This is Henok Tadesse. He is now ten years old. Henok's father has died of AIDS and his mother also has it. When I met Henok his sister Rexona and their mother Zelalem, their lives were very hard. Zelalem was sick and only with theelp of others from the church were they able to make it at all. Henok hated his school because the teachers punishd the students harshly. Today, Henok is a wonderful, soft hearted little boy. He loves his new school and the lives of the whole family have changed so much. Henok wants to be a doctor. It is hard to put into words how much I feel the love from Henok and his sister. Zelalem is a wonderful Christian woman. God has touched her body and she and the family are so happy.

Spiritually adopting Henok will ensure his future and change his and his family's lives forever.
