VOH Kitwe Gives Back
VOH Kitwe has been blessed in so many ways and wants to extend blessings to the surrounding community. Recently we received 300 new desks from the government, and so we decided to share our old desks with another Community school in the area. Our friends were grateful because previously the students were sitting on the floor and on broken benches. This gesture of sharing our blessings and helping one another has been a great witness to both communities!

Construction at VOH Kenya
At VOH Kenya, a construction team is busy building a new classroom, staffroom, and administrative office. Plans are that the work will be completed within 5 months, then the children will then be able to move into the new classroom. The new library is also completed and VOH Kenya will be planning for the construction and placement of bookshelves and large tables so the kids will be able to participate in Big Buddy Reading, have a quiet space to study, and time to sit and enjoy a variety of books from Canada and Kenya!
Memorizing Scripture at VOH Malawi
We continue to encourage Teen Corner at VOH Malawi to memorize scripture. Ten of the children memorized James 1:1-15 this month and as a special treat they were taken out for a soft drink at a local shop. They enjoyed the beautiful grounds, the atmosphere, and spending time together!
