Mom sends son to preschool as other children play in the yard

Each day that we are in Huruma we will send out teams of 2 to visit each family of the students.  Along with visiting and praying with each family we will give them a bag that contains a food package of maize, rice, oil, tea leaves & other essentials.  Each family will receive a Bible in Kiswahili, a first aid kit (provided by Women's Ministry), a coloring book & crayons for each student plus a T-Shirt & 2 pr. socks for a boy and a dress and 2 pr. socks for each girl.

Our team has received so many material donations that include a doll for ea. girl, a Hot Wheel car for each boy to be given to them this Christmas.  Along with those items we have 55 girl's uniforms, pens, pencils, extra fabric & sewing kit, toothbrushes & toothpaste provided by a local dentist.  Joy is setting up donations for coloring books and crayons at her work.
These beautiful sun dresses were made to give to each of the girls.

80 Bibles for each family @ $9.00 each
34 Children's Bibles for classrooms @ $9.00 each
