      <image:caption>Hands at Work identifies local churches within the communities who demonstrate a passion for serving the poorest of the poor, and challenge them to develop a locally operated Community Based Organisation (CBO) uniting the church and mobilising congregation members to take action to care for the most vulnerable. Hands at Work begin a long-term partnership serving those organisations and work to increase their ability to provide effective, holistic care: physically, spiritually, emotionally and intellectually.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>At Hands at Work, the foundation of the care is Holy Home Visits. A home visit is beneficial, not just in assessing and understanding the external needs, but in spending quality time with a child and his or her family, therefore bringing them value and worth. Home visits may carry a high personal cost of time, emotion, and energy, but like the gospel, they bring transformation. LEARN MORE</image:caption>

      <image:title>Prayer Room - 40 Days of Prayer - Day 21 - PLAY</image:title>
      <image:caption>Many times children defined as the ‘most vulnerable’ are put in positions requiring more maturity than would be expected for someone of such a young age. A Life Centre gives children the freedom to play, laugh and smile. It provides them with a safe place where children can be children.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Prayer Room - 40 Days of Prayer - Day 21 - RELATIONSHIP GROUPS</image:title>
      <image:caption>It is crucial that Care Workers, Primary Caregivers and children have a place where they can share their challenges, fears, hurt and pain with others who have been through similar situations. Hands at Work helps to create safe spaces called Relationship Groups which are a daily practice at the Life Centre.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Prayer Room - 40 Days of Prayer - Day 21 - SUPPORT FOR CARE WORKERS</image:title>
      <image:caption>Many Care Workers and their families are vulnerable themselves and so it is essential that they are properly supported in caring for the most vulnerable. The type of support that Care Workers receive looks different in each community. It can be discipleship, emotional support or help setting up income generating activities which benefit the Care Workers and the Community Based Organisation.</image:caption>

We were doing an appreciation day for the Care Workers and because there was an additional workbook left over, I gave it to Josefa and asked him to write his name on the heart. The booklet was based on Ephesians 3:18 and when I explained that it said ‘God loves Josefa,’ he gave me a huge, beautiful smile.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"When I met this little girl, she was living in one of the poorest communities in Swaziland and was born with a disability that prevented her from walking or talking. She was one of the most vulnerable, yet her joy was contagious and infectious. I never would have imagined that meeting her and knowing her name and story would change my outlook on God and life. The chance to meet her taught me a lesson that I will never forget - God gives us beautiful gifts that come in unexpected packages."</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“When I visited a family in the community of Chinku, Malawi, one of the children was suffering from malaria. One of the Care Workers, Richard, lifted the child onto his bicycle and strapped the boy’s little sister to his back. As Richard cycled off towards the Care Point to ensure the children ate a meal, and then took them to the clinic, which was several kilometres away, it reminded me again of the life-line that our Care Workers across Africa are for our children.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories from the UK - Link for Life team in South Africa - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Link for Life Project is a church and community initiative which was established in 2010 by local churches in Great Wyrley and Cheslyn Hay. Now working across the Lichfield Diocese, the Project connects schools, churches and the wider community to support the work of three Christian, non-profit organisations in Southern Africa – including Hands at Work. From 15th February–1st March a team of seven students from Wolgarston High School in Staffordshire (Eve, Jessica, Stella, Erin, Eleanor, Isabelle and Isabelle) and five adult leaders (Mike (Wolgarston Teacher), Tony &amp; Richard (both from St Anne’s Church, Chasetown), Paula (Chasetown Community School) and Molly (Link for Life leader)) visited the community of Mafambisa in South Africa. The school has partnered with the community for several years. Mafambisa is a small town where Khetiwe and a team of six Care Workers currently care for 70 children. Many of these children are refugees from neighbouring countries and do not have identity documents, which limits their access to government support, grants and schooling. Amidst these and other challenges the Care Point provides a place of safety, love and dignity – reminding each child that they matter. During their visit, the team wrote daily blog posts reflecting on their experiences at the Care Points and during Holy Home Visits. You can read their reflections here.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The restrictions of the last year or so have meant that fundraising has been more complicated to organise than in previous years. But Hannah, a Hands at Work advocate from St Luke’s Church in St Albans, came up with a plan to raise money for Hands at Work by selling tickets to a virtual cooking masterclass where professional chef, Doug Crampton, led people through how to cook a delicious 3-dish Thai meal one Saturday night.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories from the UK - Curry on Fundraising!</image:title>
      <image:caption>Impacted by her experiences on previous team visits to South Africa and Eswatini, Hannah shares: “Hands at Work is a charity so close to my heart. The amazing Care Workers in Africa faithfully cook every day for children who wouldn't eat otherwise, often when they themselves have little to eat. But they also sit to eat with them, and offer them a safe place to play, be known, and be loved”.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories from the UK - Miles for Miswa</image:title>
      <image:caption>David Newsome reflects on his recent walk to fundraise for the Miswa Community in Zambia. “In Hands at Work we say that we go to communities ‘off the tar road.’  In other words, we go to the most isolated, poorest communities.  Last year my wife, Jane, and I visited Miswa in Zambia.  It was 13.5 miles from the tar road along dirt tracks to this isolated and scattered community.  During our visit we asked one of the Care Workers what they do when one of the children gets malaria, a desperate issue in that area. He replied that he takes them with his vehicle to the clinic on the main road.  It was only as the conversation continued that it dawned on us that the ‘vehicle’ he was referring to was his bicycle.  Imagine taking a sick child on a bike all that way.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories from the UK - Miles for Miswa</image:title>
      <image:caption>The memory of that community has stayed with me ever since. I love walking; it restores me, it lifts my heart, and it turns me naturally to prayer. For me, walking is a matter of leisure, of choice, but for the community of Miswa it is a matter of necessity and, in some circumstances, of survival.  The Care Workers shared with us their dreams of establishing a community garden. The picture shows them explaining to Jane where they hoped it would be.   It was wonderful to receive photographs this year of how they had realised their dreams!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Path starts in Cresswell, just north of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and runs up to Berwick-upon-Tweed in the North.  It is 64 miles long and almost the whole route is classed as an ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’.  It passes one of my very favourite places, Holy Island, the cradle of Christianity in the north of England, as well as a number of impressive castles at Warkworth, Dunstanburgh and Bamborough. It takes in some beautiful little fishing villages too – Amble, Alnmouth, Craster, and Seahouses.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Stories from the UK - Miles for Miswa</image:title>
      <image:caption>Doing the walk amidst the pandemic, and not long before the government instituted a second lockdown, gave ample food for reflection along the way.   On the final day I stopped on Goswick Sands, just north of Holy Island. It is a beautiful spot and was a lovely morning, with not another person in sight. There was a tangible sense of peace and prayer, a truly ‘thin place’ in the border between heaven and earth.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>To our Partners in Canada "In Hands we have a divine restlessness; a holy yearning for more.

We discovered as those who were rescued, that we could now become rescuers." - George Snyman</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK "I was able to visit a very vulnerable family, where an elderly grandmother is caring for her five grandchildren since the mother passed away three years ago. The father left after her death and started a new family, offering his children no further support. The grandmother has very little capacity to earn income and relies significantly on neighbours. She is not originally from Chinku Community, Malawi and has no relatives there but when asked why she stayed and didn't return to where she originates from after her daughter passed, she said: “This community is so good to me. I wouldn't manage without the Care Workers and the support they give.” Though she faces significant challenges, she feels like she belongs here and is part of a community that looks out for her and cares for her family.” – Kristal Hoff, International Office Volunteer (Canada), reflects on a recent visit to Malawi.</image:caption>

