Widow’s Oven Provides Income

Special Oven at Gurku

Special Oven at Gurku

While visiting the Interfaith Camp at Gurku, I met Esther. She is a widow with five children; two of which are living with her at the camp. A special oven was built with funds donated from Germany. The widows in the camp make muffins daily to sell to others at the camp and in the neighboring town. I bought 10 muffins and shared them with our group. They were a tasty snack and held us over between breakfast and lunch. This gift of the oven gives widows a way to work together and provides independence for life under difficult circumstances.
