No two days here are the same
and that is something I love about life here. You never know what lies ahead
but it is never dull.
The secondary school teachers
and students in a neighboring village were very excited to receive supplemental
textbooks from a benefactor in France. Thank you Dawn for making this happen!

So happy to receive books
|
I will never grow tired of seeing the beautiful
babies born in our nearby maternity. What a blessing this facility has been to
the village. We love living so close to the maternity. It provides an
opportunity to visit the mamas and bring gifts to celebrate their new addition.
Thanks so much to all who send blankets and baby clothing.

Our milk program continues to provide
supplemental nourishment for at risk babies. Babies continually graduate from
the program and are quickly replaced by others in need.

This widow cannot see and is not mobile due to an accident years ago. Members
of her extended family care her for. She just wanted to dance and sing when she
received her gifts from the widow sponsorship program. More widows are
available if you would like to help. The donation is $20 a month.
 |
| Such a grateful widow! |
We traveled to various orphanages to visit
children who are waiting for their "forever families". I must admit
that I wanted to take them all home with me.
