Shaken

There is no way at this time to convey the stories told by those we have visited while here in Sri Lanka. My words cannot begin to describe the loss so many have suffered and the conditions they now face and even if I was the world’s greatest writer I would still need to hold back in fear for the safety of these vulnerable people.
It takes no time at all to realize that the pain and suffering endured by these people is so overwhelming that it will take only God himself to bring healing and wholeness to these people. Of course as always God’s favorite instrument of His love is us. In the midst of all this hopelessness there is a hope we have witnessed in those working in the camps. It is their love for these people that makes us believe that if more people join in giving this same sacrificial love for others then there is a chance for a life worth living for those who have seemed to have lost everything.

The picture shows the people who have raised their hands when asked "who of you have children living in the rehabilitation camps". These are camps/prisons that the government holds suspected rebel supporters who are often selected just because of their age.

We hope that many of you will seek us out in the hope of hearing the stories that have shaken us to a point of never being the same.

As always I ask that you pray and rejoice for the courage of those here helping to bring hope to the forgotten.
