Uganda Orphanage update.

The children were provided 1 meal every week. The semester ended with the purchase of the land for their new school. These were wonderful gifts that brought hope to the children, the teachers and the community.

The challenges that were face during the month The Gospel Rally had to be cancelled because it rained; the plan is to hold it in September when the children come back to school. Eight of the children were very sick with malaria, they were provided medicine. To pay for the medicine for the children, Pastor Frank had to use the money that he would have paid the teachers with. The teachers monthly salary is $42.00. (No I did not forget a 0)

The plans to build the school have been started. The projected cost is $8,000.00 the completion date needs to be the end of December so the children can start their new school year there in January. I am asking everyone I know to mail $1.00 to TCC attention Sandy.
