This posting is long overdue ….. apologies. With so much travelling and running I finally got to it. Enjoy!! Thanks to the generous gifts of so many we were able to light up the lives of many orphans.
We currently have 800 orphans scattered around the country. Although we could’nt take all of them for a special treat they too recieved their gifts far away. Throughout the year the orphans are being cared for and recieve a monthly food pack, blankets, medical treatment. We also take care of all their educational needs.
And yes because photos say so much more ….. I will let the pics tell the story of one of the biggest parties ever for our kids:
Photo 1: To get everyone together was not as easy as it looks. Front row (left) is Jorge Antonio who is our Regional Orphan Co-ordinator.
Photo 2: We started the day with a traditional Portugeuse dish. And my goodness – was that “maningi nice” as we say here. We took the 30 orphans with the widows who looked after them to a restaurant about 60 km away.
Photo 3: “How do they expect me to finish this plate by myself?”
A special word of thanks to all who helped to make this possible. Thank you to David Phillips and the whole family from Godalming, England. You changed lives in the process.
