“It was an opportunity and a dream come true, but the church had no means of paying a pastor’s wages. The responsibility of providing fell on his wife. She was a rock and kept the family together. She was amazing, and Ernest knew it!”

“Despite her efforts, the money she earns is too little. She could not see the way forward. Naomi began looking for a way out. A way to end the pain and the brokenness. A way to end the relentless weight of responsibility to care for her children, the ones she loves most.”

“On an unremarkable patch of land is the Kawaza Life Centre. A couple humble shelters, stand in defiance of the lush proud mountains in the distance. The sound of children laughing. Girls sing to the rhythm of a skipping rope. Boys play with a ball made from recycled plastic bags. From the shade under a tree, comes the heartfelt singing of a group of men and women.”
