It’s extremely rare that we actively ask for donations.
But we have a pressing situation.
One of our church members in Cape Town, South Africa has a high risk pregnancy. She is due in early September.
Her previous experience with giving birth in the reduced price/fee government hospitals in Cape Town was terrifying.
They put her in the same room as an infectious Tuberculosis patient!
And they demanded that she needed a surgery which she never received and yet she never needed!
And they put some kind of tubes into the baby’s stomach without telling the parents and never admitted to doing so, and never told why they did it!
She and her husband are desperate that she not return to the mad scientist torture chamber that they call a “government hospital” in South Africa!
We have only 3 months to collect enough funds to pay for her a private hospital to ensure her safe childbirth. It is a high risk pregnancy, so there’s a possibility of C-section and multiple nights stay in the hospital.
We are wanting to collect at least $2,500.00 US dollars for her expected hospital bill and related medical tests and medical care for both before and after the birth.
The actual total of pre-birth, birth and after birth medical care will probably be higher than this.
This would be much more in America and some other nations, so is extremely cheap in comparison, yet is extremely expensive in the context of what this ministry can afford and of what the parents can afford.
If anyone can contribute any amount, even just $20, in May, June, July, August and/or September, please visit www.isawthelightministries.com/donate.html for online donations (or instructions of how to send a money order if you don’t want to send online.)
Any help is greatly appreciated, no matter how small. It all adds up if multiple people send.
However, in the past when we asked for donations for anyone, which is extremely rare, we never received ANY, or extremely little. So this is really a long shot in the dark!
But I have to do something to try to help this family.
