Senegal Boy Receives Life-Changing Eating Disorder Treatment
"Life is hard ... Having a child who was born without the ability to eat," said Ndeye. Ndeye's only son Cheikh was born with a cleft lip and a cleft palate. As a result of this he struggled to breastfeed. His mother bottle fed him infant formula, trying desperately to ensure her baby had the nutrition he needed. Swallowing was difficult and Cheikh developed an aversion to food.
Watch what happened next for Cheikh on his road to recovery thanks to treatment on board the Christian medical ship The Africa Mercy on Senegal.

Billy Graham Statue Unveiled at U.S. Capitol
For House Speaker Mike Johnson, last Thursday’s ceremony was more than just unveiling another bronze statue at the U.S. Capitol.
It was far bigger than the 7-foot statue of Billy Graham pointing to the open Word of God. This statue will be installed in the Crypt—one level below the Rotunda where every public tour of the U.S. Capitol begins.
“Millions of people will walk by and read John 14:6 and John 3:16,” Johnson said. “What a story to tell as we bring school kids through and university students and constituents, they’ll stop right here. And at the base of the foundation those two verses will be shared broadly.
“I think it’s the perfect placement.”
