At Masinenge, the shantytown near us that I’ve shared about before, there is a nursery school, run by Abounding Hope<\/a>, that takes in 50 children 5 days a week so that their parents can go to work.\u00a0 Next to the school building and the soup kitchen(which feeds 60 people four times a week) is an overgrown area<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

that Roy, Zweli, and Sbabalo transformed in a couple of days<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

and then proceeded to get the little ones involved in the planting and watering of veggie plants and seeds that when harvested will be used for the soup kitchen and some fresh snacks for the children.\u00a0 Zweli spoke to them, in their mother tongue, about how God loves us and gives us plants to grow and eat, and how it’s our responsibility to take care of what God has given us.<\/p>\n

Please pray for these children under the care of their four teachers, that they would learn and grow up knowing how much God loves them, in spite of difficult living circumstances.<\/p>\n
