiste’s sponsor, she would tuck that week’s grocery money into savings. Little by little, the family’s pool of resources grew, and Beata was able to purchase a goat! Beata is hopeful for a bright future, not just for Baptiste or her own family, but also for the whole community of Huye:

“Africa New Life has changed this community… Parents became happy when Africa New Life came and took their children to school.”

With sponsorship and support from Africa New Life that are shared, families like Beata’s are able to improve their circumstances through paying off debt, purchasing a goat to earn extra income, or bolstering their businesses. This is the transformation we strive to see happen through our ministry areas in every community!

Part of your gift to the Impact Fund this month will go toward continuing our growth in Huye, by planting a New Life Bible Church that will minister to this special community. You can be a part of this future impact for families like Beata’s with a gift today.
