Receiving a net after coming out of hiding with HIV
February 2012[/caption]
When a child comes out of hiding, Sweet Sleep gives them a mosquito net so they will be protected until we can return with a bed. Our team leader, Alyson, and I had the remarkable opportunity to see this ministry come full circle when a little boy who had come out of hiding, registered with our partner, and had received a net during our time here in February 2012, was called back to receive his full bed set on Monday. We track these children. We come back. We make good on our promise.

On Monday, the day we found HIV+ Maureen sick and listless with Malaria, 54 children came out of hiding. Right now 54 children are living with HIV/AIDS and desperately need to be protected. Will you protect ONE child? $50 provides a complete bed, bible and mosquito net. And a child can be protected from malaria for only $8.
We know too much already. And this week has shown us so much more. Will you join Sweet Sleep in providing rest and protection to these children who need it most? Visit www.sweetsleep.org to give.
With love from under a mosquito net in Northern Uganda,
