Sylvano the little boy who was carried through our gates in February because he was too weak to walk and so malnourished that all of his bones were visible….
Although we prayed for Sylvano, he continued to loose weight in hospital and the last time we saw Sylvano in hospital…..Sylvano had deteriorated so much further that the skin on his face hung over his bones….it was heartbreaking to see….
Sylvno’s weeping mother called us to say that the hospital had moved Sylvano into the room for the worst cases, which she called ‘the room of no hope’.
We prayed with Sylvano’s mum and tried to encourage her by saying - because of Jesus there is always hope and we continued to pray and believe for a miracle….
The whole community here in Madagascar is amazed and has been weeping and rejoicing- because Jesus has healed Sylvano. It is such an incredible, miraculous transformation.
Sylvano’s face where skin hung over the bone structure on his face is now chubby and full…..and at the end of April, little Sylvano walked through our gates unaided for the first time, radiantly smiling because Jesus has healed him.
Sylvano says that he wants to be a pastor when he is older.
