Our First Fruits

As Neal and I trust God for great things one day, we are trying to be faithful with the little that we are given now. We are so excited about our little vegetable garden in the back yard of our apartment! We feel like proud parents as we show you the "first fruits" of our garden. Our first tomato is a beautiful reminder that God keeps His promises and that our dreams will be realized one day. In the mean time we are fully committed to the place and ministry that we are in. We are learning all that we can everyday.

First Aid/CPR training

Everyday we encounter hundreds of children, youth and adults at our centre. It often occurs to me that the Lord really protects our kids from harm because our building is old and our children like to take risky chances. For years, I have been concerned that a child would choke at our feeding scheme, or fall from our Learning Centre loft, and we would not be equipped to save those children. Therefore, I have done a lot of research and have found a First Aid/CPR training course that will equip our staff to help in such emergency situations. The Lord provided us a donor from Germany who backed our vision of safety, and has paid to have 15 of our staff certified. We have recently hosted the First Aid/CPR training and invited representatives from other NGOs, churches, and daycares in our area to also learn how to handle emergency situations. I have so much peace knowing that we have 23 new "first responders" in our community trained and able to serve better than before.
