Sharing Christmas blessings with 60 girls at Pyin Oo Lwin for Christmas 2023

I am so thankful and grateful to be surrounded by friends who have kind hearts and have a great desire to share their blessings.

It's so easy for us to just pop online and buy what we need or to hop into a pharmacy to pick up items we need for ourselves and our families.

It takes a special person to be aware that it is not so for many people. They can't afford a bar of soap or shampoo or slippers or even a Christmas meal with an ice cream because they do not live in a country that is peaceful and full of opportunities like we do.

Many thanks to Lena for providing the Christmas meal and to Francesca for the much needed toiletries.

May your love for the girls warm their hearts this Christmas and May your care bring joy to them for the coming New Year in 2024.

We thank Jesus for making it possible for all of us to share our blessings.  

All Glory to God! 

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everyone!

Yours In Christ,

Mill

Building a New Roof @ Phum Chreh for the Children

 

*boy sitting in the hot sun waiting for a dance event

When I first stepped foot in the Salesian School @ Phum Chreh in 2005, this boy and many children like him captured my heart. His plight and his living conditions spurred me to work hard on helping the sisters to get all that they need to help children like him in Cambodia. 

We can I believed, share what we have so others can live a little better.

Today, in 2023, 18 years later, I am happy to share that we are able to provide a new roof for the children. Seeing this new roof built seems to have a special significance in my heart. It is as I have come a full circle and Jesus is saying this is the reward for ploughing on all these years to help those with little.

Friends, pls join me to thank the donors for building this new roof for the Salesian Kindergarten @ Phum Chreh.

It is with great joy for the donors and for myself to know the children have a good and shaded space for their school activities in all weather conditions.

Education, health and fitness is the way to go for children to grow and overcome all hurdles in life.

🙏 With much gratitude to all involved in making this possible.

All Glory to Christ \o/\o/\o/

Water is Life!

 

Dear friends,

One thing I enjoy most about life is when we find friends who truly care about others.

The simplicity where people help others without expectations. It's just a joy to witness.

Nothing exciting about repairing and replacing the water treatment system for the Salesian Sisters in Myanmar. We often forget in Singapore clean water is essential for life.

Thank you to all who came together to help the sisters within 24hrs to make this urgent repairs possible.

God Bless everyone,
