Thank you for your help! |
We started off this year with the Weissensee action for a new kitchen in the juvenile home of Teen Challenge in Kazakhstan.
We were able to send a donation which enabled them they to start the reconstruction of the kitchen area almost immediately. A few weeks ago we received the following message and a series of photo's:
Hard work with a smile |
"Thank you very much for your care and love. You gave a lot of joy and happiness to our children with your great blessing. Before our kitchen was not safe for kids. We were praying for the new kitchen, dishes and other things. Finally God answered our prayers and provided everything for us, through you.
The children really like their new kitchen very much. They say: “It is 'fancy', clean and comfortable!!!” And when we were building the kitchen their eyes were shining and a big-big smile was on their faces. During the construction and while buying everything for the new kitchen their hearts were full of joy. Now everyone likes to clean the kitchen :)
We are very grateful that you were willing to help us by donating this offering for us. God will bless you and your ministry abundantly."
Everything new and shiny |
Isn't it great to see that donations are spent well? We can only hope that this will make you just as happy as they are. Please, feel free to forward this blog post to family, friends and acquaintances who helped to raise the amount and let them know how much joy their generosity produced.
There was some money left over and they have decided to use it to fix up the central corridor. Every penny is used to make the house more beautiful.
In July we (Jan and Marja) will visit the boys home in Almaty and there is no doubt will will bring back more pictures and news.
