Growing MCK Clark ECD School

 Work continued on the house Thursday morning, with painting and final touches while Ed, Leda, Cheryl, and Maureen visited Athiru Giati MCK Clark ECD School.  This school started in 2011 for orphans and vulnerable children has grown from a hand full of students in one room to a large conplex with over 300 students.  It now is a resource center for the entire community.

The dedication ceremony for the house was held Thursday afternoon. Grandmother Susan received amazing support from the Women's Fellowship Group of her local church.  The women cooked all morning and then turned out in mass for singing and celebration.  The event was attended by at lease 100 people and was the most inspiring and spirit filled that we have been a part of.  The local church and Women's Fellowship presented a new bed and beautiful blanket for the new house.  Addionally they feed all in attendence with a bountiful helping of delicious rice, beans, vegetables. The bowls of food were heeping and all were feed.  I was remnded of the fishes and loaves because, despite the large number of attendees, the food never ran out.yeT
