Admiration

Written by Tony Larsson Monday, 20 April 2009 19:14

I admire those who love - those who love their families, those who take care of noisy boy scouts and youngsters, who can meet people with broken lives and show them God's path to love and restoration. Those are the kind of people who get my admiration.

I know of a organization working among prostitutes in Bangladesh. One can wonder if it is possible to arrive lower than that in the eyes of men: women in a patriarchal society, forced into selling their bodies. But there are those who are even more unseen, and that is their unwanted children.

So this organization ‘Light Bangladesh’ comes to the red light district, walking around among these malnourished kids, talking to them, seeing them, feeding them, teaching them a few godly children's songs and telling them that they have a Father after all, in Heaven.

Let us all ask HIM, now and every new day, that he shows us who is our neighbour, and that he gives us the courage to step forward in love to meet with him. Then one day we will hear the King say to us:

"I was hungry and you gave me something to eat.
I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink.
I was a stranger, and you took me in.
I was naked, and you clothed me.
I was sick, and you visited me.
I was a prisoner, and you came to me.
Everything you have done for these the least brothers and sisters of mine,
that you have done for me.”

Support delivered for the Cyclone Aila victims

Light Bangladesh in a joint effort with Ashirbad (a program of Bangladesh Assemblies of God Church), distributed food items, drinking water, water purifying tablets and oral saline to the victims of the Cyclone Aila residing at the Mongla brothel. The support was distributed on June 06, 2009 with the aid of the local authority. Members form Light Bangladesh and Ashirbad joined the program and made it a overwhelming success. The beneficiaries were very happy to get the support, especially with the drinking water, water purifying tablets and dry food. One of the beneficiaries said “it is good that you bring the dry foods so that we can stock and eat proportionately till we find more source for food. And the water purifying tablets will save us from many easy diseases, specially will save the children."

Support was distributed among 200 victims. Although it was not enough for them to live until they find work and live on themselves again, it was definitely a relief for the moment. The acute shortage of drinking water forcing them to drink salty water, which in turn will create water borne diseases. Light Bangladesh distributed enough water purifying tablets along with fresh water and water container to keep them safe until they can have a safe source of water.

The next step is to support the victims to build their houses. LB is presently collecting funds from different resources to donate to the victims in building houses. You can contribute to the support program with "whatever-you-have" or just spreading the news and with your prayers. Thanks for being with us.
