Chance for a Brand New Life

Dave and Joyce were so touched by the bulrushes in southern Uganda that Joyce Meyer Ministries is now partnering with Watoto to build a facility in war-torn northern Uganda where many children are struggling to survive.

Joyce Meyer says this is Oscar. He's a special little boy, and we wanted you to have an opportunity to meet him. Right now his mother is living out on the streets. She has five children who have already

Died from neglect and starvation. But because this home is here, Oscar has a chance for a brand-new life and a wonderful life.  You can help us not only help Oscar but make this same opportunity available for many other children here in Uganda. I'm asking you to get involved, send your most generous gift to help Oscar and other children just like him. You can be involved. You can be part of it. And I believe it will bring joy to your heart and put a smile on god's face. So do your very best -- that's all we ask. And remember if you're willing to support this work, then in reality you're here with us. 

Joyce Meyer says well, Gary, we've been talking previously about the villages.  And, of course, children are usually a little bit older when they come there. But really, the younger a child is when you get them and begin to help them, the easier that restoration is going to be. So, let's talk for a little bit first about the babies, which I think is something you've added even a little bit since the children's homes, right? You started with the children's homes and now you've added the babies.

Gary says, well, Marilyn and I were both moved by the fact that there were children who were born usually to a teenage mother who was afraid of an abortion so she gave birth to a live child and then threw the child away.
