        "It's a miracle. You have touched us by helping our children."

        Arusha, Tanzania

        Samwell and Asinari are cousins in a Maasai village in Tanzania. When they first started walking, their parents noticed something was wrong with their legs.

        Samwell’s mom explained, “Walking was always a struggle for them. At times, my son, Samwell, fell down, held his legs, and cried out in pain. I knew something was very wrong, but I didn’t know where to get help.”
          
        When an outreach team supported by Operation Blessing came to their village, they learned about our surgical program. After a long journey, they arrived at Plaster House, and Operation Blessing paid for both of their surgeries.
         
        Samwell’s mom said, “It is a miracle. You have touched us by helping our children, they will have normal lives because of you. I would love to welcome everyone who made this possible into my home to thank you personally. I pray you will prosper in everything.”
