Praises due to God

Sometimes we do not celebrate the Lord's miracles enough. This picture is of Jabu's recent wedding.  Two years ago she was so sick; her one year old son  had died from malnutrition, liife was very grim and the future very uncertain. Now Jabu lives in Macetuka and is fit, healthy and running a successful business that employs 13 people. This is how the Lord has worked  in her life over the past two years and we continue to pray that she will one day except Christ as Lord and Savior. 

Another praise is that Eric came 3rd in his class of 53 students last term and he had an excellent report. Eric is doing so well in school and we know God has great plans for this young man. 

In the last couple of days, Eric's mother has taken ill  with TB/HIV and had to be taken to Good Shepherd Hospital. Please lift her up in prayer, that the Lord would work amazing healing, both physically and spiritually, in her life just as He has worked miracles in Eric's life. 

  

Prayer need Andile Mbebe is 18 months old and is new to the Chips program. This little guy was sick and malnuourished last month when we got him started on ART. Praise the Lord that we had food to give to his family thanks to wonderful ministry partners who have provided food parcels. 

Mpopoli is doing well since he has returned from the TB clinic. He still not put any weight on, but feels well. His home will be next in line. 

Gogo Doris' home was finished last month and she was so thankful to have a good roof over her head. 

 
Chips was given 300 pairs of children's shoes and we were able to pass them out among several communities. Often the pair of shoes was the first shoes these children have received in their life. 

  
The floor polish and vaseline groups are doing well and have made several batches which have all sold. The ladies who are participating in the Chicken project have been doing a lot of research and getting ready for the launch of their project. They just got chickens and we are praying that this opportunity is a viable one just as the floor polish and vaseline projects have been.  

All these are examples of God's great provision through wonderful supporters like yourself and the work that we have the pleasure of doing here in Swaziland. Your donations and gifts really do make a difference in so many lives, from necessary life-saving treatments of ART's, food, clothing, scholarships, housing repairs, and micro-industry projects. We can't thank you enough for allowing God to use you in this way.
