Autistic Filipino Boy Needs Help With Therapy

Within Reach Global

A skin condition called Hypomelanosis of Ito. Autism. Mental Retardation. Seven year old Christian and his mother really need help.

Everyone’s got problems. We know that there are things in your life that take your time and energy, and weigh heavy on your heart. But would you mind taking a moment to reflect on how blessed you truly are as you read this post, and see if God speaks to your heart about being an instrument of blessing to those less fortunate than you?

Christian is an active Filipino boy who loves to smile. Though he is surrounded by huge challenges, his shining face triggers a hope that God’s hands are big enough to embrace even the most impossible situations.

His mother shared some of his needs with Within Reach Global, and we felt compelled to reach out our hands to this family.

As a single mother, she is struggling to provide the therapy Christian needs on a daily basis. On top of that, he needs a private teacher so that he will continue to grow and learn in an environment that fits his needs.

“Christian’s daily therapy costs $11.00 per session,” she told us. “But I don’t know how I can pay these prices.”

As she was sharing, we thought of the scripture in James 1:27:
“Pure and genuine religion in the sight of God the Father means caring for orphans and widows in their distress…”

Honestly it’s a small price to pay to help a family in their difficult time. Would you consider paying for one day of Christian’s therapy? It’s only $11.00. Or one week for $77.00? Maybe you feel inclined to give one month’s worth of therapy, a total of $330.00. Every little bit counts.

We simply want to be a small part of the big thing God is doing in the nations, and we felt that this was a perfect way for someone to jump on board and help with Christian’s situation.
