People gave & now Alice & Claude (along with their mom & younger brothers) will be moving into a new home! There is still work to be done on the house to bring it up to the ideal, and we will be looking to raise more funds to cover the upgrades to the home. The team going in September will get to be a blessing to this family by helping to work on their home! One of our volunteers from the US got to be there for the signing of the papers & hopefully I will be able to post pictures for you when she returns.

If you are interested in going with us to Rwanda in September please contact us! Our next team meeting will be happening in March & we still have room for more people to join us!

Praise God for what he is doing & we keep looking to him for more & more!
Blessings,
Lisa

On February 15th is our next informational meeting for the June mission trip to Ensenada, Mexico. It is not too late for you to join us! February 22nd is the next meeting for the September trip to Rwanda. More info is on our short term mission trips page.

Exciting news! Do you know about the “Home for Alice” project? Alice & her brother are both sponsored under Ten Talents Int. They, along with their 2 very young siblings and single mother, live together in a very bleak home. The only toilet is a hole in the ground (completely exposed) between their home and another home. The tin roof is full of holes and the rain in Rwanda can come down hard & fast many times. Here is a picture of the family outside their house now:

Our organization has decided that we can help this family. We have been raising funds so we can purchase a modest, but decent home for this family to move into. We have found a newly built house that would be a safe & livable for the family. What a blessing this will be!

So, the exciting news is that we are only $500 away from the amount we need to purchase the home for this family! So close! The children’s mother works hard to care for them and supports them by buying vegetables from the market & then reselling them in other areas, but the amount she is able to make is not enough to change their current living situation- but we can make a difference! If you would like to give, you can do so through our giving page here on the website, or by mailing a gift to our office.

Praise God for bringing us this far!
Blessings,
