Our dear friends and family,
It is three months since our last update and so much has happened in that time. We are walking by faith and not by sight so really appreciate those of you who are praying for us and giving towards making the vision God has given us to care for children a reality.
We finally, after many challenges, moved out of our previous home and into small rooms near the children's schools. This is due to the fact that our new home is almost finished but the kitchen, shower and toilet facilities, which will be outside the house, are not yet built.
My elderly car was proclaimed beyond repair so we have no transport either to get the children to and from school, and so we pray, and trust that God, who has faithfully brought us this far, will supply all our needs and that it wont be long before we settle down to enjoy our new home and welcome more precious children in need into our family.
If you would like to help us finish building our home,or to buy a much needed small bus to transport our children to church, school and medical appointments the Giving address is https://mobile.irisglobal.org/give, then scroll down to Bases, then to Conakry(Guinea)
Our Hope Academies are going well and we plan to start another 10 academies in our church buildings to accommodate poor children that cant afford the school fees at a government school at the beginning of September.
Our costs are low but teachers need to be paid, food for the children's lunches must be bought, and stationary for our keen students must be bought and handed out. We also offer our students free medical help should they need it, so please consider helping us to help them. The link to our Giving page for the schools is https://stopfortheone.reachapp.co/sponsorships?sponsorship_type=classroom&status=unsponsored,partial
We will have accommodation for a limited number of short term visitors and longer term missionaries once we have furniture in our house, so please feel free to contact me should you wish to pay us a visit.
We all wish you a very happy Easter as we celebrate the risen Christ this coming weekend.
If you have any questions or require more information about our work please contact me on siatongu@irisglobal.org.
May God richly bless you
