Ernest in Ghana

We corresponded with Ernest in April 2016 for a few days until his sponsor decided to begin writing again. But I think God had him on our account for a few days so that we will be praying for him! I still pray for all the kids we've ever sponsored.


We never received a letter while corresponding with Ernest. His birthday is October 9. Ernest lives with his grandmother.
