Postcard from Africa: Mozambique

Mrs Calorina was born with HIV, and because of this, no one wanted to walk near or even touch her. She was made fun of and made to feel like an outcast.

“I tried various ways to commit suicide—taking poisons and even quitting my HIV treatments, but nothing worked. It seemed liked God did not exist because of my suffering,” said Calorina.

One night, she went to see the movie about Jesus, and something just made sense to her and seeing Jesus suffer for wanting to save the lives of people. “I realised that God had a purpose for my life, and I decided to follow Jesus and continue with my HIV treatments.”

Pray for Calorina. Pray that God would give her more strength and mercy for her life.
