This
past week we were visiting Nonfesso, a small neighboring village of
Kimini, and the director of
the school had lined up over 100 children
needing sponsors. The children's stories are all very similar. . . too many
children in the family, father not able to grow enough grain to feed
his family, no money for the most basic medical care, no money to
send the children to school, etc.

The children were almost all
barefoot and wearing clothes that would not even be found on our rag
shelf.
The
needs of the children here are overwhelming. God has sent Linda and
I here to do what we can. And, we cannot turn our backs on their
needs.
We
asked the director and the teachers to choose 25 children with the
greatest needs. We have signed these children up for sponsorship and
when they are all sponsored, we will add 25 more to our waiting list.

For just $35 a
month, you will
send a child to school, provide books and school
supplies, provide a food distribution for the family in June and in
December, and provide medical care as needed.
Would
you please help us to care for these children?
