In Haiti, the elderly are a demographic that is often overlooked and underappreciated. Nursing homes or assisted living facilities are not really a thing in Haiti and if their family members aren't around or able to care for them, the elderly can easily fall to the wayside.
myLIFEspeaks elderly program has 60+ members who gather weekly for devotionals, prayer time, exercise, and practicing writing letters and numbers, something many of them never had the opportunity to learn.
In this episode, Eli shares more about the elderly program and the impact it is making in the lives of the elderly in our community and all who are involved in it.

Have you ever had to hide your child or worry about what people would say if you were walking around with them? This is a problem that Marie Sonie, the mother of one of the children in our special education classes faced. Her son Sonoldens was born with physical and cognitive delays, and in Haiti, that is a sentence for discrimination.
Marie Sonie struggled for the first several years of Sonoldens’ life. Sonoldens’ father did not want to be a part of his life so she was left to raise him by herself. She had many friends and family that didn’t want to be around her and Sonoldens. She felt so alone and she felt like God had forsaken her. She felt hopeless... until she heard about myLIFEspeaks.
Listen to Bethany share Marie Sonie & her son, Sonoldens' story for Day 25 of our myLIFEspeaks devotional.