Providing for seven children brings enough difficulty, but life has been almost impossible for Candace since her husband passed away, leaving her to care for her family alone. Unable to sufficiently provide for them all, and feeling desperate and helpless, Candace reached out to the Care Workers at Chisangalalo Community Based Organisation (CBO) who, filled with grace and Christ-led compassion for this vulnerable family, immediately introduced Patience and two of her younger siblings to the Care Point. Now Patience attends the Care Point every day, where she eats a nourishing hot meal, filling her belly and enabling her to concentrate on just being a child. – Chinku Community, Malawi</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Day 9 – Children across Africa Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand. – Isaiah 41:10 Today, we encourage you to pray for the most vulnerable children like Idah, Amos and Erick who you know by name. Hands at Work deeply desires for each of our children, to have a personal relationship with Jesus, knowing and believing the unconditional love that He has for them. Ask God to give the most vulnerable children a spirit of joy and hope in the midst of desperation. Through the Godly display of love from their Care Workers, pray for each child to feel a sense of belonging, hope and love for their future. #40Days2019 Idah* is a 10-year-old girl, living with her mother and four siblings in the community of Chinku. Her father passed away when she was only two years old, leaving her mother, Ellen*, solely responsible for providing for her young children. Ellen did all that she could to meet her children’s needs but it was an immense challenge. In 2014, Idah and her siblings were identified by local volunteer Care Workers as amongst the most vulnerable and invited to attend the Care Point where they would receive a hot, nutritious meal daily and support with their education and basic health care. – Chinku, Malawi</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Dan Waspe, International Volunteer (UK) reflects on growing leaders out of the most vulnerable communities across Africa: "We took a trip to one of our communities in Chinku, Malawi. We set off on Simon’s motorbike but after only a few minutes of driving, it started to torrentially downpour. We headed up the dirt track but it became increasingly difficult. We sought shelter for a while and when the rain eased slightly we pushed on. Eventually, it become completely impossible and the wheels were clogging with mud and we started slipping off. We turned around and headed back down the mountain to find another way. We were completely soaked. We got someone to collect his bike and found other bikes that were going a different way to Chinku. After 5 hours of being soaking wet we arrived in Chinku for the night. Never once did Simon even consider not going and giving up. It wasn’t even an option. Simon is humble, teachable and eager to learn. He has grown in his willingness to challenge the communities that he works in, and his culture. He is becoming braver in fighting for our children and our communities. Simon is hungry to learn and is honest in his strengths and weaknesses."</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Day 9 - Climate Chnage ‘The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him. Fear the Lord, you his holy people, for those who fear him lack nothing.’ – Psalm 34:7-9 Over the years, changes in climate have caused natural disasters such as drought, cyclones and hurricanes to become more frequent. The most vulnerable are always severely impacted, as they have no extra layers of protection. Sadly, these changes in the climate have directly impacted the most vulnerable children and their families’ ability to survive. Pray for Hands at Work leadership to have wisdom and discernment in knowing how to address these challenges and support families when crises happen. Ask God to protect the most vulnerable children, that they will come to know God’s love and comfort in times of uncertainty. A result of these recent climate changes, was Cyclone Idai that hit South Eastern Africa in mid-March 2019. What initially looked like a bad storm, turned into disaster for tens of thousands of people, affecting Malawi, first with floods, then Mozambique and Zimbabwe. After the Cyclone, many homes were affected, particularly in Malawi and Mozambique. As Hands at Work, we committed to responding to the families who have been most affected. Due to heavy rain fall, many houses in Malawi were destroyed during Cyclone Idai, and families were left living in desperate situations. 11-year-old Martha* and her grandmother Emily* where one of these families. Emily’s house collapsed during the night of Cyclone Idai. In the morning, they were surrounded by the gravel, where their house had once stood. Devastatingly, they didn’t retrieve anything from their house; suddenly putting Martha in an even more vulnerable position. Martha and Emily temporarily moved in with Martha’s mother, however this wasn’t a safe place for them to live. Martha’s mother lives nearby, although Martha doesn’t see her often. Her mother stays with her two younger brothers and makes a living by brewing and selling alcohol. Seeing the situation, her grandmother made the decision to bring Martha to live with her, as her mother’s home was a unsafe environment for a young girl. Understanding the increased vulnerability and urgency of the situation, the community of Mngwere came together to rebuild a house for Emily and Martha. Using bamboo sticks, poles and grass, they created a temporary structure for Emily and Martha to live. The local Hands at Work team in Dedza was able to further support the family by providing plastic to secure the roof and protect them from the weather. Seeing the community come together in this family’s time of need was such an encouragement to the local Hands at Work in team in Dedza.</image:caption>

Orphaned children are often forced to abandon school and take up responsibilities in the home. As part of the Hands at Work vision in providing holistic care for each child, we fight for children to have access to education. Pray for the teachers who invest many hours a day into teaching our children. Ask God to give them grace and compassion as they serve as role models for the children. Pray they will have wisdom in assessing each child’s needs as they teach in a loving and encouraging way. This is why we work hard and continue to struggle, for our hope is in the living God, who is the Saviour of all people and particularly of all believers. Teach these things and insist that everyone learn them.  – 1 Timothy 4:10-11     At the Life Centre in Mngwere Community, Malawi, the Care Workers have started an after-school class for the children to help them with their homework.</image:caption>

When Mathew’s* father passed away three years ago, Mathew’s mother soon remarried a man who lives in Mozambique, and she went to live with him. Sadly, he did not allow her to take her children with her, so she left them to stay with their grandmother, Prudence*. Prudence carries a heavy burden and desperately tries to care for her grandchildren. Not able to keep up with the rent payments and feeling overwhelmed by the hardships in life, she stopped going to church and was close to giving up hope. In January 2019, Care Workers found Mathew and his siblings in desperate need of basic necessities, love and hope. They were all welcomed with open and loving arms to receive a hot, nutritious meal at the Care Point, access to basic health care, and a place back in school. The Care Workers faithfully visit the family, comforting and encouraging Prudence. Joy has been brought to each member of Mathew’s family as they have encountered Christ through the Care Workers.</image:caption>

Many of these pastors have been around for years, but there was a need to challenge them in the way that they support both Sakubva and Chinyausunzi Community Based Organisations (CBO). Farai and the team brought the pastors from Mutare up to Honde Valley to visit Chinaka Community. They chose Chinaka because the pastors there are very dedicated to the work, constantly supporting the Care Workers in their spiritual growth. ⠀⠀⠀ The Sakubva pastors were able to hear about God’s heart for the vulnerable children as well as hear from the Chinaka pastors about their involvement in the CBO. The Sakubva pastors shared that they felt convicted because they were not doing their best to support the children. They committed to being more intentional in the work that is happening in Sakubva and Chinyausunzi.”#LocalChurch</image:caption>

Tim McLaughlin (long-time friend of Hands at Work, #Australia) shares a story from his time in Zimbabwe: “While I was in Mutare, Zimbabwe, I met the grandmother that is featured in this photo. Her children had either passed away or left; leaving their children with their ageing grandmother. In total, she looks after seven grandchildren and two other children in a concrete house that is too small to support the family. Her only source of income comes from collecting recyclable plastics on the streets of Mutare and receiving only $1 USD for a 90kg (200lb) bag. The situation is challenging but praise God for the Sakubva Community Based Organisation where her grandchildren receive one balanced meal per day.” Please #pray for this grandmother and the many like her that are struggling to provide for their grandchildren. Pray that God will provide; bringing them peace and comfort. #ServingTheMostVulnerable #HolyHomeVisit</image:caption>

Nomathemba and the team of volunteer Care Workers could clearly see that Vuyo’s family was desperately vulnerable. However, the lack of income in the home meant that the boys and their elderly grandparents were sleeping on grass mats and often going to bed hungry. The Care Workers knew what they needed to do to take care of the family. Starting to visit Vuyo’s home regularly and identifying their needs, the Care Workers were able to provide mattresses and blankets for each family member, helping them to rest well throughout the night. In 2017, Vuyo’s grandfather was given fertiliser and maize to plant, increasing the opportunity for a good harvest. Addressing these needs and more, the Care Workers truly live out the words of Isaiah 58:10: ‘If you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the noonday.’</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  We should never underestimate the voice of a child. Kids of all ages come to Africa with their parents and become involved in God's transforming work. Children often take home a unique experience and can become great advocates for the new friends that they make. “While I was in Africa, we went to Bhandeni Community, Swaziland. There was a girl called Angel, who was about four years old. She was quite sweet but tough on the outside. If she didn’t get what she wanted, she would act out in aggressive ways however she loved cuddles. It made me think that maybe she didn’t have parents and that acting out was her way of defending herself. Once you started hugging her, she wouldn’t let go. When I go home, I want to find a space to tell my friends about the time that I had in Africa. I want to share with them this story about Angel, the other friends that I met and the Care Workers. It can be hard to share and speak up for the children but I think that it is important. If other children are aware, they will tell their parents and hopefully the word will spread and people will understand.” - Barney Poulsom (12), Woodlands Team UK</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK When Care Workers in Chinyausunzi Community, Zimbabwe met Paul* and his family, it was clear they were amongst the most vulnerable in their community. Paul’s mother does odd jobs but these are hard to come by and, often unable to find work, she struggles to provide even the most basic necessities for Paul and his younger brother, let alone have the funds needed for rent and school fees. Attending the Care Point is an answer to prayer as it eases the burden that Paul’s mother carries in providing for her children. Yet the care extends beyond their physical needs. Regularly, the family is visited in their home by Care Workers, who bring encouragement and spend time praying and reading the Bible with them.</image:caption>

We are so thankful that these children are now receiving access to food, education and health care but more than that, we are thankful that they are getting to experience the love of Jesus through the Care Workers. Please pray that they will feel a sense of belonging and that they will grow in their knowledge and understanding of Jesus. Also, pray for our local office teams and Regional Support Teams as they serve these communities, especially as they begin to invite new people to join their teams."

