Project Fix It - Part 1

On Saturday we had the first phase of our 'Project Fix It' in which we're blessing our church members who live in the local townships by fixing up the things that make for a more bearable winter. So far we've replaced front doors, fixed leaky roofs, built new front steps and replaced many broken windows.

The support from church members has been brilliant with some giving money and others rolling up their sleeves and doing the work. We also wanted to bless the wider communities so as well as blessing our church members, we had people praying with those in need and a team of guys playing with the children for a few hours. All in all it was a tiring morning but everyone went home feeling satisfied at having done a great job. Praise God!

One of may donations, this one from Colours For Africa who gave us 120lts of top quality paint


Len's Glass supplied all our needs for the broken windows


Betty with her tin of paint which will do the whole indoors


Richard replacing the first of many windows. This is Peter's house where all 5 windows were broken and Peter's bed was next to a broken window. Saturday night should have been a good night for him

Aunty Henna had a new front step built, she was delighted!


Phase two will take place next Saturday, so look out for some more pictures and reports of how things went.
