Lives are being changed for the better – and bringing real hope to the hard-to-reach! In rural Mozambique, Feba staff found an unusual, practical way to help one of their listeners. Thanks to our supporters’ generosity. Radio can reach remote people and places. 
Last July we heard from colleagues at FM Muthyana in Maputo, Mozambique. They told us that listener 29-year-old Celeste Chopo had sent the producers a text message explaining that she had been bed-ridden for the past 13 years.
Struck by a paralysis that has left her unable to walk and with disability in her arms, Celeste has spent the years lying alone in a small hut.
Celeste found comfort in Feba’s programmes, having received the Lord Jesus via radio. After Celeste contacted the station, Feba staff travelled to Chiteval, her small village which has neither clean water nor electricity, to meet Celeste. They prayed with her and gave a new radio and batteries to Celeste and her family.
Funds donated generously 
Staff alerted international Feba colleagues of Celeste’s plight. Her story was published and circulated among Feba’s supporters and partners and, generously, funds were donated sufficient to buy a wheelchair to help Celeste become mobile.
Working together in faith
The staff were accompanied by a nurse from a public health clinic in the area who had previously been unaware of Celeste and her condition. Now she visits Celeste for physiotherapy to improve her mobilit
In the past Celeste was carried to the local church about 2 miles down the mountain. Now she’s able to travel there more frequently to praise the Lord together with others in the community.
