Patricia Heaton Instills Hope in South Sudan

It’s always refreshing to hear of a celebrity stepping up and doing their part. This past spring, actress Patricia Heaton, known for her roles on the television shows “Everybody Loves Raymond” and “The Middle,” visited Uganda with a humanitarian group to help South Sudanese refugees, who fled their homes to avoid starvation, violence, and poverty. Heaton visited the nation to deliver food, share prayers, and instill a sense of hope in the community.

An outspoken Christian, she pleaded with her fans and followers to send their support to the refugees in the form of prayers. More than 700 prayers poured in from fans all over the country, and Heaton shared these words of hope with the refugees, showing them that there are people who care about their plight.

While people such as Heaton are doing their part to help the war-torn region, there is still much work to be done for the people of South Sudan. Hopefully, more celebrities and prominent figureheads will follow Heaton’s example and help fight against the atrocities occurring all over the world.
