We are in the middle of a Serenje focus at Kerith! We were hugely blessed by the visit from our Serenje friends, Bishop Samson Kasele and Pastor Bernard Ngosa. Two Sundays ago, we spent each of the meetings celebrating all that we have done together, and were priviileged to have our partner Tearfund's CEO, Matthew Frost also with us.
Now we are in the middle of three Gift Days! We are aiming to raise £170,000.
£90,000 is the remaining money needed to build the Girls Dormitory.
£80,000 will fund the fourth year of the project, and will pay for:
3000 Orphans and vulnerable children supported with uniform and food to go to school
1000 Farming families given training and seeds
117 Volunteers trained to visit and support those living with HIV in their community
50 Church leaders; and 60 Community leaders given leadership training
This week, as perhaps we eat rice and beans; or eat more simply; or cut out meat or luxuries; or whatever we do, let's allow these statistics to build faith in us.
Let's talk about the project and the people in Serenje.
Let's pray.
Let's give.
