Hi everyone
I'll fill you in on the last couple of days. Yesterday we had a visit to a beautiful training centre to art camp graduation. 15 boys from the centres attended an art camp and received certificates and displayed their art work. We had a tedious journey (nearly 2 hours there and 2 hours back) in a jeepney and the pollution was very bad.
Today over 100 children from all the centres and those literally living on the street had their annual trip to the swimming 'park'. It was very special. Over 30 inflatables were purchased at a nearby shop and the kids had a fab time using these and having water fights with some water guns we also bought. If you look closely at the picture you can see Lito, the driver, fixing the lilos on the roof of the vehicle owned by the Malate centre. Can you see Malcolm through the back window? Pastor Tim is now known as Pastor Flipflop. Ask him why when you next see him!
Hope you are all well.

Hi Kath,
Thanks for your write-up....so glad that the swimming went well. That is such a blessing to those children, for them to be able to relax, have fun, forget their worries and just be children. That will always stay in their memories. It would be good to have a photo of the day to give to Newton Longville School, as the children there fund-raised to help pay for the swim-trip.
Love to all,

I've got to ask. Why not let the air out of the lilos surely there is enough hot air between you to re-inflate them at a later date. Great photo though!. Helen
