Subject: THE BIG DAY
God is good all the times and the times God is good Iʼm full of Joy as I write to you this morning after a wonderful day yesterday. The big day finally came and it was a big success. It is no longer a dream because it is real. It was a time to thank and praise God for his wonderful work. We are continuously thanking and praising him all the time for using all of us in this apostolate. It is the Lordʼs doing people from the village came to witness the glory of God. Father Ndema led the celebrations of thanks giving with a mass, dedicted the safe house and planted memorial trees. All the children and staff danced their hearts out. The memorial will never fade in our hearts and mind. Thank you all for making it a success. The food served was delicious. Thank you, thank you and Thank you.
May the Almighty God bless you abundantly.
Attached find photos of the occasion.
In Christʼsʼ service I remain,
