Gerladina Orphanage & Education Centre

Thadeus arrived in Bukoba on Monday and we are thankful that this time he is there to stay. He has been transferred to Bukoba so will be living quite close to the centre. Much has happened since his visit in April. At that time he found a property to house the permanent orphanage. He made a downpayment on it and we are only $1,000 short of having the property completely paid for. He has plans for there to be 5 houses on it with 20 children living in each for a total of 100 orphans. It is so wonderful to think of changing the life of 100 children. Also at the centre will be schools, a church and possibly a medical centre. He reports that the children are all happy and healthy. Two of them have been registered at school, and one in pre-school. It is our hope that someday they will be able to attend school right at the centre. Thank you all for your donations as they make it possible to change lives forever.
