A Story of Hope
June has worked hard to provide for her children while carrying the responsibility of supporting her family on her own. She took every opportunity she could to meet their needs, even during a period of significant emotional strain.
When social workers met June in the community, she shared her struggles and felt heard and supported. Through counseling and continued encouragement, she gradually rebuilt her confidence and found strength to keep caring for her children.
Her children receive a Christian education, mentorship, and other support through MOHI. They have made progress in their studies and personal growth, and one has taken on a student leadership role. Her youngest child also receives regular child welfare services, including growth monitoring and immunizations.
June has started a small produce business in the community, and it’s helping to meet her family’s basic needs. She continues working toward greater stability for herself and her children.
A different name has been used to honor privacy.
Prayer Requests
