HELP!

HELP!

Well, it's not a crisis.  But we do need your help - we can't do this without you.  There are some things we want to do that are not in the current budget for 2014.

Jackton told me that he wants to do a trip with students again this year.  It has been several years since the "Transwestern Tour" and three years since we went to Malindi on the coast.  Most of our current students have never seen the wonders of their homeland.  They were born in the deep slum, went on the streets when they were little kids and now are with us at Kamulu.

So...if you are willing to help, we'll plan trips for the kids, maybe in three groups.  Where we go depends on the funds we get.  Cost for each trip with about 30 students and 8 Team members in each group for 5 or 6 days would be about $4,500 -- so we need $13,500 total.

If you can help, send funds to Made in the Streets, 409 Franklin Road, Brentwood, TN 37207 and write me at charles@madeinthestreets.org telling me what you are sending.  And thanks!

ALSO - we want to take some of our students and Team members on some Vacation Bible School trips to villages this year. It gives opportunity for students to have experience in teaching Bible, gives them contact with other congregations and raises their confidence level -- besides being a blessing to the village congregations.  It takes about $800 for 6 people to make a teaching trip -- includes transport, food, treats for kids, duplication of teaching materials, etc.

Do the same if you want to help with this!!  And thanks in advance.

Peace and Joy,

charles
