Summary

SummaryWhen my village was attacked, they burned homes, killed the men, and kidnapped the children. I was terrified, with nothing but the clothes on my back. I fled to a new area, carrying the weight of caring for my eight children and twenty grandchildren alone. 🥺🙏 One day, a local church welcomed me and offered me emergency food aid through Open Doors. For the first time in months, I ate without worry, and my children could sleep with full stomachs. I found a community who listened to my fears and shared my burdens, reminding me that God had not forgotten me. ❤️‍🩹 Now, I trust fully in the hand of God—He allowed me to suffer so that He could bring me joy again. Seeing my grandchildren smile at a simple meal restores my hope. Even though I still depend on this support, I know He is my Provider. Please pray that God continues to protect us and bring an end to violence so we can rebuild our lives. 🙌🕊️

Farouk*, a grandmother of 20, fled her village in #Cameroon after a period of relentless attacks by extremist fighters who want to impose Sharia (Islamic law) in her area. Hers is one of thousands of families who have been given emergency food aid by Open Doors.
