You Send So Much More Than a Wheelchair

When you generously send a Bible and a wheelchair overseas to a child with a disability, the spiritual impact is life-changing for every member of the family! Recently, Yesina brought her 3-year-old daughter, Karla, with physical disabilities to receive a wheelchair from Wheels for the World in El Salvador. “I take care of Karla all by myself since my husband works long hours to provide for our family,” Yesina shared with our team members.

In a culture that believes a family is cursed for having a child with a disability, Yesina is a mother of prayer and faith. Karla’s parents take her to church and pray for her constantly. Yesina told us, “Ever since Karla was born, the Lord has given our family strength and we trust that He will provide for Karla’s every need.”

At that Wheels for the World distribution, God used you to provide for this family’s needs. Karla received a wheelchair given by you and a Bible in her own language. Yesina shared, “This wheelchair and Bible will change our lives. Now Karla can sit up and we can take her outside in the community. We’ll also take her to church more often instead of keeping her indoors.”

Your gifts and prayer made it possible for one little girl to receive one Bible, and one wheelchair to bring encouragement to a family in El Salvador! “We’re very happy and grateful to you all. You have blessed us greatly and I pray God blesses you in return,” said Yesina thankfully.
