MAY: Micro Loans For The Community!

Prayers

Dear God, we come before you this month with a heart full of love and care for our girls. They are so precious gift in our life, and we are asking for your blessing and guidance over them. Please watch over them, keep them safe from harm and guiding them on their journey through life. Grant them wisdom in their decision, resilience in the face of challenges. May they grow in good health both physical and emotionally, and may their heart be filled with love, compassion and understanding for others.

Help us as parents to provide them with the Love, support and guidance they need to thrive. Give us the patience and wisdom to nurture their growth and to be a positive role model.

Spiritual Self Defense

We thank God that, this month we were able to work on the curriculum part 12 ”Resurrection” it was so sad when Jesus died, it was so good to know that, he was not only a Son of God who came to save us , but also a good friend. His death is our victory. ( John 19: 34). Girls were very happy to hear about this.

Qn. -If God had only one son, why was He allow him to be crucified?

-Jesus was crucified a very longtime ago, what about our sins now?

Physical Self Defense

Primary Girls

Secondary Girls

We thank God that, even if the girls were very busy for their exams, but also they tried to balance their time and have practice on physical self defense . As we know that more practice make perfect, so they have to practice more and more. It makes them more strong and confidence.

Intellectual Self Defense

As we were praying for Shamsa and Mwanamisi to win in their school games, I thank God that they went to Regional level and they end up there. In this month, all of our girls had Exams for the Terminal exams, all had good health and effort to do their exams. They will be home now, except form two students because they have National Exam this year. Esther is doing very good in the college, she will go Morogoro this June for practical class.

Also we had a young girls and boys group with me, Erasto and Rashan , we are very proud of this group, we believe that, through this group we are going to see a big change in the community.

Economic Self Defense

As we have different projects in the house like crops, animals, motorbikes and Noah to sustain our house. Now we are trying to go to the community. Our neighbor’s house was affected by the floods, so we are helping him to have a good house now. We help the community with good and clean water.

In this month we made 770,000 from our Noah.

Also we have classes for groups of women and men, we have the budget classes with them, they are so excited to have the classes. Also to get loan.

Safe House

Water Well

Livestock

This TZ safe house has goats, cows, chickens and pigs that provide meat, eggs and milk for the girls!

Crops

This TZ safe house has a large field where they grow beans and corn, as well as banana trees, a huge mango tree and lots of fruits and vegetables in the garden next to the house. This takes a huge burden off of the costs of their monthly food budget!

Moto Taxis

Our TZ team has 3 moto taxis!

The passive income received by two of the moto taxis pays for ALL of her girls to go to school for the entire year, including uniforms, books and supplies!! Praise God!

The 3rd moto taxi pays for ALL of her girls to have health insurance for the entire year!

Taxi Car

“Also it was our prayer to be sustainable and independent here in Kilimanjaro, but now we thanks God that we are almost done. We thank God that we have our Car, which will help us to get food, electricity etc.” -Neema, Kilimanjaro Safe house Mama

Solar Panels

Thanks to La Jolla Christian Fellowship we have solar panels on the house now! This eliminates our electricity bill and further reduces our dependence on foreign aid! We are almost completely self sustaining praise God!

Guard Dog

We have a new guard dog named Sal! We bought him from the police station and when he gets a little older he will receive trainings from them so that he can be an extra layer of protection for the girls! Praise God!
