La historia de Joseph, Shiro y David / The story of Joseph, Shiro and David


La historia de Joseph, Shiro y David me hablan también de la regla social de reciprocidad que comentaba anteriormente. 

Joseph Chege, el fundador de Bethany Village Home, creció en una barriada (slum) de Nairobi. No habría tenido acceso a la educación si no fuera por misioneros norteamericanos que apoyaron su formación incluso cuando ya habían regresado a EEUU.

David es el suegro de Joseph. Huérfano desde muy corta edad, conoció la generosidad y la solidaridad entre los miembros de su comunidad que le dieron un techo y ayudaron a ir a la escuela

Ambos, con Shiro, esposa de Joseph e hija de David, forman el equipo que sostiene Bethany Village Home económica y humanamente. Dedican su vida a posibilitar el cambio de vida, mediante el acceso a la educación, de este grupo de niñas.

En estos días de Navidad, en los que parece que estamos más sensibles a la solidaridad, comparto esta visión  de la  reciprocidad  que yo he tenido el privilegio de conocer en estas tres personas.

The story of Joseph, Shiro and David also tells me of the social rule for reciprocation to which I refer in a previous post.

Joseph Chege, founder of Bethany Village Home, grew up in one of the slums around Nairobi. He would not have had access to education were it not for the generosity and solidarity of North American missionaries.

David is Joseph’s father in law. An orphan from an early age, and his family originating from a village in the countryside he was the recipient of the generosity and solidarity of members of his community that gave him shelter and helped him go to school.

Both, together with Shiro, Joseph’s wife and David’s daughter, make up the team that sustain Bethany Village Home, financially and humanly. They dedicate their lives to facilitate life changes, through access to education, to this group of young girls.

During this Christmas period, in which we seem to be more sensitive to solidarity, I share this vision of reciprocation which I have had the privilege of knowing through these three wonderful people.
