“How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation.”
Isaiah 52:7

Richard is one of thousands of children who are walking around our planet without shoes today. Some don’t have shoes because their parents don’t have a job; others because their parents live with wars that have destroyed everything. And many, like Richard, don’t have shoes because they do not have parents – Richard’s mom and dad died of AIDS when he was a baby. He is one of the 18 million children orphaned due to AIDS in Sub-Saharan Africa. Next time you lace up your shoes, consider praying for those who would love to have the peace, wealth, and blessings of parents and a country that have allowed us the privilege to tie our shoes today.
