Today was a day that Octavio Victoria will soon not forget. He is stepping on the red clay dirt of Ugandan soil. As we drive down the dusty road, his excitement builds. For the very first time, he is going to meet his sponsored child who lives in the community surrounding Agape Children’s Village. We reached the home and were greeted by the grandmother and the older sister. His sponsored child, Tony, was off fetching water for the family. When he returned there was a joyous meeting. Hugs were many, gifts were given to him and to other children in the family. After we spent some time and were heading out, Octavio began to encourage his young sponsored son to know that he teaches every child in household to know and love the Word of God. He exhorted Tony to be a lover and a doer of God’s Word. We then prayed for the family and asked for God to meet every need that they have. And we trust that He will do so.
