For more than 30 years, Ama Gien, now 85 years old, has been living all alone. Once a devoted church caretaker, she now spends her days in a small, fragile home with only silence and prayer as her companions.
Her life took a heartbreaking turn when thieves broke into her home and stole everything she had, including the small amount of money, donated clothes, and food that kept her alive. The loss was devastating. The funds, about $2,000, were meant to help her secure a modest home after years of living in temporary shelters. Blaming herself for the loss, Ama fell ill from stress and gastric pain, leaving her bedridden for two weeks and cared for only by kind neighbors.
Now, walking long distances is nearly impossible for her. On most days, she survives on a simple meal of rice mixed with salt. The local church still helps by giving her rice every month, but it is never enough to last. Despite her frail condition, Ama continues to pray and sing hymns softly from her bed, holding onto her faith as her source of strength.
Since childhood, life has never been easy for Ama. She grew up in an orphanage after her parents could no longer care for her and has spent her entire life relying on the kindness of others.
Today, this 85-year-old woman faces her days in solitude and hardship. But with your help, she does not have to endure it alone. Let us come together to help Ama Gien live with comfort and peace in her remaining years. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings hope to her tomorrow.
