| OUR FAMILY AT IT’S BEST—READY TO EAT! Our children are growing up, as we now have all but 24 little ones at the bi-monthly luncheon feast every other Saturday. Once the little ones can eat “big people food” then they are allowed to join in the fun at the CIS parties. |
 Most of our family at CIS party last week. |
MORE CHILDREN JOIN OUR FOOD PROGRAM Both these families have been overwhelmed with orphans, so at the request of Social Services, they were admitted into our food program. A special donor has contributed funds that allows orphans from 12 to 16 to enter the food program. The first family has only a father and an aunt, who is looking after the baby. The mother died in childbirth. All 5 of the children are seriously malnourished, and thus they qualify for food assistance even though they have a father. The family’s farming field yielded very little this year during the April harvest, and the children were going hungry. We will give them a helping hand for a year, allowing them time to organize a better harvest in 2027. |
 Family of 5 kids who lost their mother. Aunt cares for the baby while father cares for the 4 older children. |
| The 2nd family is headed by an aunt who has taken in her deceased sister’s 4 children. Ranging from ages 2 to 14, (the 14-year-old is behind the aunt, camera shy), these children are true orphans with no mother or father. The aunt has 5 of her own children to feed, and is struggling to manage 4 more. These malnourished little ones have all been added to our Thursday food program give out, thanks to the love of our donor family. |
 Aunt caring for her Sister’s 4 malnourished children, requested food help as her field didn’t yield enough for all these children. |
| BBC HELPS MANY CHILDREN TO KNOW CHRIST Pedal power has not slowed our 3 BBC teams, as they saw many children accept Jesus into their hearts during April. Our 3 Bicycle Teams taught the Bible to 25,048 children with 1,782 NEW CHILDREN receiving Christ as their Lord and Savior.Amazing for sure, but God is moving here among the children in an awesome way! THANK YOU SO ALL OF YOU WHO GIVE SO THAT OUR STAFF CAN CONTINUE WORKING TO BRING JESUS TO THE PEOPLE OF OUR AREA. BLESSINGS, BUSH BUNNY BRENDA LANGE AND THE BALAMA STAFF |
