Description
Foreword by John Sentamu, Archbishop of York.The answers to Africa's problems are ultimately spiritual not just physical, political and economic.Beatrice Omese was left to starve after her husband, a well liked pastor, was killed in a road accident. This book shows how one woman refused to be defeated and raised up an association of widows that has helped over 35,000 widows in Uganda to provide for themselves in an economically sustainable way.The story is told against the backdrop of chronic, systematic child abuse that has left northern Uganda devastated for over 25 years, perpetrated by an evil organisation calling itself 'the Lord's Resistance Army.' Since the churches in Uganda united in prayer, a situation that had seemed impervious has begun to be driven out by a concerted political and military response.160 Pages
