Goodness of God brings good news! Mike was able to purchase what we call “the tooth” (the 1/4 acre parcel of land that jutted up into our property) so that is great. Also, we went and looked at the place (home) where we are going to be staying for the month of July and it is perfect! Close to the property, big, beautiful, and just perfect- we are very thankful. Thursday we went to be with the kids at the feeding program. We had a good time with them and administered cleanser and band-aids to several cuts and scrapes (the kinds of things that happen all the time to these kids who live out on the streets). When they had their church service they invited us up to greet them. When KaLia greeted them she told them that they were more special to her than her pets at home (and then Mike had to explain to them what a big deal that was, how special pets are to her). They got so happy about that they gave KaLia a gift- they did a special African dance for her to the beat of the drum there. It was awesome!
We are getting boundary posts set up at the property and had the man there today who will do the topographical map for us. Once that’s completed then we will get the architect to put together some drawings and plans.
It’s finally warm weather here today! We are all well and doing fine, although KaLia does think about her pets a lot! (and tonight she was really wanting a hamburger!) Your prayers are vital to this ministry and our family. We thank God for all he has done, and we know he is at work, going before us to prepare the way for what needs to be done in the future. Your continued prayers for God to bless Ten Talents International, for God to enable us to go further in the work he has called us to, for his provision for the work, as well as for our family, are essential.
Thank You!
Lisa
P.S. Here is a picture of Gilbert (see my post from last month titled “Gilbert”). Please pray for him and all the children who remain vulnerable on the streets.
