During the wet season, temperature can reach as [...]

I went on my first mission trip as an 11-year-old in 6th grade. Just a short one-week trip to Mexico with our church and a sister church, where I did a lot of the same things our youth did in Nicaragua. Some of you may be surprised that I went at such a young age and why I did so. I went because of my parents, who I’m sure had [...]

This year, my child and I participated again in the Africa Cries Out Mission Trip in Senegal, and my heart was still full of anticipation as the first time.

As someone who has never been to Africa before, I was very excited and nervous during the trip and was always wondering what else would be in store. The work was exciting, but even if it sometimes felt monotonous, there was still a clear purpose and a sense of accomplishment in the work I was doing. For example, on the first day, I ended up spending a few hours just [...]

Earlier last year, I joined my mother on a two-week long medical mission and encountered first-hand the bleak reality of rural Senegal. Organized by the Africa Cries Out Foundation, the trip was supplied with large bags of different kinds of medications to provide for the local community.

  I consider myself a “good person.” Who doesn’t? I’m kind, I study hard, and I walk the dog. I even put money in my church’s offering basket. I lived in such complacency for my entire life.

I finished my to-do lists to [...]

即將進行割禮的女孩，滿臉恐懼。     我們團隊的志願工作者從2013年起，一直在西非塞內加爾做義工。親眼看見許多令人心碎但又充滿希望的故事，他們的遭遇使我們不得不奮起努力。 女孩割禮 千年陋習 女性割禮（Female Genital Mutilation），是非洲幾千年來的陋習，為了保持女性的純潔，不被男性污染，女孩從出生一周起，就要剃光頭，用小刀在頭上切幾道傷口，以後隔幾年就要在頭上切幾道傷口。等到青春期，就要有一個只有女性參加的儀式。 成年女人戴著面具，唱著古老的歌曲，將被宰割的少女抓手按腳，由一位沒有任何醫學訓練的老女人，不用麻藥，更沒有無菌操作，只是用一把刀片將少女的大、小陰唇甚至是陰蒂切掉，用麻線將陰道縫合，只留一個小口，讓經血流出。因此許多女性手術後，無法排尿；尿道和陰道造成瘺管，感染發熱，死亡率很高。劇烈的疼痛讓所有的女孩子望而生畏，但是社會習俗卻像一把巨大的風扇，把她們推向苦難的深淵。 安娜帶著女兒抗議對女孩進行割禮。      索馬里女詩人Dahabo Musa在1988年寫下了一首詩，將女性割禮給婦女帶來的痛苦描述為「女性的三重悲苦」：手術本身長達十幾年過程的痛苦；結婚之夜，陰道重新切開的痛苦；生孩子的時候，再切一次，讓孩子的頭從產道裡分娩而出的痛苦。 女詩人沒有說出來的第四重悲苦是，如果丈夫因為某種原因要離開妻子外出，家裡的女人們會將這位妻子的外陰重新縫合，等待丈夫回家，這位可憐的妻子，又要重複以上的痛苦。 2000年，安娜女士懷著為社會做貢獻的志向，隻身一人來到了塞內加爾痲瘋村──法地閣，不久她就遇到了一個大挑戰。有一天一位少女偷偷地告訴她，她不得不去做女性割禮，邀請她去參加她的切除儀式。安娜女士瞭解到了什麼是女性割禮以後，立即對這個女孩說，「我要去抗議。」 完成割禮的女孩，親友們給了她2000非洲法郎作為賀禮。     安娜女士的抗議，猶如一滴雨水掉入了一個沉悶的大湖，沒有激起任何迴響，這個女孩被七、八個婦女按住手腳，在沒有任何麻醉和無菌的條件下，硬生生地割去了女孩的一部分性器官。完成割禮後的女孩，親友們給了她2000非洲法郎（約3美元）作為賀禮。 在痲瘋村法地閣，百分之百的中年以上的女性都接受了割禮。如果女孩子不受割禮，全村的人都認為她是污穢不潔的，她將嫁不出去。 怎麼辦？怎麼辦？安娜女士的心中像被火灼燒一樣，熾烈的疼痛讓她夜不能眠，一定要救救這些女孩子。 乞討的男孩滿臉憂鬱。 男孩乞討 愁容滿面 2013年5月在去痲瘋村的路上，我們醫療隊停車加油，一群衣衫襤褸的孩子圍住我們的車要錢要飯。 其中有一個孩子，皺著眉頭，穿了一件大人的T恤衫，髒兮兮的皮膚上長滿了疥蟎。我們給了他們一些麵包，憂鬱男孩展露出笑容。 乞討的男孩得到了麵包後綻放笑容。     為什麼成群的男孩子都在街上要飯？為什麼他們眼中沒有光彩只有痛苦？為什麼他們小小的年齡卻有大人一般壓力山大的愁容？為什麼沒有女孩子要飯？女孩子應該更加容易要到錢財？當地同工們讓我知道了一個巨大蜘蛛網般的黑幕。 麻利埠（Marabout）是一個分布在西非各國的伊斯蘭教育機構，歷史上許多伊斯蘭的教師和宗教領袖都被稱為麻利埠，他們是屬於伊斯蘭兄弟會的一個分支。 圍著汽車乞討的男孩。     在塞內加爾，人均壽命50歲，每一個婦女平均生產5個孩子，嬰兒平均死亡率50%。 因為大部分家庭裡孩子有一半都養不活，麻利埠們便說：「反正你們有一半的孩子要死去，還不如交給我們？」他們半哄半騙地將貧窮的家庭五歲以上的孩子騙到手「免費代養和教育」。絕大部分的窮人家不放心把女孩子交給外人，所以只會把男孩子交給他們。 這些可憐的孩子只要一到麻利埠的手中，每個孩子每天就必須上交200非洲法郎，也就是40美分。塞內加爾的成人也只能一天賺取2000非洲法郎。可蘭經規定，成人每天必須將收入的十分之一救助窮人，因此這筆錢就由麻利埠們手下的孩子們代為收取。 典型的麻利埠學校。 麻利埠們 占地為王 僅僅在塞內加爾，大約有5萬多麻利埠孩子在街上要飯乞錢，麻利埠每天就有100萬非洲法郎的進帳。天長日久，他們積累了巨大的財富，他們包攬訴訟，搶奪民財，強拉孩子加入伊斯蘭教，他們用金錢和宗教來影響和操縱國家。 