“Pictures come in from all over Malawi day after day, but this one captured my attention,” recalls Richard (Dick) Stephens of the Malawi Project. “While I am extremely pleased with the shipments of medicine Kristy (World Emergency Relief), and Shirley (Universal Aide Society), have made possible, because I know that most recent shipment very well may have saved this little girl’s life, I can’t help wondering how many other children are in the same condition. Obviously if medicine and nourishing food had not been made available … well, I just don’t want to think about it.
“The question lodges in my heart beside the picture of this sick, malnourished, child, ‘What if this were my child or your child?’ I am sure both of us would move heaven and earth in an attempt to help her.”
