SOME OF OUR SHUT INS

Sister Ines Ibarra - Shut In Ministry

The Sonlight Church group did two days of ministry with Ines and our shut ins. This ministry always moves me. These are the poorest of the poor, of any country. They have no social security, welfare or anything. Tim Burgan from CTV came with us one day and said every group should participate. I am praying we can find a sponsor for Ines so she can do the work she does full time, she is a real saint. Here we see Jose, who was severely burned and now lives as a recluse in a vacant lot. Is appearance is unusual, and he has be ostracized by his neighbors. Ines and Caring Hearts are the only ones who show him the love of Christ. The other pictures are of Alfonso and his daughter who is severely handicapped mentally. In all her life the only thing she has said is "Ta Ta Ta". He is in his late 80s, she is in her 60s. They too have little or no means of support. They live on the groceries Inez can get from the government and catholic charities. Pray for Inez and our shut in ministry, pray that we can play a bigger role in helping these desparate people.
