Make room for someone like Maya this winter
Referred to her local hospital after being diagnosed with leprosy, Maya was told there was “no room”. The doctors there refused to treat her. These were the same words Mary and Joseph heard when they arrived in the town of Bethlehem and no one would take them in.
People affected by leprosy like Maya understand these feelings of rejection. They have often faced the same treatment with family members and their communities. But no leprosy patient should be turned away when they need urgent care.
Right now, Leprosy Mission hospitals in India need your support so that people like Maya can receive vital leprosy care. After a tough year that left them at breaking point, your faithfulness can keep these essential leprosy services there going through the dark winter nights. Now, more than ever, people with leprosy need your help.
A gift of £34 will provide a bed for a patient like Maya as they recover from surgery, while £136 could provide everything they need for a longer stay in hospital. Will you make room in your heart for people affected by leprosy?
