Two more places at STEC for our children

Four places for our children to study English at this wonderful new English language facility was certainly a blessing. The four of them are loving their classes and had more confidence when I went to their homes on Saturday. They have only had six classes but they greeted me clearly and confidently upon arrival.

Now two more of our children have received places at STEC! Phuong and Anh Thu are thrilled to have the opportunity to study English for a year.

With the help of a translator Phuong, who is nine, said she could help her mother earn more money if she spoke English. They are very poor and live in a temporary shack while they continue the long wait for land from the government. When asked what her biggest wish was, the very biggest she could think of, she said that she wished her parents would live a long time.

Miriam's helpers in Yachandandah

Miriam recently did a small fund raising event for CEF at Rod and Claire's home in Yachandandah.

Miriam said that Clare and Rod were so fantastic supporting her the way they did. Not only did she have the run of their lovely mud brick home, but they also supplied the pumpkins for the soup and made two home baked loaves amongst their many other generosities like making a donation or two along the way.

They live with their son Jack on a lovely property, growing many nice things to eat in the garden, keeping a horse, and cow and her calves and their dog.

I greatly appreciate their generosity, kindness and thoughtfulness. More children will receive an education due to this little event. Even little events make a difference to the lives of others!
