(The following letter has undergone minimal editing so as to bring greater clarity to the reader, but also to remain consistent with the education, culture, and message of its Ugandan author. English is spoken and written different there to some degree. For example: During my visit in Uganda, I saw many barbershops that were incorrectly named, "Saloon" instead of "Salon". I've also commonly seen Ugandans use the word "pattern" when they meant "partner" (when they desire to partner with someone in ministry). I believe that this is commonly taught incorrectly in Uganda. While English is the second language in Uganda, many incorrect words like this are commonplace there due to the various levels of education of the populace.)


A Letter From Yiga:
Praise God brothers and sisters!

I am called Yiga Shafiq. I live with my mother and 12 children. My daddy passed away in 2020 when I was 16 and left us with our mother. Life wasn’t easy at all because he was the one taking care of us. Since then, I stopped going to school because of school fees. I started digging and fetching water for people in our village so that I can earn for my family but it was not enough. My mom is old, so she can’t work or do heavy work. Life became so hard for my family and me and it even took me to the extent of wanting to end my life as I was so depressed whenever I saw my young siblings crying and my mom but. I thank God who sent Mom Brandy and Papa Ervin Malcuit who talked to me and gave me hope. My prayer is that all my siblings can start going to school and have clothes, water, and access to medication. We also pray for shoes!

Papa helped and bought for us a female pig and a male pig. We name the female treasure and this brought a lot of joy to my mother because she really loves pigs a lot. He also bought for us chickens! One day they were going to take our house land because it hadn't been paid for since my daddy passed away.  My mother was really worried because we had nowhere to go if it all we were chased from the land! Papa helped us with money and we fully paid them for our home and it is now ours. This was a huge blessing to us because shelter means a lot to us. With the help of others, Papa helped us buy a farm so our family can work on to grow food.
