Yesterday, we had a great time as we watched our children make presentations on their last day of school before they broke off for a brief holiday.
Children made presentations before parents, before they were give report cards and sent home. Many par
ents attended the occasion and we were glad to see our children perform many items that included traditional dancing, singing and poems.Revival Outreach Ministries supports over 150 children. We
appreciate all our sponsors that have made this possible. It was a joy to see our children happy and participating.With so many children in our community and many especially orphans not able to afford school fees and cannot go to school; children who are given the opportunity to go to school value it so much. They know their future lies in their education. Children who can't afford going to school normally resort to go to the streets to search for what to eat.
These eat thrown away food in garbage bins. Others become thieves and girls who are the most affected resort to prostitution, in order to get some thing to eat and clothes. The pain of hunger to the poor children in Africa is unbearable so much so that many children resort to sniffing glue, and gas (petrol) and some take drugs like marijuana. They say this helps them to forget sorrow and pain at least for a moment.It is our prayer and desire to see more and more children given an opportunity to go to school. Children who have attained education
normally are able to get jobs after education. Education helps to unlock the God given potentials of children. Education develops the minds of children to handle different challenges in life, such children develop mentally and are successful and effective in life.It was a joy to see our children smiling and happy that someone has given them this opportunity to go to school.
The children sang several songs and made presentation of traditional dances. It was exciting to see how talented most of these children are. There was wild excitement as the children took to the floor in Kikiga dance! Most parents felt like joining in but their was limited space.
Later on the children who performed well were given awards and thereafter they received their report cards and went home. This holiday will be shorter, so they will return in the first week of September.We were happy to see our children come back home. Most of them have improved on their grades and have big dreams!
Thank you friends for being part of what God is doing in our community! Thank you for the
sacrifice to take these children to school, despite the economic situation today.May the good Lord bless you for your commitment, love and sacrifice.