In 2012, Hands at Work began working with the Care Workers from the Sakubva Community Based Organisation (CBO) to serve the most vulnerable children. Due to the extent of the need, the Care Workers were walking long distances to visit the children in Chinyausunzi Community. In 2015, the Mutare Local Office team and members of the South African Regional Support Team began walking in the community to assess the need and find a suitable location to support the children out of. Volunteers from Hands at Work were walking in Chinyausunzi when they met Pastor Sunday from the local Christian Marching Church who had a good relationship with one of the pastors on the Sakubva CBO Board. Pastor Sunday felt compelled to help Hands at Work start caring for the most vulnerable children in his community by giving the Chinyausunzi CBO land to use for the Care Point. Today the Care Workers from the CBO are caring for 75 of the most vulnerable children in their community.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Day 14 – Local Volunteer Care Workers Ask God to bring encouragement, strength and hope to the local volunteer Care Workers who have dedicated their lives to serving and caring for the most vulnerable. Pray for the Care Workers to be unified in Christ Jesus as they live out the biblical mandate to seek out the lost, the broken and the destitute. Ask God for more men and woman to recognise their calling to care for the most vulnerable within their own communities. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be a servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.  – Mark 10:43 - 45 Meet Privilege, a local volunteer Care Workers from the community of Chinyausunzi in Zimbabwe: Privilege has faced the reality of caring for her three children and one nephew alone, since her husband passed away and her brother left his child under her care. She is unable to find work and has no means of providing for her family. Seeing their vulnerability, volunteers from the Chinyaunsunzi Community Based Organisation (CBO) invited the children to come to the Care Point. As the Care Workers started visiting Privilege and her children, bringing the love and hope of Christ, Privilege began to gain a deeper understanding of the work that the Care Workers were doing and knew that she wanted to be a part of it. Despite her family’s unpredictable living situation and the struggle that they face to survive, Privilege has a heart of compassion to care for the other children in her community who are suffering. She became a Care Worker because of the example that was set by the other Care Workers when they loved and cared for her family. “I know that at times the family has struggled to have food in their house and needed to borrow from the Care Workers. Yet by God’s grace, she is a Care Worker who loves engaging with the children at the Care Point and playing with them in the dirt and dust.”  – Tyler Ralph, International Volunteer (Canada) #40Days2018</image:caption>

Many of these pastors have been around for years, but there was a need to challenge them in the way that they support both Sakubva and Chinyausunzi Community Based Organisations (CBO). Farai and the team brought the pastors from Mutare up to Honde Valley to visit Chinaka Community. They chose Chinaka because the pastors there are very dedicated to the work, constantly supporting the Care Workers in their spiritual growth. ⠀⠀⠀ The Sakubva pastors were able to hear about God’s heart for the vulnerable children as well as hear from the Chinaka pastors about their involvement in the CBO. The Sakubva pastors shared that they felt convicted because they were not doing their best to support the children. They committed to being more intentional in the work that is happening in Sakubva and Chinyausunzi.”#LocalChurch</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Meet Orianna* Four-year-old Orianna is a gentle, jovial and attentive girl who enjoys being read to and playing with the other children at the Temitope Care Point. It is here at the Care Point where she feels most safe and is taught basic kindergarten skills. She loves learning numbers. Although she is young, she has dreams of being a teacher one day. Orianna was identified as one of the most vulnerable children in the community when she was found by the Care Workers from the Temitope Community Based Organisation (CBO) walking along the road alone. They recognised that this was an incredibly vulnerable and dangerous position for a young girl, so they walked with her to her home. At home, they were greeted by her family and learned their story.   Orianna lives with her parents and older siblings in a small, one-roomed home. Her mother sells fish at the local market in an effort to feed her family, however the profit that she earns is not enough to adequately provide for the family. Orianna’s father used to have employment, but due to economic challenges in the area, he is unable to find work; leaving the family to survive on a very small income. The surrounding ocean bay floods the community of Temitope at high tide each day, leaving residual water stagnating around homes resulting in a high mosquito population and increased malaria contraction. Orianna’s family home is not exempt from this and their home regularly floods when it rains, adding another layer of vulnerability.   In 2017, Orianna and her older brothers were brought to the Temitope Care Point where they receive a hot and nutritious meal daily, access to basic education and health care. Orianna and her family are visited on a regular basis by her Care Worker, Mercy who brings support, encouragement and a Christ-like love to the family. Due to the dedication and commitment of the Care Workers, Orianna and her brothers are being cared for and supported which helps her parents who struggle to make ends meet.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Meet Katrina*. Katrina is no stranger to the challenges many children in her community face. In her four short years of life, she knows loss, hunger, rejection, and sickness. It is young lives like Katrina’s that motivate Care Workers in Temitope Community to keep following Christ’s call to care for the most vulnerable. Mr. Alet, a local volunteer Care Worker, together with Toyin from the Hands at Work local office, first met Katrina while they did visits in the community. Toyin and Mr. Alet knew she was one of the most vulnerable – not just from her story, but by her appearance. Katrina has lived through the abandonment of her own father, and tragically, her mother died while giving birth to her, which set baby Katrina on a path of illness. Katrina is often sick, and is quite small for her age. But thankfully, Katrina was not left on her own; her aunt took her in and began caring for her. Though she does all she can to care emotionally for Katrina, she is unable to provide for all Katrina’s physical needs. Mr. Alet recently began caring for Katrina, and when she first started coming to the Care Point she was very weak and required much assistance. But, God has sustained and greatly improved her health through Mr. Alet and the other Care Workers. In just six weeks of attending the Care Point, Katrina is already looking physically much healthier! The Care Point is quickly becoming a place of refuge for Katrina. She sees Care Workers as people to feed her and care for her health, and the Care Point as an opportunity to build friendships with other children. Through the Christ-like love and compassion of Care Workers like Mr. Alet, Katrina is daily being given a sense of belonging and great hope.</image:caption>

Without a steady income and with no one providing for them, her mother became very afraid and ran away, abandoning her only daughter. Happy was taken in by her grandmother, who is barely making it by, having no way to earn money. Even the most basic necessities, such as food and health support are a daily challenge for them. Even though Happy has endured a myriad of challenges in her seven years of life, God has picked her up and brought healing to her wounds. Local volunteer #CareWorkers have come together from many local churches in Oshoek to form Bambanani Community Based Organisation (CBO). They are passionate about helping Happy heal from the emotional trauma she has faced. They do this by coming to her home regularly to make sure she knows and feels that she is loved and valued. #CaringForTheMostVulnerable #PoorestOfThePoor #LocalChurch #Healing</image:caption>

She reflects on what it means to be a Care Worker: “When I was visited by Ma Anita (a member of the local Hands at Work team in Oshoek), she shared about the heart of Christ and what it means to care for those in need. After her visit, I felt a stirring in me to go and visit the Care Point where my siblings were attending. I felt Jesus saying that this is how He wanted to use me, as broken and poor as I am. I like how as Care Workers, we care for one another, along with the local Hands at Work team in Oshoek. I know that I am not alone anymore; I have my prayer family now. I see how our children’s lives are changing before our eyes and to see God’s hand in that is really encouraging for me. Besides, who wouldn’t like going on Holy Home Visits and spending time with the grandmothers of our children?”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK “On one of our Holy Home Visits, we went to visit a grandmother who is living on the border of Swaziland. She has minimal contact with her daughters, many times seeing them only when they come to leave their children in her care. As she has not reached pension age, she is unable to receive government support, making it increasingly challenging to support her and her grandchildren. When we arrived at her home, no one was there. As we sat and waited, I was impressed by the Care Workers’ patience and willingness to wait for the family to come home. As I waited, the Lord reminded me of Nehemiah 9:17 - “…but You are a God ready to pardon, gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great steadfast love; and You did not forsake them.” As I reflected upon God’s love, a question came to my mind: how is God’s love daily demonstrated to all of us? The answer came to me very clearly, that it is in His willingness to be with us in our good days and in our bad days, whether we acknowledge Him or not. He is not discouraged by our ignorance or waywardness. In truth, He chooses to love us steadfastly. In His long suffering, He waits for us to come into the knowledge of Him. Although the grandmother did not come home, I experienced an encounter of God’s love while we loved.” Mulan, a member of the Ridgewood Team from the US reflects on a Holy Home Visit in Sthobela A Community, South Africa.</image:caption>

Thankfully, as we were leaving the property, we spotted her in a nearby field, collecting sweet potatoes. When Ma Nesta, a member of the Hands at Work local office in Oshoek, called out to her that we were there to visit her, she immediately started making her way to the dirt road that led back to her house. As she emerged from the field, it struck me how much she was hunched over, seemingly labouring with each step as she came towards us. She had a warm smile on her face, conveying a message of “welcome!” without saying a word. I left the group and went to her, thinking that I might somehow be able to help her climb the slope that separated her from where we were gathered. I said, “Sanibonani” when I reached her and attempted to shake her hand. She resisted at first, saying in English, “Dirty...” As I glanced down at her hand, dusty from harvesting and deeply cracked with age, I was compelled even more to reach out again. I was struck by how her coarse hand grasped mine with such gentleness. I gazed into her eyes, and felt like I was looking into the sweet and kind face of Jesus. As she held my hand on our walk up the slope together, I realized that she was guiding me instead of the other way around."

While riding in the back of a truck on his way to school, he fell out onto the road while the vehicle was driving. He spent the following year in the hospital and at home recovering from his injuries, which set him back a year in school. On top of his already vulnerable life, Ferdinand’s file from the accident was lost in the police station and he was not able to access the therapy his body so desperately needed. #CareWorker Lily is using Ferdinand’s story to teach the other children about respect; that no matter how different people are from each other, they are equally important in God’s eyes. Because of the Christ-like examples shown by Ferdinand’s Care Worker, Lily, Ferdinand knows love and has a great hope for his future. Just recently, Ferdinand and his family received some good news – his file has been found! This means that Ferdinand’s mother can work towards receiving government compensation, as well as get her son access to the therapy he needs.

