## Resource

Rebecca Pratt shares the remarkable story of how Orphan Relief and Rescue began—with just $3,400 and a calling to serve children in Liberia, West Africa. Rebecca takes us back to the early days of the ministry, navigating vehicle breakdowns, cultural barriers, and overwhelming obstacles. Through every challenge, faith remained the foundation. From unexpected local support—including assistance from a former president—to the strength of relationships built on trust and prayer, Rebecca reflects on how God provided at every turn. She also recounts the miraculous survival of a young girl named Teresa, who battled cerebral malaria. In a moment that could have ended in tragedy, prayer and local intervention became part of a story that still testifies to hope and divine intervention today. Throughout the conversation, Rebecca emphasizes the power of small acts of kindness and how obedience in seemingly small steps can create lasting impact, while Deb Baliko reflects on the broader implications of kindness, community, and the role of the body of Christ in sustaining mission work. Together, they explore how collective prayer, generosity, and faith can transform lives—both locally and globally. This episode is a reminder that no act of love is too small, and when we move in faith, God multiplies the impact.
