TOYS R US!

Creativity ... creativity! Most, 95%, of the children here will NEVER have a store bought toy with which to play. These toys are made from cooking oil bottles. Check out the tires... tops from bottles ... and string is made of grass. Now, how about that!

The children play as if there is no tomorow ... not a care in the world. Some who can get school fees get to school. They all want to go. Some try to go without the fees, but they get "chased".

When ever we arrive at the church or wherever, the children are all over us. Sometimes, I have hard candy that the volunteers have brought to give to them... that's a real treat.

Pray for our children!

What a photo! I am going to use this in thE-TASK newsletter so students see that children in Africa have so much less than we do (as they already know), but they are still happy. Nevertheless, they haven't had a chance to know lasting happiness through Jesus. It will be a good ad for your IWC project, I hope!
