One of Many - LTLA Update - Oct 2023

 Greetings Again LTLA Friends,


There are many life change stories for those whom Life to Life Africa has impacted. Itai, pictured below wearing an Overflow Thrift Store t-shirt alongside Mrs. Bangira, is one of those stories. Below you can also view a video of Itai sharing about her involvement with the LTLA Community Ministry team (once again, we thank Hopevale Church and Pete Carlson for producing this video. We are grateful for your partnership in this way).


Itai describes her early life as, "horrible," having had no parental guidance from divorced parents and having to be married at 19 because she got pregnant. After her fourth child was born, her husband died leaving her as a widow to care for children and grandchildren. That is when she became a beneficiary of Life to Life Africa receiving food assistance and training in how to grow food for her family. Itai shares the spiritual impact LTLA has had in her life

"Most importantly is that I learned about having a relationship with God through Christ. The Bible studies and individual spiritual mentoring I received changed my life. I am a new person and now I counsel others when they are in trouble that God is the only one who can save and redeem us from all our problems. Thank you for your support of this ministry that changed my life."

As an LTLA Community Ministry team member, Itai is mentoring widows like Mrs. Bangira (pictured below with Itai) who once lived in a tent, but now lives in a house. She parented her daughter with the principles she learned from attending the LTLA Women of Hope meetings and that daughter built the house in the photo for her family and her mother.  

What a blessing to be part of what God is doing through this ministry!
