Learn how you can be apart of helping people who are in need with our A Thrifty Mom Bag of Rice Campaign. In 2016 we started helping a young man named Ikechukwu from Nigeria. Summer of 2019 we were able to visit his family in Aba, Nigeria. While there we saw widespread poverty and lack of basic needs. We would like to invite you to help meet one of those basic needs, by providing Nigerian families with rice. This gift will feed a large family for a few months, or a single person a year. It also reminds them they are loved, and brings most of them to tears… as a full bag of rice is one of the most generous gifts they will ever receive. You can also read about other families we have been able to bless here.

The following story is about the Sunday family. Their bag of rice was donated thanks to Julie Bryson, and this is the 547th bag of rice our program has been able to give away thanks to generous donations.
We met the Sunday family in Afaha village in Akwa Ibom State, which is domiciled in the southern part of Nigeria. When we got to the house on Sundays, they were surprised to see us. They asked us how they might be of help to us if we were looking for anyone. We told them we came to visit their family, and they were shocked. She offered us a seat, and we politely declined because we did not come for that. We told them what brought us to their family, and the family was surprised. They told us we were joking about how we could give them a bag of rice in these hard times and that one of the government officials sent us to give them a bag of rice, which is very strange. We told them it was donated to them by someone, and they started praising God for visiting them in these hard times. They were also shocked that someone who did not know them gave them a bag of rice without any strings attached. The family stays in a one-bedroom apartment. The house is an uncompleted building that was built with blocks. The family is blessed with three kids, and they attend the government school close to them.
The family cooks at the back of their house. The family does not have a better kitchen; they cook at the back of their house. They are unable to afford a cooking gas, and they are left with no choice but to use firewood to cook. They go into the bush to fetch the wood for cooking, and it costs them nothing when they do that. When we visited, Mr. Sunday was not in; they told us he drives a motorcycle to fend for the family, and the wife, Mrs. Ndifreke, is unemployed. She said she has an interest in learning tailoring to support her husband, but due to lack of funds, she is unable to do so.
As they prayed for the donor and expressed gratitude to God, the family was overjoyed and felt their spirits lifted. They said that the donor’s labors will be rewarded by God and that everything he touches will prosper. The family was famished and in agony, yet when we left, they were happy and smiling.
