Just wanted to tell you all about how great it was to spend some time with the youth at Tumaini church. They led a fantastic service on Sunday which will live long in the memory. Some of you will know that the young people from St Luke’s our church back in Nottingham had raised money to the tune of approximately £270 on the Sunday before we left England. The idea was to give this money for the boys to use to bless/treat the young people of Tumaini. We took them for chips and a soda at a café not far from here. There were 35 of us in all and we all had a great time. It was great to be able to explain that the young people at a church in Nottingham had raised money specifically for them. The amazing thing is that a couple of weeks before we arrived Maureeen Clayton ( Jane's Mum) was asking God to provide money as a treat for the young people. A year or so ago she had managed to treat the young people but as money had been so tight for the charity she couldn’t see a way to finance another treat. She was amazed when Lynda was telling her about the gift from St Luke's and wondering about the best way to spend it. God answered her prayer through St Luke’s. We love stories like that and we love being a part of that story too. Obviously chips and sodas did not use the whole amount so we will update you soon on how the rest is used!
