Ethel, was born with clubfoot, a condition where her feet curved inward, making it difficult for her to walk, play, or live like other children her age.

For years, she endured the physical and emotional pain of the condition, which followed her into her teenage years.

Her story took a hopeful turn when she crossed paths with Rev. Blessing, a local pastor who had just attended a CURE Malawi training session titled "The Theology of Disability."

The training focused on God’s heart for people with disabilities, challenging harmful beliefs that often associate disability with shame or curse.

When Rev. Blessing met Ethel, he shared what he had learned, that her condition was not a curse, and that children like her are loved by God and filled with purpose.

More than just encouraging words, he informed her that her condition could be corrected through free surgery at Beit CURE International Hospital, Malawi.. Taking it upon himself, the pastor personally accompanied her to the hospital.

Three years later, Ethel’s transformation is undeniable. She now walks with confidence on straightened feet, attends school, helps her family, and lives with a new sense of possibility.
