  1. Free Foot Surgery For African Teen

    A teen from the African nation of Zambia has feet that are size 17 but after two surgeries, his feet will be about size 13. Anderson Mambwe suffers from a condition similar to Elephantiasis.  Our cameras were there when Anderson was baptized  at St John Lutheran Church recently. OMNI Missions and Seeds of Hope brought the teen from Zambia .  Friday we spoke with him before he went into surgery. He was upbeat as he spoke with Karen ReMine, a registered nurse who will host Anderson at her home during recovery.  “He's waited for a long time probably 5 years of pain,” said ReMine.