Rachel and Phil McLaughlin have inspired us with their dedication, support and keeping us informed and connected. Visits to Australia from George and Carolyn, the co-founders of Hands at Work, have also been a great encouragement, inspiration and challenge to be authentic as Christians, and not give up caring for the poor. There has been a significant increase in caring for the poor in our own community too – all part of God’s commission to us to represent Jesus in all that we do and say.” - Dawn Craig, Global Outreach Mission Co-ordinator and Hands at Work Advocate at Sunbury Baptist Church, Australia.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Craig Rebro (International Volunteer, US) meet with Japhet Nxumalo, the man of peace from Sommerset Community and shared his story:   “As we sat under a shade tree to avoid the hot African sun, I gained insight into what it is like to be a leader in a desperately vulnerable community. This humble man shared with me about his God-appointed role and as we discussed the topic of what a man of peace is, he told me “a man of peace is a person who stands in front of the people; leading well. The people don’t complain when there is good leadership.” He explained that a huge challenge he faces is not having the resources to help when there is a need. I observed a man with a deep conviction to be someone with incredible integrity in the face of opposition. I learned that he was recently in the middle of being persecuted by local leaders because he set up a fund to help pay for funerals for the people in the community. When he was called to a meeting by those wanting a portion of this fund to have for their personal use, seven trucks loaded with women came to support him. As the local leaders arrived, all of the women were singing songs in solidarity with Japhet. The leaders sent him away, seeing the support that he had.     As we walked to visit a woman’s home, it was evident that everyone knows Japhet. He told me that “he never quits and never stops” for the people. This unpaid and thankless calling that he has is incredibly humbling once you realise the magnitude of the brokenness in this community. Gentle and soft spoken, Japhet told me that his favourite chapter in the Bible is Psalm 23. He said that it is because God is his protector. Psalm 23, verse 4 says ‘Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me.’ Once you read the scripture, it is not surprising that this is Japhet’s favourite. It’s evident to me that a man of peace is someone that everyone in the community can trust and look up to. A man of peace is someone who is selfless, knows that his identity is based on his relationship with the Lord and who puts others before himself.”   The ‘man of peace’ is someone that Hands at Work identifies when first looking to work in a new community. They exemplify characteristics of Jesus in the way that they love and care for the most vulnerable.</image:caption>

Many of our Care Workers and caregivers are wounded themselves. Pray for God’s transformational grace and love to heal their inner wounds so that they will in turn pour out grace and love to the children they care for. Pray for unity and peace between these relationships and that God’s love would fill every void left from a damaged relationship.#40Days2017 In the rural community of Sommerset, there is a dedicated volunteer Care Worker named Theresa. It is fitting that her name is Theresa because she serves as a mother figure to the children in this community who do not have mothers. Theresa cares for and visits two children named Joseph* and Maria* who attend the Care Point. Joseph and his sister Maria are frequently left home alone without the proper care and attention that they need. Their mother has been known to disappear and leave the children for weeks at a time. Theresa has stepped in to ensure that they have a safe place to stay in their mothers absence. She has become a mother figure to the children. It has taken time for Joseph to learn to trust Theresa and to open up with her because of his deep inner wounds. Theresa's unfailing commitment to care for the children in her community has earned her the respect and trust of these two children. Now, Joseph is open and feels free to share.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Welverdiend Community, South Africa. The Care Workers from the Pfunani Community Based Organisation first became aware of Ntsumi* when she was just a baby. Noticing that her mother was not around and that she lived with her grandmother, they drew nearer to the family and began to visit regularly. Listening with tenderness and deep Christ-led compassion, they heard that Ntsumi’s mother, broken by Ntsumi’s father’s lack of interest in her baby, had felt unable to look after her child. Community-minded, warm-hearted and caring, Ntsumi’s grandmother does her best to provide a supportive home. She knows that a stable environment for children means that they will have the chance of growing into strong, anchored adults and has also taken into her care another little girl, Puleng*. But she is realistic: she knows that both Puleng and Ntsumi need a mother-like figure in their lives. Too old to work, she is dependent on a small government grant and struggles to meet the children’s most basic needs. Today, Ntsumi receives a hot, nutritious meal daily and support for her education together with basic healthcare. Being enfolded into the heart of so many loving adults has meant that Ntsumi can cope better with the pain of her mother’s rejection. The Care Workers, led by their love of Jesus, strive to understand the needs of each child in their care and, having been taken under their wing, Ntsumi, Puleng and the grandmother can confide in the Care Workers, knowing that they can explain their difficulties and receive deep understanding and help from willing hearts.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Audrey Sibiya (African Volunteer, #SouthAfrica) shares about what church mobilisation looks like at the Pfunani Community Based Organisation (CBO) in Welverdiend, South Africa: "There are two pastors who are actively involved at the Pfunani Life Centre: Pastor Richard Masuku and Pastor Paul. Pastor Richard serves as one of our board members at the Pfunani CBO in Welverdiend. We have a strong relationship with these pastors and they are willing to support us whenever we need them." Please #pray for more pastors like Pastor Richard and Pastor Paul in each of our communities across Africa to stand up and recognise their biblical mandate to care for the most vulnerable. #ChristAsOurFoundation #LocalChurch</image:caption>

He shares: "As a church, we are doing our part to show love to children and those that have been orphaned. We are playing an important role in looking after them and helping them. Some of them don’t have parents and they don’t have that love that children are supposed to get from their parents. I have opened my hands. Every Sunday, I say to people that if they know anyone that is sick, I’m available. Please let me. I’ll go. I’ll visit and pray for them. We are in one community. If we just fold our hands, who is going to take the responsibility? As a church, we must do something - not just by talking, but by action. These kids from the Life Centre are our future generation. If the church doesn’t play it’s role, these kids are going to disappear, and lose their hope and confidence."</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM  #CareWorkers are men and women who give of themselves to serve the most vulnerable within their community. They are often living in similar conditions to the children that they serve, yet they remain committed and dedicated to the furthering of God’s kingdom. They ensure that the children are effectively and holistically cared for not by simply feeding them but also by showing them what a life full of love, joy and hope looks like. Two of the Community Based Organisation (CBO) Coordinators from across #SouthAfrica share about what it means to care for the children: "When the children come to the Care Point, I am able to spend time with them and act as a mother figure. This time allows me to ask questions and ensure that they are doing okay. Many of our kids live by themselves and so it is important for me to play this role." - Coordinator, Mluti Community, South Africa "I love being with the kids. I love helping them read the Bible and letting them know that God is there for them." – Coordinator, Zwelisha Community, South Africa - #Servanthood #ChristOurFoundation</image:caption>

They came from Mozambique with their grandmother who took them in after their mother passed away. Gogo is currently away, learning to be a traditional healer for the next two years. The siblings have moved in with their older sister who works hard doing odd jobs, like laundry, for people in the community.

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM  #CareWorkers are men and women who give of themselves to serve the most vulnerable within their community. They are often living in similar conditions to the children that they serve, yet they remain committed and dedicated to the furthering of God’s kingdom. They ensure that the children are effectively and holistically cared for not by simply feeding them but also by showing them what a life full of love, joy and hope looks like. Two of the Community Based Organisation (CBO) Coordinators from across #SouthAfrica share about what it means to care for the children: "When the children come to the Care Point, I am able to spend time with them and act as a mother figure. This time allows me to ask questions and ensure that they are doing okay. Many of our kids live by themselves and so it is important for me to play this role." - Coordinator, Mluti Community, South Africa "I love being with the kids. I love helping them read the Bible and letting them know that God is there for them." – Coordinator, Zwelisha Community, South Africa - #Servanthood #ChristOurFoundation</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK There are many challenges that the most vulnerable children face on a daily basis, many of which are not even obvious. Sometimes when children move to stay with their other relatives, the language spoken is different despite being in the same country, creating isolation and loneliness. In 2020, Sylvia, a member of the Hands at Work team in Luanshya, Zambia, met nine-year-old Lilian*. She says, “I went out to do our normal community visits and I saw her sitting isolated at the Care Point, but I didn’t realise that it was because of a language barrier. The language that she speaks is Tonga. I know a little bit.” Sylvia learned that when Lilian’s uncle, who lives in Chibuli, discovered that she wasn’t being treated well, he invited her to live with him. Although isolated by her inability to communicate, Lilian is trying to learn Bemba, the local language in Chibuli Community, Zambia. She sees Sylvia as a mother-figure and the love and respect she has for her is clear.</image:caption>

On the second day, several more came because they had heard from those who attended what they had learnt and how God had ministered to them. It was like they had heard the true gospel for the first time in a community where different spiritual beliefs are prevelant. Thankfully Jesus showed up. The Primary Caregivers confessed that they had never really believed and they made a decision to step forward and accept Christ as their Saviour. They asked to meet twice a month to hear the gospel and share with each other in their Relationship Group."

