fighting hard to stay afloat - a childrens home stays!

A telefone call changed my priority list.

A childrens home that we have been a part of for the past 13 years informed us, that their Swiss constituents had to pull out due to financial problems.

Since January of this year, the childrens home has to operate on half their budget.

Smaller children, so I understand, where placed in foster homes.

Kids 16 and up are working hard with the personell of the the home to keep it going.

They also have a second-hand shop, and we were aked to deliver clothing a.s.a.p.

As we have just completed three transports in December, we have to pack.
There are large quantities that have come in, but they all have to be sorted and packed.

It is very cold winter weather , making it very hard to heat appropiately in our packing room!

All the same . for the first half on Februaray we can set up in the youth centre of our church here in Kandern.

Now I am hoping to find enough help to pack by Feb. 15th, when I have ordered the next truck to come.

So much for today!
