May 2019


Dear friends


I do believe you and your loved ones are doing just great. Remember that even if life sometimes go harder don't give up. God says „the mountains and hills may crumble but my love for you will never end'' Isaiah 54:10
Personally this very scripture kept me going There are many challenges we go though, sometimes I feel like giving up, living in a foreign country with people from different culture, who have completely different understanding, it is tough. All in all i know I m not alone, God is with me. I thank Him so much for much grace and directions I receive from Him every single day. I thank God also for you who stand with us in this particular ministry. Without your impact would be difficult.

I am happy to share with you our progress. From the time I last communicated with you lot's of things been done. We managed to BEGIN working on the fence, got 2 gates and started to replace wired fence with bricks. The project is still under going as we  lack funds but believing in God's time will be finished.
Apart from that we completed another class . We noticed that many small children started to come, we did not have a room for them, they were mixed with older kids which was difficult for a teacher to managed all of them in one tiny room.
Now the class split into two, we had to employ another teacher who took over the little ones.
At this very moment we would love to have one more teacher for older kids but salaries are the biggest problem. We can't afford to pay extra teacher right now.

We build as well toilets for boys, glory to God for his provision and of course for your support. 

The research for borehole been done not long ago. The report showed that water is deep down approximately 250m on a rocky ground. The estimated cost for drilling the borehole is beyond our pockets, that's why we created online fundraising to help us to collect needed amount. Every shilling is important. If we put hands together, invite other friends we will be able to make this dream come true. The good news it is : we already have over 2000$ for the borehole so it is not like we are starting from zero.

This season rains delayed a lot, in every corner people were struggling and lacking water. This also caused the prices of the food to shoot highly what made difficult not only for us but also for rest of the people.
We still don't have food support for all the kids, new semester just begun and we see more kids signing up for school. If anyone would like to support child ,buy him a meal please be in touch with us for more details.

Because of the weather changes we started to have running noses, catching up with cold and flu, please keep us in prayer so the Gods protection be upon all of us.

Not long from now we are expecting team from Poland coming over to continue working with children, sharing the good news and most likely love God poured into their hearts.
Please remember them in their prayers as they are preparing for this mission to come. May all their needs be met on time, may they do not lack heath and energy which will be needed here and may God uses every single person for His glory.

This is briefly to inform you what has been done and what is to come so you can continue to stand with us in prayer

With much love
Mirka and Henry Kalume
