Margaret holds a very special place in my heart. She is a thirty-three year old single mother to four amazing children, Paul, Mike, Florence (aka Flower), and Esther. Her youngest, Esther, has been sponsored by IChooseYou since December 2010, while her oldest three just got sponsored in June of this year.
Margaret's husband left her in April of 2006 for another woman. He used to be an elder at Mbale Presbytery Church but because he was having an affair with another woman, he was asked to step down from that position. Shortly after, he moved to the village with his new girlfriend.
Because Margaret grew up in a Catholic home, her parents hoped she would become a nun, but she dreamed of becoming a preacher. Currently, Margaret is employed at Lulwanda Children's Home as a tailor, and as well, works with IChooseYou making beads, door mats and helps with sewing.
Margaret became a Christian in 1993, and you can tell by the smile on her face and the joy in her heart, that God has completely changed her life. Margaret is a member of the Dove Choir at Mbale Presbytery Church. She is so grateful for the way God has kept her family and considers IChooseYou to be a miracle. Please pray with Margaret for a heart of love, faith and grace. Pray that her children will continue to love and serve God for the rest of their lives. Pray that her story would be a testimony to all and many would come to know Christ because of it. Also pray that she would be able to get the funds to buy a house of her own.
