A long overdue update

After a LONG, LONG time, we are finally able to get on here and update some things, along with some pictures we would like to share with you.  First, and foremost are pictures of the children.  These may not be the best pictures but they are what we have been able to download.  Names of the children are on each photo.  The kids are growing a lot.  And they are all now in school.  More on that after the pictures.

 A note... one of the pictures disappeared... hummm, well we do have it here!
With just a bit of prejudice, aren't these kids great?  Hopefully next time we post the camera used will do a better job.  We will be working on that.  

You will notice we now have 31 children.  One child was turned over to his parents.  But that is probably a good thing.  It is best if children can be with their real parents.  Our purpose is to help those who have no parents.

We have 4 house moms now.  Our staff also includes 2 women who do laundry 3 days a week, our cooking team of 2, our cleaning crew of 2, and 2 who are on security.  We have been growing.

The following photos are of our school, now completed.  Pastor John is now in charge of that.  We have 116 children in school this year.  There are 14 teachers.  The children are all in preschool and primary school.  The students include the orphans, workers children, and children from the area surrounding IDADEE.  The children also have Bible teaching on a daily basis.

 

 

You can see in the following photos the chapel filled with children.  That was the Festé D'été (Kids Fest).  With the children present and the workers, we had 865 persons there.  It was one week long and the whole group was fed a good meal each day.  

 

We hope you have enjoyed catching a glimpse of what is happening and how the children, along with IDADEE itself, are growing.  Please keep us in prayer, for wisdom, guidance from the Lord and perseverance.  We totally depend on the Lord for all things.  Thank you for being there with us in prayer and in finances.
