SWINGSETS

ByTrey

Holes hand dug by a

machete! A second one was built to

the right. Don’t know who enjoyed

it more…staff or children?

This is the preschool room where sewing classes are also held! In this room we painted

the letters of the alphabet above the blackboard with a

picture every other letter and shapes with color words below

the blackboard.

This is the team room, where teams hang out and plan activities. Also an all-purpose room

when needed!

Page 5: LAS 2013 Africa trip

A room to be used by ladies in our program as needed on an emergency basis only…for 3 months

max!

Trey made these homemade ladders!

This used to be Amani Baby Cottage. Once HEAL

acquired it we did some much needed upgrades and

renovations to make it more suitable to our programs.

Tina lives on the upper level. Also up there is the interns bedroom and a room for couples or leaders to stay in.

These are bamboo logs that Trey used in

building the tree house. They have been stained. In the background is the Gecko House, where our

English and business classes are held. Also

further back is the building where Trey

lives.

While working with the

Lipscomb team, we helped the

ladies tell their stories…partly

through creative arts!

For many it was the first time they had ever held even a crayon! At first

they were timid; by day 2 they were quite creative in sharing their stories!

It was incredible!

Abraham’s wife is dying from AIDS so he asked if he could be a part of the ladies Bible study. The ladies welcome him with open arms.

The education given to the Mamas of

these precious children is life-saving.

They are required to do

chores as well…to assume

responsbilityand take

ownership in the solutions.

Outdoor cooking area at SHC! This is a very nice facility. Poor Mama in the photo is ready to

delivery any minute!

Heavy-duty pots over an open

flame! SHC is very cognizant of

nutrients needed by the children AND Mamas!

nice facility.

Fazira

Tina met Fazira when she was a Muslim and single Mom of several

children. She invited Fazira to church the following Sunday. Tina and a driver picked her up and took her to church. When the pastor gave

an altar call that morning, Faziratook Tina’s hand and asked if she

would walk the aisle with her.

She invited Jesus to be her Savior that day. Since then she has taken in

another child and is pregnant with her 5th child.

She is pictured here with a print of a painting I did of she and one of her

children.

We went to visit Richard’s Jaja, who is dying of AIDS. Richard lives at Amani Baby Cottage. Tina takes him to Jaja’s village to visit from time to time.

Tina takes food & staples to Jaja; Jaja gives Richard gifts of fruit to take back to Amani. Here we are pictured in her hut sitting on her bed!

All of Jaja’s children have died of AIDS. Their graves behind her house. This is of Richard’s mothers grave! So precious; yet so so sad!
