Meet Ella and Eli
We know that every baby who is abandoned and rejected by those who were supposed to love and protect them, can rest in the confidence that they are accepted by God and are precious to Him.
We see this so clearly in the lives of twins Ella and Eli. Born premature, weighing just 2.4 and 2.8 lbs., as newborns they were abandoned in a bush. A Good Samaritan heard their cries and rushed them to a nearby hospital while authorities searched for their mother or any possible relatives.
Unfortunately, there was no trace of any family, so the twins were welcomed into the loving arms of their nanny at Baby Watoto. Here, they were given the care they desperately needed.
Every time a baby arrives on our doorstep, we pray for their healing because we know that God’s light shines brightest in the dark. So, although Ella and Eli may have begun their lives with an uncertain future, four years later they are thriving.
Like many four-year-olds around the world, Eli loves riding his bike and Ella enjoys playing with her dolls. And they both love soaking up lots of cuddles from their nanny as they feel the warmth and safety of her embrace.
Abandoned as newborns, we’re thrilled that in 2023 Ella and Eli were able to move into their forever home and family in our Bbira village. We can’t wait to see all that God has in store for these precious children.
Thanks for your support that has given Ella and Eli and nearly 1,600 of Uganda’s most vulnerable babies a future full of hope.
