With our schedule so busy the last few months we delayed our grade 7 graduation trip to see Victoria Falls and the game park until July.

Everyone had a wonderful time seeing Hippos in the river, Elephants, Giraffes, wart hogs, antelopes and many more animals they had only read about.  After lunch at Hungary Lion a fried chicken fast food restaurant in town we went to see Victoria Falls.  It was a wonderful day that will be remembered for alifetime.

This not something that happens too often for the kids at the orphanage, but what a blessing for them to experience what they only had learned from text books, and to see for the very 1st time.

NEED:  Zambia is a country of nearly 14 million people with an orphan population of approximately 1.4 million.  Today, GO! serves 218 orphans in Zambia at 3 orphanage-based projects, foster care, a scholarship program, and by providing food to some in need.

In the next 2-weeks we are experiencing a somewhat different challenge for the children we serve in Zambia.  Mike and Linda Jones of Noah Ministries, are departing at the end of August for a 3-month visit to their family in Europe and the U.S., and they oversee our work in Zambia.  We are needing to raise $17,184 in the next 2-weeks to properly cover 4-months of these costs in Zambia for our 218 children as our reserve funds have depleted as we have service more children.

Anything you might assist with to provide for the children in Zambia through 2017 would be greatly appreciated by these vulnerable children and will make a world of difference in their care through 2017.  You may send a check to Global Orphan Relief, 16352 Prairie Farm Cir, Parker, CO 80134 or you may give electronically at <DONATE HERE>

Thank you for your prayerful consideration.
