This past Saturday, I visited the orphans houses. The Missions of Hope wants to repair the homes of the orphans. In this particular home, we wanted to repair the house and give it a new look. The house is headed by an orphan who is not even able to buy food for the household let alone to build and repair the house. So on this day, a number of other orphans were able to come along and help in rebuilding the house. First we had to look for water and mud to do this!! It was hard , but I thank God that we were able to accomplish this work, with God's help. The ladies did some of the finishing tasks, but the boys and the youth had to do the hard work of bringing the water to the house and mixing the water and the soil.
We do plan to start the digging of pit latrines for the orphan homes as we realize this is also a big need. We hope that by the end of next month, we would have dug at least 5 pit latrines for the different homes. Altogether, we are hoping by the end of the year to do this project for the 30 plus homes of the orphans. To dig one pit latrine, it costs about $60...to dig about 30 feet. Please pray about this with us as we need to wait in prayer for these funds.
