Ovaha's Hut: July 2013

Some of donated items

Sorry its been a while, CURE and the rainy season put Ovaha and the construction behind schedule. However, a couple exciting thins happened during our last mission to Ovaha.

The water line was installed and flowing in a central location near the entrance of the village. The walk to the river (about 3 miles) roundtrip is now unnecessary for fetching water daily. It has been greatly appreciated by the villagers at Ovaha's Hut and will continue to improve the daily routine for lots of families for years to come. We were ecstatic to see it up and running during our last visit. It is the direct result of outside support for a small village in Malawi, Africa. Thanks to everyone that is backing this project, it wouldn't be possible without YOU!

Lawrence's church (Enlightened Christian Gathering) is preparing a trip to Ovaha's Hut on 13 July 2013. Many youth (and a few older guys) from the church will travel to Ovaha's Hut to share encouragement, provide clothing and toys and let the villagers know that they have strong Malawian support for a short distance from them. I'm excited to see Lawrence's church get behind the project and especially excited that the villagers will get to meet & greet with a group of selfless individuals that love Jesus.

We have found a great source of clothing and toys in Blantyre. A post at the International Trade Fair sells wholesale lots of clothing & toys. Bundles are put together and sold by weight. We intend on buying materials from this post to be able to deliver more materials with donation money.

We are excited about the work that God is continuing to do through Lawrence and the supporters of Ovaha's Hut. Enjoy the pictures from the last visit to Ovaha and we will update again soon.
