This is Kamohelo (Kaw-ma-hay-low). He is 8 years old and lives in Welkom, South Africa. Wednesday night, January 25, 2012 the youth group at Walnut Park Baptist Church in Muscatine, Iowa decided to take on the awesome responsibility of sponsoring Kamohelo. Kamohelo lives at the Restoring Hope Village in Welkom where he receives the necessary food, clothing, shelter, christian education, and love that every child needs. Louis and Amber O'Tool (friends of Pastor Jake and Loren) are missionaries that live and work at the village under the Restoring Hope International Ministry. Kamohelo just celebrated his birthday on the 21st of January, but also celebrated his spiritual birthday on the 8th of January. "I love Jesus! I prayed Jesus into my heart! I love Jesus! I love Jesus!" he proclaimed as he reflected on the decision that he made to trust Christ. The teens are excited to sponsor him and to communicate with him through email, letters, and even through skype! Lord willing, this will help the teens see and understand that there are people all over the world that need physical help, but even more importantly need spiritual help! Please be praying for Kamohelo and the other children in the village, as well as the missionaries that are serving the Lord there!
