Orphans need house shoes too

The kids out at home of Praise have been doing so good.
They are some of the sweetest kids.
They ask for nothing but give so much.
The floors in the house are not dirt but are very close to being dirt.
When finished showering they walk to bed bare foot.
At night if they have to get up they walk bare foot to the bathroom.
This makes their beds very dirty and is unhealthy.

I am going to reward them with house shoes if they keep up their personal hygiene this week. There are new hand wash stations put in by our friends kids just recently.

So how can you be a part of this. 
it is only $1 for a pair of croc style shoes here.
There are 33 kids and 4 live in with house parents. 
Just click donate at the top and donate safely through Pay Pal.
When donating during the confirmation there is an area to write a note. Just put money for shoes and we will make sure all funds go to Home of Praise. After the $35 is raised we will make a comment at the bottom of this post. 


Thanks for caring, loving and most importantly praying with us.  




We  have received the money for the house shoes. They will be delivered on the 23rd!

Chicken farm

The home of Praise. 
A home
a school
community outreach
a church
all in a village outside of Kampala. They have 33 kids living there currently and and about 100 kids that go to the school. The kids in the home are orphans that a Ugandan lady named Praise has taken in as her own to love and care for. 
We have been working out there since we arrived in January this year. We have worked on many projects from building an additional class room to delivering food for them and IVO. Also focusing on helping the administrator learn better management skills.

The most recent focus has been a chicken farm. Building self sufficient programs that help them support them selfs and be able to step away from all western financial help. This is good because the kids will learn how to support themselves when they are out on there own. 

So this weekend was the first delivery of 50 baby chick that in 3 months will be laying eggs. We will be eating some of them for a good source of protein for the kids and also be selling to help with finances. 
The kids happy bringing in the baby chicks.