Initially, when Amos was born, some of the family members wanted to take him to an orphanage because they were worried that his mother would not care for Amos. Thankfully, other family members and the Care Workers were committed to Amos and fought to ensure that Amos stayed in Mwaiseni, where they could see him grow up and care for him. Margret and her younger sister, Elizabeth, took responsibility for Amos and today, Amos is living with Elizabeth, her husband and their ten children. Elizabeth is acting as a mother-like figure to Amos and treats him as her own child. – Mwaiseni, Zambia</image:caption>

Over time, the Care Workers are learning what it means to be open and vulnerable with one another. Other people in the community have started joining these meetings because they have seen the fruit of the Care Workers’ time together and the positive impact that it is having on the rest of the community.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Mwaiseni Community, #Zambia. Since birth, Mwenya* has lacked full use of one leg and one arm. His father, realising his disability was permanent, abandoned the family when Mwenya was three years old. His mother tries to support the family through finding work each day, but this type of work – unskilled and temporary - is not a stable source of income. More often than not, she is unable to earn enough money to support her family’s needs. #CareWorker Gertrude found the struggling family four years ago, and her heart of compassion drove her to care for this family. She began visiting their home and building relationships with both Mwenya and his mother. Mwenya began attending the #LifeCentre and in the past four years has made immense progress. He is able to speak properly and his health and strength have improved. He freely interacts with the friends he has made at the Life Centre and, though he has a quiet and gentle personality, he has a big smile and is gaining confidence. #ServingTheMostVulnerable #Joy</image:caption>

Arrangements were being made by her relatives, but Betty*, Ethel’s grandmother, was very uncomfortable with the plan. She reached out to the Care Workers at the Malakota Community Based Organisation for help. Together with the chief in the community, they intervened on Ethel’s behalf to stop the marriage.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Clement* looks much better today than when local volunteer Care Workers in Malakota Community first encountered him. Malnourishment had left him sickly and lethargic; he was in very poor health. Under the care of his adult brother, Ivon*, Clement and his three sisters were barely surviving. Ivon relies on selling charcoal to support his younger siblings but has never been able to earn enough in this venture to keep the children fed and in school. When Care Workers saw the effects of hunger on Clement and realised the situation was not going to improve, they knew they must do something to support the family. When Clement was invited to the Community Based Organisation’s (CBO) Care Point, he began to receive, daily meals. The food made a big impact on Clement’s physical health and gave him enough energy to attend school. Norah, Clement’s Care Workers, visits him regularly which assures him that he is cared for and known. It is an encouragement to the whole family when she comes to their home. On one of her recent visits, she learned that Clement had developed malaria. Malaria is treatable if the appropriate medical attention is available. The brand new clinic in Malakota should have made the solution simple for Clement but when the clinic ran out of malaria medication, suddenly things became serious. Again, Care Workers intervened to save Clement’s life. Joyce, another of the Care Workers who serves in Malakota, travelled on her bicycle over 80km round trip to the town of Kabwe to buy the much-needed medication. Thank God for Joyce! Join us in praying for Care Workers like Joyce and Norah who have gone to great lengths to bring hope and life to children like Clement. May God continue to give them strength and perseverance to reach out to children and families in need.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  The overwhelming themes in Silas’* young life have been confusion, pain and tension. This can be attributed to the ongoing conflict between his family members over who should stand up and take responsibility for Silas. Silas is a six-year old boy living in the community of Maranatha. In order to provide for his family, his father goes into the Democratic Republic of Congo to make charcoal. These trips require him to be away from the family for long periods of time. Additionally, Silas’ mother is with her other son who has been admitted to a hospital in Zambia’s capital, Lusaka. It is unknown when either of Silas’ parents will return. So, for now, Silas is living with his aunt. Silas’ aunt is young and struggles to take on the responsibility of caring for Silas. Silas is without a consistent parental figure to guide him and teach him. A few months ago, Silas lost his eyesight but the reason remains a mystery. When Care Workers from Maranatha Community Based Organisation found Silas, they knew he was vulnerable and in need of their care and concern. Hands at Work is working closely with Silas’ Care Worker, Jack, to advocate for the young boy and his lost eyesight. In the meantime, Jack visits Silas and his family on a regular basis, reminding Silas that he is not alone, but instead, is very much loved.</image:caption>

When Paul first went to the Care Point, the only clothes he owned were ripped and torn and a few sizes too small for him; he had found these clothes in the local rubbish dump. Not having better clothes, and very aware of how he looked, he was embarrassed to go to the Care Point and interact with the other children and was too shy to play with them. So in response, the Care Workers provided him with new clothes and a school uniform. Paul’s story has become representative of the hope brought by Shoka Community Based Organisation (CBO).</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Throughout 2018, the youth from the community of Shoka in Swaziland started to become much more involved in caring for the younger children at the Care Point. As the year continued, they started to pray before and help serve their daily meal, lead games and help with the attendance list. This has helped to empower the youth leaders as they now have more responsibility and feel like the Care Point belongs to them.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK To see Gerard* today, you would never know the malnutrition and years of sickness he and his siblings have endured. Their mother parented seven children on her own after their father passed away from tuberculosis. She always struggled to make ends meet, but the COVID-19 pandemic made things even worse. When others lost their jobs, they stopped hiring her to come into their homes to clean. However, Gerard’s family has miraculously been resilient through these recent challenges due to the fact that they have a friend and advocate in Ma Shallot, a local Care Worker. The children no longer suffer the same illnesses they once did when they were barely scraping together enough food. When they are sick, they now know where they can find help and medicine. Energetic Gerard, who is eight years old, is now able to attend school and is in grade 3. His demeanour has changed completely. Where he once was burdened by sadness and worries, he is now bubbling with joy and ease. He can depend on Ma Shallot’s visits and the other Care Workers to support him and his whole family. – Kitabataba Community, the Democratic Republic of the Congo</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Kitabataba Community, Democratic Republic of Congo. When ten-year-old Alain’s* father passed away, his relatives forced his family to leave their home and took all of their possessions. Providing even the most basic necessity of food became a challenge for his mother, who suddenly bore the weight of caring for her family alone. With nowhere to live, the family wandered the community, hoping to find a place to sleep. Eventually a local church offered the family a small corner of their building, which they could only use to sleep at night. Although they now had a place to sleep, life continued to be extremely challenging. It was in the midst of their desperation that volunteer Care Workers found Alain’s family and invited Alain and his siblings to the Life Centre. The Care Workers visit Alain and his family, not only in their home but also at the market, where his mother works, bringing support and encouragement. Despite life’s continued difficulties, the Life Centre has had a tremendous impact on Alain’s life.</image:caption>

Pauline and her mother experienced severe burns, and 80% of Pauline’s little body is scarred from the incident. Despite pain and scars, Pauline has been healing well and at school she is a cheerful girl. Her Care Worker, Bertha, is also her teacher at the community school. Bertha visits Pauline regularly at home, and the love between them is obvious.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Many local pastors have strong influences in their churches and the communities they preach in; pray that they would grasp the core of the Gospel and speak truth to their congregations. Ask God to move in their hearts and for His promises to be deeply rooted in their lives, so that others may be brought to Christ through them.#40Days2017. In Kamakonde Community, Zambia, Hands at Work has made a connection with Pastor Joseph, a Pentecostal church leader in his community. As we have walked with him in Kamakonde and participated in the area of Holy Home Visits together, we have built a strong relationship with him. In April of 2016, Blessings Sambo met with Pastor Joseph’s key leadership team and shared the vision of Hands at Work. The leadership really caught and embraced the vision of caring for orphans and vulnerable children. They are standing together as a strong voice in this to the church alongside Pastor Joseph. Pastor Joseph invited Hands at Work leaders to speak to his entire congregation about how they can be part of caring for their community. Blessings Sambo and Royie Nazombe, (Local Office coordinator, Dedza – Malawi) who are gifted in mobilising church leaders, shared with them. The response of the broader congregation from this time was so encouraging. A number of people from the congregation expressed a desire to join the Community Based Organisation in Kamakonde as volunteer Care Workers, including two trained teachers. It is hoped that these teachers could be involved in the re-launch of the Kamakonde Community School in 2017.    </image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Kisunka Community (Democratic Republic of Congo) is a community divided. A stream runs through the middle, separating the Care Points called Kitando 1 from the other side, Kitando 2. For years, the children of Kitando 1 have been cut off from the school during the rainy season when the stream turns into a river. While many Primary Caregivers feared their children crossing the river, those who did would swim across with their school uniform held above their heads in plastic bags. They would dry off, get dressed and carry on to meet up with their classmates from Kitando 2. The community of Kisunka has recently been brought together. The local Hands at Work team in Likasi, the Care Workers of Kitando 1 &amp; 2, the Primary Caregivers, the church leaders and members from the surrounding community came together, united to find a solution to the dangers that children were facing in order to attend school. A decision was made to build a bridge across the river to ensure the safety of the children. Members of the community committed to providing the necessary supplies like sacks and wood as the people came together to start construction. The work started by diverting the water and securing the wood poles before laying on the top of the bridge. Today, it is safer and easier for the children to go to school. Several of the people who helped with the construction of the bridge have been interested in the Community Based Organisation operating at the Kitando 1 &amp; 2 Care Points. Two men have committed to being Care Workers. Hands at Work in Africa is committed to seeing local community ownership coming alive.</image:caption>

Taking on the role of breadwinner, Sarah’s mother tries to sell vegetables in the market. In 2014, when the Kisunka Care Workers were out doing Holy Home Visits, they met Sarah and her family and, seeing how Sarah’s mother was shouldering the family’s responsibilities, invited Sarah and her siblings to the Life Centre, where they could ensure the children would be cared for holistically. At the Life Centre, Sarah is joyful and energetic and enjoys playing games – particularly skipping – with her friends. She is hard working and serves the Care Workers by helping to clean the dishes after the children have received their daily meal.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Bonte* is a six-year-old boy who is one of Junelle’s* two living children. Junelle’s husband was working in a nearby mine when he was killed, and she then suffered the devastating loss of her first-born child in infancy. This grief and despair would seem too much for anybody to handle, yet Junelle gave birth again, a year ago, as a result of abuse from a stranger. Junelle often has epileptic seizures, causing not only embarrassment, but physical harm. Due to the unpredictable nature of her epilepsy, Junelle has been unable to find work. But God has not forgotten Bonte’s family. This can be seen through the life and love brought by #CareWorker Rachel from Kisunka Community Based Organisation (CBO). Rachel sees this family exactly as they are – created in God’s image and loved deeply as His children. Junelle has learned to smile again because of the consistent encouragement and love that Rachel has shown to her family. God has seen Bonte and his family and has heard their cry. Pray for the continued healing of Bonte and his mother, and thank God that He is using loving Care Workers who are dedicated to making a difference in their lives. #ServingTheMostVulnerable #ChristOurFoundation</image:caption>

Since the workshop, the local office team in Kitwe have led weekly follow-up sessions to build on all that was taught. Joining a follow-up session, I was so encouraged to see the way the children responded to the questions asked by Ruth and Eunice (Kitwe local office team). For the youngest children, they were asked to think about and draw a picture of what Jesus had done for them. It was sweet and yet so powerful! They acknowledged in a simple and yet profound way that Jesus had made such a difference in their lives!"

