Zambia

Today in chapel, we heard a couple of songs that were recorded in Zambia. A family went to Zambia over Christmas and recorded some songs written and sung by orphans. They are producing a CD to sell to raise money for AIDS Orphans. It was so touching to hear the orphans sing. Their voices are beautiful. Naturally, I cried! :) Shannon found this you tube clip of some children in Zambia singing. Be sure to click on the link and listen. I guarantee it will bring a smile to your face and a prayer to your lips---http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ec64G1JvMN4
We saw some current photos of the rescue unit that Shannon went to last year and were shocked to see that the school is in terrible shape. The mud walls have crumbled and all that is left is the support posts. These kids need our prayers and our support. They have nothing. Their facilitators need prayer, also. They care for these kids day in and day out. They are parents, doctor, gardener, teacher, friend and hope to these kids. Pray that the Lord will refresh them daily and give them contentment and compassion. You can sponsor one of these orphans and help them for only $12 a month. This will provide medicine, grain, school fees and much more. It's a small price to pay to help a child. Just follow this link.....
