Stories of Pain, Resistance and Hope
As we started to process the experiences of grieving mothers and wives of tokhang victims, we also try our best to help the children make sense of this painful reality of their lives. Some of these innocent faces have seen with their own eyes how their fathers were murdered. Looking at Taken during the SOW Meeting in Payatas B, Quezon City on April 22, 2017. This is our 8th meeting. In these sessions, the widows share their stories of deep pain and joy, of everyday struggles and hope after the death of their beloved. Each one tries to help the other in finding a job, taking care of the children, in managing a small business to make both ends meet. We only see "the linen in the tomb" but their stories tell us that Jesus is risen. We thank those who are helping us. You have helped them rebuild their lives.