我們有一次走過一條高速公路，看見在高速上有一個莊園，所有的汽車都必須彎道繞過它，當地同工告訴我們，這是一位麻利埠大佬的家，他占住這塊土地，沒有人敢惹他。 2013年3月3日，至少9名麻利埠孩子因為沒有乞討到200非洲法郎的定額，被關在一個黑房間裡。搖曳的燭光照耀著愁眉苦臉的孩子，飢餓的嘈蟲發出咕咕的響聲。突然蠟燭燈台倒了下來，火苗點燃了乾燥的牆壁。 「救命，救命！」孩子們拚命搖著緊鎖的大門，不到幾分鐘，烈焰吞沒了孩子們的哭喊，鮮活的生命化做一縷青煙。 慘案發生以後，紐約時報和一些法國報紙作了詳細報導，塞內加爾總統Macky Sall發表講話，聲稱一定要嚴懲兇手，可是兩個月以後，法庭認為這些孩子的死亡是因為「上帝要他們回家。」所有涉案的麻利埠被無罪釋放。塞內加爾的大街小巷依然隨處可見「免費代養和上學」的苦命孩子。 這些孩子到了青春反叛期，麻利埠不願意管束，就把他們趕出學校。他們大字不識，沒有謀生技能，只有偷盜搶劫，給社會帶來巨大不穩定因素。所以我們在塞內加爾，晚上從不出去。白天也只有在當地同工的帶領下去一些安全的地方。 孩子們的悲慘遭遇，像一把鈍刀磨銼撕裂我們的心。怎麼辦？我們沒有錢，沒有資源，沒有影響政府的能力，也無法正面與麻利埠衝突。但是我們一直認為我們應該做點什麼？雖然我們無法救所有的孩子，但是我們覺得救了一個是本分，救多了就是賺到，我們必須做出我們的貢獻。 非洲哭泣團隊一致認定辦學校是最好的辦法。有一天，奧利弗先生把我們帶到基地空地說：「我們十年前就買了這塊地，因為沒有錢，無法蓋學校，你們是否有辦法？」 作者徐俊與奧利弗先生在基地的空地上。     回到美國，我們立即成立了由徐俊醫生擔任主席的美國非洲哭泣基金會，美國政府也很快正式批准我們的免稅待遇。 面對一張張痛苦的小臉，無處不在的需求，我們只有很小的信心，做一點算一點，信心就像一顆芥菜種，開始很小，慢慢卻長成了一棵參天大樹。 八年來，在全世界各地愛心人士的支持下，在世界日報讀者的關懷下，我們從無到有，居然建成了技術學校，其間許多動人的故事，時刻激勵我們前行。 安德森和安德麗莎還有女兒艾蘭娜，非洲炎熱的陽光把一家三口曬得黝黑。 巴西夫婦 非洲扎根 巴西聖保羅社會工作者安德森先生在一個慈善活動中，認識了安德麗莎，一位非常漂亮的銀行高級經理。他們二人一起為聖保羅的窮人送餐，一起辦窮人孩子的夏令營。共同的志向，讓他們產生愛情並結為夫妻，二人在聖保羅的高級住宅區購買了一個三房一廳的單元，並擁有兩部好車，生活充滿了希望。 安德森先生在非洲。     2012年他們認識了在幾內亞比索辦學校做慈善事工的奧利弗先生，奧利弗先生告訴他們，能夠為改變別人的生命，拯救被麻利埠摧殘的男孩子，拯救被封建陋習被迫接受割禮的女孩子，將是他們一輩子最幸福的事情。 奧利弗先生的話，深深地感動這對夫妻，他們變賣了自己的房子和汽車，拿著所有的錢，來到了比索。為了拯救這些孩子，他們到處募捐，開辦學校，他們也將自己帶來的錢投入到學校，並且在比索買了一處住所，決心在非洲扎下根來。 2014年，奧利弗先生告訴安德森夫婦，我們在塞內加爾基地正在修建技術學校，需要他們去支援。望著剛剛購買不久，花費了許多精力和時間裝修的新居，他們二話不說就賣了。 由於非洲法郎大量貶值，他們只賣了6000美元，帶去了基地。他們一到基地，就聽說基地需要購買一部皮卡車，正好6000美元，他們二話不說，就把自己口袋的錢掏了出來。他們用剩下的錢買了一張床，成了他們僅有的財產。 金錢可以買來許多東西，但是不一定可以買來高尚，不久安德麗莎就懷孕了。我對他們說：「你們的家也需要金錢，為什麼不給自己留一些？」安德麗莎說：「為了非洲的孩子，我願意捨棄一切！」 我的眼睛濕潤了，無私的靈魂像天火一樣，照亮了非洲貧瘠的夜空。為了拯救非洲孩子他們獻上一切。我們暗暗地下了決心，一定要拚命工作，籌措資金，把學校建成。 [...]

