FROM “BUSH BUNNY BRENDA”
DATE: OCTOBER 13, 2018 |
TEN ORPHANS RECEIVE NEW BEDS IN THEIR NEW HOME Thanks to a very generous donor in San Antonio, TX, our orphaned/abandoned group of 8 children (ages 3 to 12), plus 2 small infants, now live in a new, very comfortable “super complex”. The kids were so very excited to move in last week, and could not stay out of their new sand box play area, so that is where I took the photo! If you count heads you will notice that a friend of one of the older boys snuck into the photo. Oh well, they are a happy family for sure! The 2 large bedrooms plus Foster Mother accommodation is accented by a large indoor cooking/eating area featuring 2 “kid sized” tables. Two bathing/toilet areas and an additional “roofed and concrete floored” outdoor eating/play area makes it plenty big enough for this large family. This “super model” of orphan complexes took a year to build, but it was much needed with so many young, growing children. As you know, kids need “room to grow”, and now they have it! THANK YOU for putting smiles on their little faces, for they know that Jesus truly loves them. One foster mother stated that this home surpasses anything she had ever hoped to live in. FOUR FOOD GIVE OUTS IN 4 DAYS … makes for a happy, but very tired “Food Distribution Team”. Loading and Unloading 15.3 TONS of corn and beans this week is no easy feat, but our group “goes the extra mile” so that hungry orphans can stay healthy. We are “pushing” to get the food distributions completed as soon as possible, for weather signs are pointing towards an early rainy season. A hard rain last week, followed by dark clouds every day this week is making everyone a bit nervous. The rainy season isn’t supposed to begin till late November. Thank you to all who make this program possible, for it saves the lives of those who are the future of Mozambique. Happy Village Orphans gather to say THANK YOU for your Love Gifts so they can eat a better diet. Two older orphans show off their soap gifts. The number of soap pieces reveals how many orphans live in that household with their granny. This Granny and her 2 grandchildren walked several miles to fetch their food portion. Your love gifts provide new clothes each year. New clothes are being made for over 1,100 orphans as I write, and will be distributed in early November. Each food give out begins with a Devotion Time. Pastor Fred teaches from a Bible Story to all who will receive your gifts. ELEVEN CHURCHES were planted in remote villages over the last 8 years because our Food Team took the Word of God to over 1000 spiritually hungry villagers at each food give out. TOGETHER, WE ARE IMPACTING THE MULTITUDES OF THIS AREA WITH THE LOVE OF JESUS! ONE DAY AT A TIME. UNTIL NEXT WEEK. BLESSINGS TO YOU ALL, BUSH BUNNY BRENDA LANGE AND HER BALAMA “SUPER” STAFF |
