my

My name is Amelia Mabila Lauritano. I am originally from the R.D. of Congo, but I was raised in Italy (where I was adopted) and I have come to the US from France, where I have lived since 1999. My son's name is Yanis David F. ,and he is almost thirteen. He is a very talented young man. When we came to the US he couldn't speak English, but after just few a weeks, he started dreaming in English! Today, he speaks perfect English and French with no accent; now he is the one who corrects my English! Last year he started to have piano lessons for free; (it was a miracle how it happened!) and in January 2021, he was able to have his first recital and then in May the second one! I am organizing this fundraiser because I really need help to finish paying my son's tuition from this past semester, and also our rent and our move to Oklahoma Academy, where my son was recently accepted to continue his education in High School. By God's grace, I was able to finish paying my own tuition; yes, we are both students currently, striving to learn and serve the Lord! We came to the US in 2017 by faith, and since then, God  has been protecting us and helping us by sending sincere and kind Christians our way. Here are the details of our expenses:

Moving $1500

School Deposit $3000

Total $ 4500

Coming to the US has been a very humbling experience for me, because I usually don't like to ask for help, especially when it comes to

money; but, as the bible says, " We have not, because we ask not," and I guess it was also a way for God, to use other people to help us and

to demonstrate to us, that He has many different ways to show that He cares for us .

Your contributions whether big or small is greatly appreciated.

Thank you so much for being our blessing!

God bless you abundantly!

With love,

Amelia and Yanis
