For outsiders like us, the stench of the slum where eight-year-old Joseph lives was extremely potent. Joseph, however, is accustomed to the smell.

Through Heaven's Family's Food Ministry you've enabled our dedicated ministry partner in Rwanda to continue to faithfully minister to sick and dying prisoners. Their work is called the "milk ministry" because the milk is so important to the sick prisoners. The team regularly comes three times a week to visit the sick, old, and destitute in the prison hospital. Some are too ill to eat, but the milk helps them regain life and strength. The prisoners open up about their problems and are open to hearing about Jesus.
