Mamas and Babies

Not so good news. Some tribal women make the long trip into town to have their babies due to a lack of adequate medical care in the mountains. Most often, these expecting moms arrive with little more than the clothes on their backs. A local state organization offers housing and meals for their stay in town. However, when the baby is born...

Just imagine what it would be like. You have a baby with no clothes, no diapers, no blankets. You're in a big city where the culture is foreign to you and they don't speak your language. It's difficult to get your basic needs met.

Good News! A few of our missionaries have organized an effort to help these expecting moms and their babies. As time allows, they are sewing diapers, blankets, and gathering clothes for the babies as well as providing a few necessities for the new moms (like shampoo, soap, etc.) Thank you to our friends back home who have joined the effort.
