dear friends that follow every step of our lives here. We’ve got here all the

Visit with Auntie & Uncle |
KIKAROMOJA SLUM VIST - We recently went with the children
who originally cam from the Kikaramoja slum to go visit their relatives with a few
gifts. It was such a touching moment seeing how far the Lord had brought
these children from. Some of them were happy to see their relatives, but some
even refused to talk to them or even stay with them for a minite without us.
These are
relatives of the 5 sisters [Brenda, Christine, Carol, Racheal and Angela]. We
visited their auntie who took care of them after their parent’s death. And on
extreme left, is their uncle who lives in the watoto childrens home but had also
come to visit the auntie. The girls were soo happy to see him again after a long
time.

THE LONG WAITED ARRIVAL OF THE
CONTAINER.
It was great
joy for everyone in the village, both young and old when our container that our
dear Australian friends sent us arrived after a long time of waiting. We are
grateful to God for this success and also to the people that gave. Thank you for
loving us and blessing us as well with these wonderful things.