Cat Levine, a friend a Hands at Work from the US, shares the journey that God has been taking her and her husband on: “I never thought that I would end up in Africa and to be honest it wasn’t even on my radar. However, this changed when George Snyman, co-founder of Hands at Work in Africa, spoke at my church in Venice, Florida. I wasn’t at church on that Sunday but when I saw the church bulletin and heard the recording of George’s message, I was challenged by three words: ‘Are you willing?’ That was the first time in my life that I felt called to do something. I travelled with a team to Zambia in 2015 and then in 2016, I convinced my husband Aaron to join me. We returned to Zambia in 2017 and were blown away by the work that God is doing in Africa. We have travelled to Chibote Community, Zambia for the last three years which has allowed us to see the drastic growth in the community. It was during this last trip that I recognised a new openness among the Care Workers as they live together in community. The fruit of this is maturity of faith and unity in their call to serve the poorest of the poor. Our understanding of the Hands at Work model of care has been expanded. This new understanding has spilled into my understanding of what it means to ‘live this truth out wherever you are’ in my home in the US.” Are you being Called?

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Day 17 – Food Insecurity Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.” – John 6:27 Food security remains a serious issue in many of the most vulnerable communities that Hands at Work serves. The local Hands at Work teams are committed to providing a nutritious meal daily for the most vulnerable children. Ask God to give the wisdom, discernment and resources needed to be able to effectively provide this care. For the past three years the Kabwe region of Zambia has faced severe drought, which has had serious implications on individuals’ abilities to plant their fields and yield a harvest. Recognising the desperation of people living in our communities, particularly in Balaka, the Zambian Regional Support Team knew they needed to respond. With the realisation that many people were going without food and faced an additional level of vulnerability, they identified all of the Care Workers and Primary Caregivers in need of extra support and Hands at Work committed to supporting each family with one 25kg bag of maize per month for three consecutive months. This will help to ease the most vulnerable families’ level of food insecurity until their crops are ready to be harvested.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Twelve-year-old Alice* and her siblings were barely surviving ever since their mother passed and their father became mentally ill. They felt very much alone until they met Care Worker Asie. Asie helped Alice to begin receiving a daily meal at the Care Point. That meant that Alice could also begin school since she did not have to find small jobs to pay for food for her and her siblings. Alice feels her burden lifting. She has started smiling and engaging with the others at the Care Point, and she loves to help the little ones wash their hands before their meal. Alice talks to Mama Asie as she could her own mother. She feels safe opening up to her. Mama Asie visits Alice and her siblings in their home and shares the love of Christ with them. Alice knows she has a friend and advocate in Asie and does not feel so alone. – Toyota Community, Democratic Republic of the Congo</image:caption>

Erick Rukang, Likasi Local Office Coordinator, DRC, shares: “When we cast the vision of Hands at Work in Toyota, there were four pastors who came and embraced what we are doing. Since then, they have started supporting the Toyota CBO because they understand the vision. There are church leaders who have started advocating for our children at their schools because they desire to take ownership of their community. We have seen the fruit of God working in a Methodist pastor and his wife who are living near the CBO. They have committed to donating food and providing school books.  Some of the church leaders do Holy Home Visits every two weeks. When they do these Holy Home Visits, they have a glimpse into the situations that the children are coming from. Please pray that God would speak to more pastors to step up and serve the most vulnerable.”</image:caption>

She has been key in helping to set up and start the youth groups that have been happening with our girls on a weekly basis. A few weeks ago, the local Hands at Work team in Eswatini invited Virginia to come and help with a weekend youth camp for the youth girls from Msengeni A Community. Throughout the weekend, they learned about Jesus and were able to hear one another’s stories. During the camp, you would see Virginia surrounded by a group of girls, sometimes with their Bibles and notebooks and pens, just asking her questions, talking, getting to know her. Virginia was able to share with them that she was one of our children who grew up in Masoyi Community, South Africa, and now she is able to sit and share with them how God has changed her life. Virginia is a member of the local Hands at Work team in South Africa. (pictured in the front in green)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK “In the weeks building up to the Maranatha Workshop in June, there was a lot of excitement and anticipation mixed in with nervousness from both the Care Workers and the local Hands at Work team in Swaziland. Everyone knew that it was going to be a week set apart for God – a holy week. The week centred on 14 Care Workers from Msengeni A and B Communities and 2 young ladies from Shoka Community. Prayer from around the world, teaching from Busie and Audrey (African Leaders, South Africa), worship, ministry and support from the local Hands at Work team in Swaziland and a wider team from the Hands at Work base in South Africa poured into each day. It was clear, though, that it was not all these individuals who came with the ability to bring healing and hope, but only God. He came with such grace and power. 2 Corinthians 12:9 "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." During the week, we saw lives coming to Jesus for the first time or coming back to him after years apart. We saw levels of forgiveness which were quite miraculous because no one in their own strength would be able to bring such forgiveness, reconciliation, and ultimately, peace. As the women shared their deepest hurts, it was beautiful to see God lifting their burdens and be able to witness the beauty of relationship. The women spoke into each other’s weaknesses; encouraging, supporting and sharing how they wanted to walk the tough road ahead ‘hand in hand’. There is a journey ahead for each of these women, but for each one, they no longer walk it alone – they experienced the power of God and the beauty of their family of believers who are committed to their ‘freedom in Christ’. - Jo Poulsom, International Volunteer (UK)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  “Every year, the Methodist church in the small town where we live organises a charity event for the young people in their congregation. It is a good opportunity for these young people to aid a charity which involves gaining a deeper insight into the charity, doing a fundraiser and creating artwork that represents what they have learned about the charity. This year, the church chose to focus and raise support for Hands at Work in Africa. We started off the evening by going down to the river and each of the youth collected two containers of water to carry up to the church. Once we had finished collecting water, we shared with the youth about the water situation in Msengeni Community, Swaziland. We told them about the challenges that people faced in the communities in Africa and how that compares to their lives. Then they built shelters out of cardboard to sleep in on Saturday night. On Sunday morning, the youth had the opportunity to share with the church congregation about their experiences and what they had learned.” David and Jane Newsome, International Office Volunteers, UK, reflect on an event that was held to raise funds and awareness for Hands at Work.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Macadeira, Mozambique - December 29, 2019</image:title>
      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Cyclone Idai caused widespread food insecurity, with families losing their entire crop harvest. In response, Hands at Work mobilised communities like Matsinho in Mozambique – the hardest hit – to establish community gardens with fast-growing crops. In a time of mass chaos with many people feeling paralysed by the enormity of the destruction, this community garden provided a source of hope! A community meeting was called for Hands at Work to cast the vision to local people, and land was offered by a local church leader. A written agreement was drafted and put into place which specified the terms of the garden, including expectations of input and how the harvest would be divided. Since the garden in Matsinho Community was planted, two successful bean crops have been harvested and apportioned accordingly. With remaining funds from the garden in Matsinho, two additional gardens were also planted in the communities of Chigodole and Macadeira, in Mozambique. Potatoes and cabbages were successfully planted and harvested in Chigodole, and in Macadeira, potatoes and green vegetables were planted. These gardens provided the local Care Workers, Primary Care Givers, church leaders and children with the means for nutritious food to help combat serious food insecurity. An encouraging consequence was also an increased sense of unity built up amongst local people in the hardest-hit regions; people working together, despite their loss, to create a means of survival for their future.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Macadeira Community, Mozambique Henda* has beautiful, bright eyes that have witnessed much pain. After losing both parents, Henda and her two older brothers were taken in by an uncle. The uncle forced them to work long days of hard labour and did not even provide enough food to sustain them. As a result, David*, the eldest brother ran away. After some time, however, he returned to fight for his younger siblings. It literally took a violent altercation before the younger siblings were released from the hard labour they had been forced into. Henda and her brother Antonio* came with David to the community of Macadeira. While their brother’s love had bought them freedom, they still had no home, food or adequate clothing. A local church leader, Margret, took pity on the children and offered for them to live with her. But Margret also had no way to provide for the children. David looked for jobs to support them, but work was almost impossible to come by. When the Macadeira Care Workers heard about this family’s situation, they did everything in their power to try and provide for them. Even before they could officially welcome them into the feeding program, the Care Workers found ways to save food and deliver it into the mouths of the hungry children. Henda and Antonio would come to the Care Point in the morning and, because they were not in school, would spend the whole day there. Henda and Antonio loved it there and quickly earned the love and affection of all the Care Workers. When two other children in the community moved away, Henda and Antonio could finally, officially, become part of the feeding program and could also then be assisted with their financial needs for school. Tragically, in September 2017, Antonio was struck by a vehicle and was killed. Henda had been a witness to the event. The Care Workers and all the children grieved alongside Henda as she experienced yet another devastating loss. Antonio’s absence is felt acutely at the Care Point where he was so dearly loved. But we pray that the deep sense of belonging that Henda feels amongst the Care Workers and her peers will be used by God to bring healing and comfort.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Across Africa, there are men and women committed to speaking into the cultural practice and dangers of girls marrying at a young age. Kupa Kwashe, Hands at Work Leader from Zimbabwe, shares a story of Rebecca* (pictured back left), a girl in Mozambique and how the Care Workers and the local Hands at Work team in Chimoio, Mozambique, fought to ensure that she didn’t enter into childhood marriage. “Rebecca grew up living in Matsinho Community with her grandmother and three siblings. She was one of our children coming to the Care Point. As Rebecca got older, the Care Workers started hearing that she was entering into unhealthy lifestyles and were concerned for her wellbeing. They heard that she had entered into an early marriage with another young man from the community. Understanding the dangers of early marriage, the Care Workers and the Chimoio team went to talk with Rebecca and her grandmother. Speaking out of love and concern, they shared how Rebecca was too young to be married and needed to go back to school. Rebecca understood the message and what was being shared. She went back to school and even started coming back to the Care Point. We are grateful because she took our advice and waited until she was 18 to get married.”</image:caption>

