Greetings,
We want to report to you about how the project is progressing. Well, actually, everything is progressing fine. There are no great problems or stories to share! Everything is just bubbling away as per normal, like so many of our own families! We have 19 girls living with us, while two older girls now live outside the house, pursuing further education. We have a house mum and dad, along with a young woman who assists full-time at the house.
Our girls are quite naive and do not know much about the "big world out there". They could be very easily entrapped, similar to others that they may know of. In their cases, however, our girls are kept safe and have the opportunity to attend school together each day. Currently, we have 8 girls in grades 5 & 6, 7 girls in grades 7 & 8, and 3 girls in grade 9 and 1 in grade 11.
I will be travelling to visit them in September and have a good level of expectation that the house is warm, and that the girls are treated kindly. Actually, despite the girls' poverty, if they were not treated well by our leaders, they would not stay; instead, they would return back to their mud house rural villages.
Thanks for your support.
