We are currently in a very exciting time at the orphanage. The opportunities for us to make a real difference in this poor nation, are huge!
.
We are now very well set up at the orphanage with a great facility, where the most needy of children come into our care. They receive medical support, 3 meals a day and 24 hour supervised care. Our orphanage is an oasis for these children, offering a safe and loving environment, before we carefully place them in families through the local church, to live as normal a life as possible. We have a large well with an ample supply of fresh running water, and a team of ladies who lovingly care for the children.
.
With an estimated 12 million aids orphans in Africa, our heart is to reach out and make the largest impact we can, by helping as many as we can.
.
Having battled our way through many problems and difficulties, the only thing that is stopping us make a big impact now, is money!
.
Even out in Mozambique, we also have been hard hit by the world resession. Our British pound has depreciated by around 25%. What used to cost us £15 per month, twelve months ago, to care for the needs of one child, now costs us £20.
.
As before,100% of your financial gift is sent out to the orphanage, where it is desperately needed. No deduction is made for administration.
.
We are determined not to slacken off our programme, of bringing needy children into our care. However last week, Martha had to turn away two destitute chchildren, since there was no sponsorship money to support them! As I received the news my heart sank.

I now feel compelled to do what a bible verse says, which was recently brought to my attention, "to plead the cause of the poor and needy." Proverbs 31:8-9
.
I am not ashamed to tell you that we need more support now!
.
If you are currently supporting us financially would you consider raising your support?
.
Or, if you know of anyone else, who may like to come on board, and be part of this exciting work, then please steer them to our web site, where they can watch the on line DVD, (click twice on top left picture on the home page).
.
There is also a form to down load and fill in, with the person's details, Or simply text me, and I`ll send out a DVD and a form straight away. We gladly accept one-off gifts, or regular monthly contributions.
.
Thank you so much for journeying with us, as we all seek to make the biggest impact we can, amongst some of the poorest children in the world, in the nation of Mozambique.
