Mira, a 21 year old from Mozambique, walked into Swaziland about 2 weeks ago. She came here illegally with her 1 year old son Luke. Even though the police know where she is they won't send her back because both she and her baby are very sick. We visited her just before going to the conference and tested her for HIV, which was positive, and found out that she is destitute, homeless, penniless and did not have dry clothes for her or little Luke.
We took her to Mary’s home where she will stay for a few days until we get her on treatment but long term we really want Mira to go back to her aunt's house in Mozambique. Her aunt is the only family that Mira has. A couple days later we took Mira and Luke to be admitted into Good Shepherd hospital. Both are very sick with HIV and malaria and we are not sure if they survive or whether they will be deported back to Mozambique.
Please pray for Mira and Luke, that they would come to know the God who heals in a personal way. Also, pray for their physical healing and that their lives would be positively changed out of their dire situation.
