Encourage One Another
Sherry Hemsworth of Encourage One Another Inc. ministry (Navajo, Zuni, San Carlos and Fort Apache Reservations in Arizona and New Mexico) is encouraging all of us to remember those who live on the reservations without running water or electricity. In her recent newsletter she says, "It is already below freezing with the low being 0 degrees and lots of wind and snow. Life is brutal for those trying to stay warm and hydrated. Obtaining water when everything is freezing is extremely difficult." She explains that of those who even have wood stoves, firewood is difficult to get and expensive since there are so few trees. This early in the winter Sherry says she has "already been informed of a woman who froze to death in bed inside a home that had no electricity."
Please remember these folks in your prayers and may God multiply all gifts! You can read Sherry's newsletter on our website. The wood stove below is a Navajo family's lifeline in the winter. Notice the cement block walls and cement/dirt floor.
