“We see children and old people with significant medical problems needing care beyond what a nurse can provide. We see children with no food, no clothing, no adult assistance.” Mitchell is grateful for the help she’s received from family members, friends and the Christ Community congregation. “Last month I ran into a young girl who was moved from her village to take care of her grandmother.