大砍刀下的感恩 徐俊2021年12月10日   巴蒂斯塔牧师是巴西长老会派到塞内加尔的宣教士，他们一家在那里已经六年了，今年11月17日他给我们发来了紧急要求代祷。 “你好我的兄弟姐妹们！这个黎明对我们来说太恐怖了！凌晨2点30分，一群人翻墙打开了大门。我们的卫兵尤里乌斯被惊醒后发现是抢匪就试图逃跑，这些人用大砍刀逼住他，然后走到厨房门口。我的妻子黛博拉听到了噪音，把我叫醒了！我起身走到厨房门口。我看到小偷试图用撬棍破门。我开始从里面扶着门，大声呼救。  我们的同事露西玛尖叫着，在绝望中和黛博拉一起把女儿们带到我们的房间，并呼叫胡丽娅快过来。他们设法打破了厨房的门，但我把门挡住了让他们不要进入。他们不停地推，我从里面尖叫着抓住门。有一名劫匪敲了敲前门，露西玛以为是胡丽娅就开了门，他们进入后，用大砍刀和斧头对准我，我没有与他们继续抗争。 他们使劲推搡我，打破了我办公室的门，逼着我告诉他们藏钱的保险箱，这里面有用于建堂的3600 美元，和用于扶贫的1400美元。他们打我，并索要车钥匙，得手后将我们关在房间里就逃跑了。 感谢上帝，女儿们只听到了尖叫声，黛博拉用我们的被子挡住了她们。上帝是奇妙的，将我们从狮子口中拯救出来！魔鬼对我们的项目进展感到愤怒！赞美主！我们走在正确的道路上！为我们、我们的心灵和我们的财务祷告！上帝会保佑的！  🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾 若昂·巴蒂斯塔牧师 - 塞内加尔🇸🇳” 在我们收到上面的代祷要求以后，我们华人弟兄姐妹立即为他们祷告。 第二天，安娜牧师报告“ 感谢所有为巴蒂斯塔牧师和他的家人祈祷的人。警方找回了这辆车。  🙏荣耀归于上帝。” 但是他们的钱没有被追回，巴蒂斯塔牧师心里非常焦急，这是建堂和济贫的款项，没有了这笔钱，主的事工无法继续。 巴蒂斯塔牧师虽然经过了死荫幽谷，但他还是不住地感谢神，让他像但以理一样，脱离了狮子的口。他的感恩祷告，感动了许多弟兄姐妹。有一位在威郡华人基督教会（WCCC）的姐妹，愿意捐献$2,500 美元，再加上“非洲哭泣”捐献$2,500 美元，立即补齐了亏空。我们感谢这位爱心姐妹的捐献，也感谢大家的祷告。我们是主的精兵，向神祷告的团队。 安娜牧师报告：“我今天早上和他说话了……他哭了很多……他简直不敢相信。这是来自上帝的奇妙神迹，他的信心大大更新了。感谢你们，现在成为上帝的工具。” 最新警方消息，这批匪帮共有十人，作案以后，第三天又去抢劫一家中国公司。报警后，警方与匪徒发生枪战，其中一名主犯被击毙，一名受伤，其余八名被捕。虽然钱不知去向，但是正义得到伸张，感谢上帝🙏。 弟兄姐妹，我们的非洲宣教士们，每天都在与艰苦的环境和难以忍受的罪犯作斗争，我们“非洲哭泣”的基地，有三位带枪的保安和两条猎狗，依然无法避免入室偷盗抢劫的行为。我们的宣教士们，从来不敢单身一人出门。但是，安娜牧师在那里过了24年，奥利弗牧师从1975年起，一直在那里传道。 “谁能使我们与基督的爱隔绝呢？难道是患难吗？是困苦吗？是逼迫吗？是饥饿吗？是赤身露体吗？是危险吗？是刀剑吗？如经上所记： 我们为你的缘故终日被杀；人看我们如将宰的羊。然而，靠着爱我们的主，在这一切的事上已经得胜有余了。”（罗马书 8:35-37 和合本) 阿们！ 如果您心中有感动，愿意支持我们的非洲事工，请写支票给Africa Cries Out, 寄给Jun Xu, MD,1171 E Putnam Avenue, Riverside, CT06878, USA, 或者Zelle：Africacriesout@gmail.com 您将会收到美国国税局认可的免税收据。 我们团队郑重宣告，您的捐款100%用于非洲人民，我们没有一分钱行政费用，我们团队去非洲，全部自费！感谢您的爱心支持！请访问我们的网站，您将可以看到我们的全部信息。如果您愿意参加我们的事工，请和徐俊医生联系。 徐俊微信 ：jun9174343767 电子邮件：Africacriesout@gmail.com 公共微信号：LifeExploring (人生天路) 网页：http://www.africacriesout.org             https://africacriesout.net

In Senegal, Africa, there are several "5"s that shock us. Every mother generally has to give birth to 5 children in her life. Almost 50% of the children die before they grow up. The average life expectancy of mothers is 50 years old. One of the important reasons is insufficient nutrition and nutritional imbalance. As you all know, we once reported that Ms. Anna temporarily hired a driver named Aibo, [...]

In 2017, Africa Cries Out donated an ultrasonic instrument to our operating base in Senegal. At that time, there were only two in Senegal, one in the national hospital and one for us. When Dr. Faye received this instrument, he was extremely grateful, as he could use it to save the lives of many more pregnant women and children. It was also an extremely good instrument for our gynecology operations [...]

Jun Xu, MD, Chairman of Africa Cries Out, August 5, 2019 In 2013, a group of volunteers—I among them—went to Senegal and Guinea-Bissau in West Africa. We witnessed the dust streets, the faces devoid of expression, the villages devastated by drought, and the patients short of medical care. Since then, the brown land of West Africa has been our spiritual home, and the memories of hungry children surrounding our [...]
