The last two days have been wonderful, we packed five boys yesterday and three today to take them and all their stuff to go back and live with their families. We all piled into a minibus and having said goodbye to their friends and home ( some for the last five years ! ) we set off along the very wet and soggy and extremely muddy Gyero road. 
slip sliding along we travelled yesterday in and around Jos and today to some more remote villages. It is such a priviledge to take these boys home , they were so excited, parents were dancing with joy as their child came home. One of the boys mum's said she was the happiest woman alive as her Son is a new boy and she is so thankful to God that he is back reunited with her :)
Today we were able to take Fidelis home to his village and nine brothers and sisters. He has been with the ministry for five years on account of his life being at risk due to occultic involvement. His family live in the middle of nowhere, so far that most are uneducated and rely on farming for their income. There are children everywhere and local materials are used for house, despite the obvious poverty these are very happy and welcoming people. Due to the remote locality it would take him 2 hours to walk to secondary school and so we bought him a bike , he was so delighted to own such a thing.
As we left each child we prayed for them and promised to return three times a year to check on their progress. Pray along with us as they adjust to living back in their communities and for all their friends left behind , and thank God for the ministry which really is making a difference in so many children's lives. Thank you too for your continued support without which we could not do this work.
Check out the size of the maize in the village !!!!
