pray for Glendy
Glendy, 14, lives with her mum and four sisters. Her dad died last October after a tragic road accident. Glendy, her two sisters and their dad had travelled to their local town for a church celebration. On their way back the car they were travelling in lost control, went off the road and dropped into a cliff. Their dad, Gregorio, died the day after, despite the efforts of the doctors to save his life.
Losing her dad has had a huge impact on Glendy. At times she does not talk for hours and she feels very anxious about who will take care of their family.
Glendy suffered serious injuries to her face. Her jaw was fractured and it has left her with deep scars. This has affected her self-esteem as she shares, “I do not want people to see my face. Children look at me and laugh. I do not want to leave my house.”
The loss of her husband has also left Glendy’s mum, Maria, devastated. “The pain of losing a loved one does not go away overnight. Pain is unbearable we cannot hide it. I believe in the promise of God not to fear and he will help us.”
The family is receiving support and counselling through their church, local community and World Vision. They are also receiving help to rebuild their home.
Please pray for Glendy, her sisters and mum that God will give them strength and comfort as they mourn the loss of their dad. Pray that Glendy will find help to process and come to terms with the trauma she has experienced and that her self-confidence will grow. Please also pray for God’s provision, as their dad worked to provide for the family so they have lost their income too. Pray they will be able to find another source of income to have enough food, water and clothes.

We thank God that our prayers have been answered and these people have moved away. The community is peaceful once again and people can move about freely.
