CP Sapling

In our East Asian country, many children with disabilities are abandoned. This is due to a lack of medical insurance, a lack of government programs and a lack of non-profit organizations to reach out to these families. Families that keep their disabled children are ridiculed by society, friends and family. One such story is Glenda and her daughter, Zelda. Zelda has cerebral palsy with seizures and movement difficulties. Glenda's husband did not want Zelda. He abused both Glenda and Zelda until they had to leave home. After leaving the home, Glenda and Zelda traveled around the country looking for help. They finally came to our city. The Christians in the area reached out to them. Seeing the love of us Christians, Glenda came to accept Christ.

Zelda is now attending our play group. She enjoys playing with others, like playing on scooter boards and hitting a beach ball. Her life has gone from rejection and despair to hope and joy. CP Sapling became a light of hope in their dark world. This family without hope is starting to grow in Christ and Zelda is starting to gain motor skills.
