EXPERIENCING THE OPEN HEAVEN
Seeing God's Hand at Work
"...let the little children come unto me..."
We just spent a week out in the village of Khwai, Botswana. This village of around 450 persons is one that has shown us clearly how by pouring love into the darkness - offering hope - helping others see their worth and being consistent and unwavering -
THE HEAVENS ARE OPENING AND BLESSINGS ARE POURING OUT IN THIS LITTLE VILLAGE
Check this out:
- Education Center has opened officially for the Pre-School AND other education projects - we had an opening session - 35 children are enrolled at this time - 17 more want to enroll. This project took just 14 months from the time we envisioned this in October 2017 - to the completion of the rebuilding of the vacant building. We stepped into this with our partners in Botswana - Bushways Foundation and Netlasana Charity Organization with help in funding from our partner Orphan's Promise!
JUST A LITTLE GATHERING TO SAY HELLO |
CAN YOU TELL THEY ARE HAPPY |
- Spent the week working with the teachers on Trauma Informed Care and Sensory Integration Strategies for little ones who have suffered from Neglect, Abuse, Domestic Violence, Parental Alcoholism, etc.

VILLAGE RAIN -UNDERCOVER WITH A NICE FIRE |
- Met with the leadership of the village - about getting all the Primary School children back into the village as soon as possible and into the Primary School that was built this year - now being held "hostage" by a government standoff. The leadership of the village is ready to take charge and push this opening.
