Volunteering
Volunteering your time and skills in Mwandi will benefit both the community and yourself.
It allows you to experience life from a different point of view as well as contributing much needed skills.
Volunteering is not all about what you can give but about what you learn about life, the community and yourself.
Spending time with the people of the community is often more valued than the goods you give - listening to the peoples stories, their struggles and joys·
Read testimonies/stories of previous volunteers.

Please Pray for
Rury and myself and our increasing work load;
and that we are able to get some support to get away for a few days this month
The safe arrival of Heather; Keith and Ida;
and volunteers who are coming to Mwandi to share skills and love
The aged and sick guardians who are looking after many orphans in our community
That we get the financial support we need for our feeding program and other small programs
Please remember to keep us in your prayers and, as you can read from the newsletter, we are very busy at the moment so I hope that all our staff, volunteers and mission workers remain strong and healthy to keep the children supported.
