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. |
