We, Project Kyrie, thank everyone for making time from their busy schedules to help teach, share and take care of Sisters Bernadette, Gioretti, Justina and Monica from Myanmar and Cambodia during their 2 weeks all rounded Education Programme in Singapore.

The love that has been shared with the sisters is obviously abundant as seen clearly on the faces of excited and glowing faces of sisters, who in turn can’t wait to share what they have learnt to other sisters, teachers and students in their 4 communities.

These 4 sisters will be our ambassadors to teach and ensure that disadvantaged children get the best education possible in their schools.

Special Thanks:


To Friends of Project Kyrie for reaching out to us to offer their services, their funds, for using their network for greater good in building God’s Kingdom and to all who participated with a willing heart to make things happen for the good of others.


To Teachers for sharing their comprehensive lifetime of knowledge to the sisters every morning for 4 hrs for 2 weeks.


To educational centres for opening up their pre-schools and sharing their best practices and teaching methodology to build up the sisters.

To artists who share their God-gifted talents.

To individuals and host family who opened up their homes and families to welcome the sisters.

To sight-seeing team for after-classes activities. Education is also out of the classrooms. What fun!

To welfare team for ensuring sister’s health and welfare is in good order whilst they are here.


Last but not least, to all donors who contributed to support all the expenses and to Holy Spirit church for use of their fantastic classroom.

Building toilets for children in Yangon, Myanmar!

     

We wish to thank Suzanna Kang & family for their generosity in providing toilets for the children at Hlaing Thar Yar.

We believe a heart to share, a heart of mission is the 1st most important element in desiring to build the kingdom of God and not let any of our brothers and sisters be left behind.

Most people say they don't have time to be on site to help the poor. With today's technological advances we need not be there to build the toilets brick by brick.

Emails, WhatsApp, Facetime,Video etc all make it possible for us to be there when we are needed.

We can do a lot once we identify a trustworthy partner on the ground to work with to make things happen for the good and to enrich of lives of those who have little.

Here is sharing with you how we do it without need of a 100 volunteers.

1. 1st we identify the needs
2. Then we get a costing
3. Plans can be drawn up to specifications we need eg tap in every cubicle to ensure easy washing
   
4. We identify the site at the Salesian School @ Hlaing Thar Yar
5. Invite donors to assist
6. Share ideas and shop online with trusted partners on the ground
   
   
   
   
7.  Building starts and Mission accomplished! Happy Kids with toilets to use. Simple facilities like toilets which we often take for granted in Singapore.
   

Let's all think of ways to help others who may need our effort from where we are.

We thank God, Sr Thuzar and Susanna and a wonderful priest again for making this possible!



Yours In Christ