Having experienced much trauma in her life, Sonia would frequently run away from her family, teachers and the school that she attended. Thankfully, the Care Workers did not give up on Sonia, but rather showed her unconditional love and grace. It is because of their commitment that today, 12-year-old Sonia attends school regularly and enjoys receiving her education. ⁠ #ServingTheMostVulnerable</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Cyclone Idai caused widespread food insecurity, with families losing their entire crop harvest. In response, Hands at Work mobilised communities like Matsinho in Mozambique – the hardest hit – to establish community gardens with fast-growing crops. In a time of mass chaos with many people feeling paralysed by the enormity of the destruction, this community garden provided a source of hope! A community meeting was called for Hands at Work to cast the vision to local people, and land was offered by a local church leader. A written agreement was drafted and put into place which specified the terms of the garden, including expectations of input and how the harvest would be divided. Since the garden in Matsinho Community was planted, two successful bean crops have been harvested and apportioned accordingly. With remaining funds from the garden in Matsinho, two additional gardens were also planted in the communities of Chigodole and Macadeira, in Mozambique. Potatoes and cabbages were successfully planted and harvested in Chigodole, and in Macadeira, potatoes and green vegetables were planted. These gardens provided the local Care Workers, Primary Care Givers, church leaders and children with the means for nutritious food to help combat serious food insecurity. An encouraging consequence was also an increased sense of unity built up amongst local people in the hardest-hit regions; people working together, despite their loss, to create a means of survival for their future.</image:caption>

They escaped to their second hut which then collapsed around them hours later. As I sat hearing this story, Celeste shared, “I’ve lost two of my houses but I saw God being good because we are still safe. I didn’t lose my life and neither did my children. I’m thankful because my children are not orphans.” Eventually, I asked about the plastic that was on the home, to which the mother responded that it had been fixed by the church leaders. They had come by when she wasn’t at home. It was the church people who had come and responded in their time of need, even though she didn’t even know who they were. Hearing her story, it was a story of hope and seeing God in the brokenness. As we rebuild, I want to be a part of it, because they saw the hope of my faithful Father.” - Busie Siyata-Jones</image:caption>

She was married to a man who struggled with the abuse of alcohol and was very aggressive towards Rebecca, often, shamefully, outside in front of her neighbours. One day, Maria, another Care Worker, invited Rebecca to join her in a fast for seven days to pray about the situation. On the sixth day of the fast, by the grace of God, Rebecca’s husband stopped drinking and has not been physically aggressive towards her since. Praise God! Shortly afterwards, Maria asked Rebecca to become a Care Worker. Rebecca agreed, saying that God didn’t ask for anything in return but delivered her, so that she could volunteer to help others. This was how she could serve and thank Him.</image:caption>

They were therefore sent to live with their elderly grandmother, Henda*, in a small, broken-down hut. In a tragic role reversal, Isabel was left to take care of her grandmother. Local volunteer Care Worker, Antonio, happened to be passing by Isabel’s house when he saw Henda lying outside on an old sack, very sick. Little Noah was trying to light a fire while Isabel had gone to beg for some maize meal. Shocked by their condition, Antonio immediately brought some food for the family and took the grandmother to hospital. He shared their situation with the other Care Workers, who quickly became involved in helping the family. Isabel and Noah were invited to the Care Point every day for a nutritious meal and the chance to be children at last. At first, Isabel struggled to play and make friends.

The mother has epilepsy, limiting her ability to leave the home for fear of where she will fall. Additionally, the father struggles with a mental disability, preventing him from doing skilled labour to provide for his family. Though he is known as someone who will do any work in the community, the income he receives isn’t sufficient in providing for his family, despite his efforts. Please pray that God will provide for their basic needs. Pray that he will supply them with the food and water they need.” – Jeff Giesbrecht, International Volunteer (Canada)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK "Our God is a restorer of hope. A little over 12 months ago this grandmother was dying of hunger, along with her four great-grandchildren. She was lain in her field with her starving great-grandchild lying on top of her when Mama Emerance, one of our faithful Care Workers in Kambove Community, saw her and felt stirred to intervene in the situation. In November the Kambove Community Based Organsation (CBO), with the support of the Hands at Work local office team in Likasi, helped her to plant a field of maize. There have been some unforeseen challenges with the farming but at least the family has some food security for now. More than this, however, this grandmother has hope and a reason to get up each day to continue the good fight to care for her great-grandchildren. Her life is still very tough and the story is not yet finished but we trust that God's transforming power in her life will continue.” Mel Warren, International Volunteer (Australia), shares about a grandmother who she met in March during her time in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Until late last year, 14-year-old Noah* had never attended school or built any kind of relationship outside his family. When Care Workers in Kalende became aware of Noah and his brother Matthew’s* extreme vulnerability, they slowly but persistently started to build a relationship with the family and invited the boys to attend the Life Centre. For the first time in their lives, the brothers knew they would have a meal each day and a place where they belonged and felt safe. Noah is now gradually starting to engage with other children at the Life Centre. The Care Workers recall a time in March when a group of children were clapping and singing together at the Life Centre. Noah came close to the group and began to clap along, albeit a few steps back from the circle. This was an enormous step for him; it was the first time he had engaged with other children at the Life Centre. Kalende Community, Zambia</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK In February, many areas in Southern Africa experienced high winds and heavy rainfall. In Zambia, the Kabwe and Chisamba regions were hit very hard. There has been significant damage caused to a number of homes within the communities where Hands serves. In some cases, homes collapsed in the night, leaving families with nowhere to go. Mary, pictured here, is the Primary Caregiver for one of these families in the Chisamba region. When the local Hands at Work team in Chisamba, alongside the Regional Support Team and the Care Workers, began walking in the community, they discovered that there were families whose homes were in danger of collapsing. Mary’s home was one of those homes. What had been a small crack in her mud-brick home was getting worse as the rains came down. Care Worker Brenda came to check on Mary and her family and invited them to come and stay in her own home for a few nights, out of concern that Mary’s house would collapse. The next morning, when they returned to Mary’s house, the roof had caved in and one of the walls had crumbled in the night. It was an answer to prayer that the family had been in the safety of Brenda's home when their house fell.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Chisamba Community, Zambia. When six-year-old Brian’s* mother was pregnant with him, his father left the home, denying that Brian was his son. Then, at only eight months old, Brian’s mother left her son. Since then, Brian has lived with his ageing grandmother, Mildred*. With little means to provide for her grandson, life was extremely challenging for the small family. When local volunteer Care Workers in Chisamba heard Brian’s story and saw the family’s vulnerability, they invited baby Brian to the Care Point. The care that Brian has received extends far beyond just his physical needs. Initially, when Brian started coming to the Care Point, he wouldn’t smile and the hurt and anger of being rejected by his parents was evident. With God’s strength, the Care Workers didn’t give up on him, and instead committed to helping Brian work through his pain and start a journey towards healing. Regularly, Brian and Mildred are visited in their home by their Care Worker, Winfrieda, who brings support and encouragement. The transformation in Brian’s life can be seen by the smile on his face and his desire to play with his friends at the Care Point. Mildred shares that “since the Care Workers have helped me, I can see a light at the end of the tunnel.”</image:caption>

Ask God to bring encouragement, strength, boldness and unity amongst the Care Workers as they serve the children. Ask God to speak truth and life into the lives of more men and women from the local church, that they will recognise their responsibility to serve. Pray for Hands at Work to have wisdom as we try to help our Care Workers improve their capacity to provide for their own families. “I felt a calling to serve the other children in my community. Seeing my own situation with a child, I wanted to be able to give back in some way and serve others.” – Rhoda is a Care Worker in Racecourse Community, Zambia Today, we encourage you to think about and pray for the Care Workers across Africa who you know by name.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Over the past four years, the Care Workers in the community of Racecourse in Zambia have grown to love 11-year-old Haka* as one of their own daughters. Haka, in many ways, has found the meaning of family through the Christ-like love that she has experienced from these women. In 2014, when Joyce, a volunteer Care Worker, was visiting families in the area, she met Haka and her family. After both of her parents passed away, and there were no other family members to care for her, Haka and her siblings were left in the care of their grandmother. When Haka was first brought to the Care Point by Joyce, she was malnourished and sick, but with a daily meal, her health began to improve. Despite the physical challenges at home, Christ’s light is shining through Haka and her family. The Care Workers see the transformation in Haka’s life as an incredible source of encouragement. From the tiny malnourished girl whom the Care Workers first found, to the joyful and loving woman that she is steadily becoming, Haka is a shining example of the healing love found only in Christ.</image:caption>

