Two sisters called Happy and Sandra aged 9 and 6 years . They are from a split polygamous home left with their father who is unemployed their aunty took them in but having a lot of children of her own already could not provide for them any longer. They are delightful but soooo needy of affection and care. Happy tells me she is as her name says always happy !!! we will see
The other two are 10 years old on the left Patience and on the right Rose. They both have only one parent alive and have been neglected. Rose has also had a lot of occultic involvement and was at risk from her community
They were shown their room and were so excited to see that they could get to sleep on a bunk bed , the joy in their faces was well worth the effort we took last week with the painting. These girls will stay together for about three months as we train them and disciple them before integrating them with the old girls. It is exhausting keeping up with their enthusiasm and demanding behaviour as they adapt to living with us...please pray for Mama Praise as she lives with them and also has a new baby herself...
To be able to offer these precious girls a chance of a happy, loving , stable life is a real privilege...
At times like these I am reminded why our ministry exists...as we follow our Lord's example to love the little children he cares about so much.
Thank You for helping to make it possible to give a chance of a new life to such as these.

Nicky,
Just so you know, a whole group of us from Maine read your posts. If all goes well we will meet you in November. We are so excited to meet all the girls you are talking about. Thanks for writing, it helps us to get to know all of them before we even get there!

Thanks for posting this!
It is so humbling that these girls are so excited about a bunk bed. It is so evedent that here in England we take those simple things for granted.
More importantly though it is so exciting that God will work through your ministry and all the girls will be touched by God and God will have the Glory