The week was broken in half: the first two days for the children and the rest for the Primary Caregivers. During the workshop for the Primary Caregivers, 38 accepted Christ. One of the grandmothers was struggling with a deep sadness because each year for the past four years one of her children had passed away. Yet as she shared her story God started the healing process in her life. Every Friday since the workshop she has been faithfully attending the Relationship Group with the other Primary Caregivers. Praise God for the healing and transformation that He brought into the lives of the Primary Caregivers and the children. Pray for continued healing as the Kitwe Service Centre spends time speaking into their lives through Relationship Groups.</image:caption>

When Care Workers found Noras and saw her vulnerability, they brought her to the Care Point where she receives a hot and nutritious meal daily and support with her education and health care which helps to ease the burden that her aunt carries in providing for her family.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK In July Foundations Training was held in the community of Nissi, Zambia, with the old and new Care Workers and church leaders. On the last day, the question, “What do you have in your hands?” was asked, the intent being to encourage and help the Care Workers and church leaders to think through what God has personally given them to serve their community. As part of the training, one group did a Holy Home Visit to a young boy and his grandparents, one of our most vulnerable families in Nissi as both grandparents are in poor health and are unable to walk or provide for their family. Last year, Hands at Work was able to construct a simple structure for them to live in just before their old house collapsed. In response to seeing the needs of this vulnerable family, the Care Workers contributed additional materials to finish the house from their own pockets. They also donated some pots and plates to the family. The repair was completed in July. The Care Workers are also committed to continuing to serve and bring the gospel to this family. This is local community ownership!</image:caption>

The little money he receives, however, is not enough to cover their rent. Their landlord is a kind and generous man who understands this family’s vulnerability. He has allowed them to stay in their home even though they are unable to pay him rent, but much-needed roof repairs have to wait.

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM After the death of his parents, 14-year-old Thando* began living with his elderly grandparents. Although his grandparents love their grandchildren and desire to provide for them, it has proven challenging. Understandably, Thando has struggled in the aftermath of his parents’ deaths. He has struggled to trust people and he lacks confidence. It was in Thando’s sadness and pain that he was invited to come to the Care Point. As his Care Worker, Poppy, visits his home and invests into his life, Thando has slowly begun a journey of healing. Even when Thando tried to push his Care Workers away, their refusal to give up on him demonstrated the love that they have for him. Pray for the most vulnerable children like Thando to find healing through the love of their Care Workers.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  When he was just a young boy, both of Mthobisi’s* parents died, and he was taken, along with his three brothers, to live with his grandparents in the community of Msengeni. Life was very difficult for them as neither of his grandparents had a way to make money. They were struggling to provide enough food for the family and send all the boys to school. Although primary school fees are covered by the government in Swaziland, children must have a proper school uniform and school shoes. Unfortunately, these simple items were far out of reach for this family to afford and Mthobisi and his brothers missed out on schooling for an extended period of time. The Msengeni B Care Workers saw the desperation in Mthobisi; not having enough food to keep him from being consistently hungry, and the vulnerability he faced by missing out on his education. They knew they had to do something to help. They welcomed Mthobisi to the daily Care Point in the community with loving arms, where he immediately began receiving a hot meal every day. In addition, they were able to provide Mthobisi with a school uniform and shoes to continue his education. One particular Care Worker, Sthembile, fought hard for this family and wanted to help even further. Through her hard work, she was able to provide the family with seeds and fertilizer for their crop, and assisted them in ploughing their small piece of land. This was a huge encouragement for Mthobisi’s grandparents and they are looking forward to having a good harvest, thanks to the good rains, to provide their family with food to eat. At school, Mthobisi is now in grade 7 and enjoys English, mathematics and social studies. He also loves to play soccer with his friends at the Care Point. It has become a safe place for him here; to play and make new friends. Sthembile continues to be a strong support for Mthobisi and his family, regularly visiting them in their home and sharing about the love of Jesus. Her encouragement and love has made a huge difference in Mthobisi’s life, bringing him closer to Jesus every day. Mthobisi is one of the 50 chidlren from Msengeni B Community in Swaziland who began attending the Care Point in 2017.</image:caption>

When I went the first time, I fell in love with this community. They are caring for 50 children but there are many children in need of care. There are big needs and many of the children do not have proper clothing. It is a tough place but to see the faces of the children and the light in their eyes when they play and sing is amazing.

One of the boys that I met, Patrick*, comes from a family with six siblings. His mother lives with them but she has a mental disability. He has two older brothers who are out looking for work to help support the family. One of the younger boys was wearing a skirt because the family had no other clothes. I pushed to visit his home because I saw the wound on his hand which had lots of bugs and dirt in it. I helped to clean the wound and show his mother the easiest way to keep it clean. It was unbelievably tragic because even after he had been cleaned up, the clothes that he was wearing were soiled and dirty.” Jackie Okinda (African Volunteer, #Kenya) reflects on a home that she visited while she was in Mozambique for three months, encouraging and supporting the Hands at Work local office team in Chimoio. Patrick is 1 of 53 children attending the Chigodole Care Point where he receives a hot and nutritious meal daily. Since he started coming to the Care Point, he received a new set of clothes. Pray for a continued transformation in his life as he is loved and cared for by the local volunteer Care Workers.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Cyclone Idai caused widespread food insecurity, with families losing their entire crop harvest. In response, Hands at Work mobilised communities like Matsinho in Mozambique – the hardest hit – to establish community gardens with fast-growing crops. In a time of mass chaos with many people feeling paralysed by the enormity of the destruction, this community garden provided a source of hope! A community meeting was called for Hands at Work to cast the vision to local people, and land was offered by a local church leader. A written agreement was drafted and put into place which specified the terms of the garden, including expectations of input and how the harvest would be divided. Since the garden in Matsinho Community was planted, two successful bean crops have been harvested and apportioned accordingly. With remaining funds from the garden in Matsinho, two additional gardens were also planted in the communities of Chigodole and Macadeira, in Mozambique. Potatoes and cabbages were successfully planted and harvested in Chigodole, and in Macadeira, potatoes and green vegetables were planted. These gardens provided the local Care Workers, Primary Care Givers, church leaders and children with the means for nutritious food to help combat serious food insecurity. An encouraging consequence was also an increased sense of unity built up amongst local people in the hardest-hit regions; people working together, despite their loss, to create a means of survival for their future.</image:caption>

Today, this is still very much the truth in Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo. Where Hands at Work is working in the communities of Buhimba and Luhonga, one of the biggest delights in my life is watching these little children come to the Care Point where it seems like the moment they walk through the entrance, a burden falls of their shoulders. They are free, welcomed, can rest and are known. For the short time that they are at the Care Point, they feel valued, loved and cared for. Maybe because it’s so dark and tough for our children in Goma that the strong contrast of the love and acceptance at the Care Point stands out like a tower above everything else.” - George Snyman, co-founder of Hands at Work reflects on one of his joys of being in Goma.</image:caption>

When Vince’s* father became ill, the family sold their land and all their possessions in a desperate attempt to provide the medical intervention and care he needed. But tragically, when Vince was just two years old, his father passed away. This left his mother, Natasha*, alone in caring for nine young children. Seeking some support to raise Vince and his siblings, Natasha moved her family in with her mother-in-law. But this did little to ease the heavy burden resting upon her shoulders as she worked her on a family plot of land and then selling vegetables at the market, or searching desperately for odd jobs in the community. Unfortunately, this did not earn her enough to feed her children or provide for basic needs in the family. When Vince turned six, Natasha did not have the funds for him to start attending school. When local volunteer Care Workers began caring for children in the community of Buhimba, outside of Goma, Vince and his siblings where one of the first families identified as amongst the most vulnerable. Care Workers invited them to attend the Buhimba Care Point where the priority was to give them daily nutritious food, the first step in addressing their malnutrition. The children also receive support with their basic health care and were able to start attending school. Care Workers Honorine and Bernadette began to visit Vince, his siblings and his mother, Natasha in their home. Over the years, they have built a strong relationship with the family and Natasha looks forward to their regular visits. Through these, she knows that she is not alone in caring for her children anymore.</image:caption>

Before we started building, Gogo Esther worked hard to clear the land. It was incredible, but at the same time heart-breaking, to see this older grandmother having to work so hard. We needed to level the ground, dig the pit for and pour the foundation, build the walls of the house and finish the floor. We needed to work fast to finish the roof before the start of the rainy season, and we saw that God was with us. The first night that they were able to be in their new home, it rained heavily. As I lay in my own bed that night, I was just so thankful that they were warm and safe in their new house.” – Caiver Bishop (African Volunteer, South Africa).</image:caption>

Siyanda’s father is unable to find consistent employment and finds odd jobs to try to support his family as best he can. He is often gone for months at a time, however, leaving the family without a father figure. Thankfully, they receive a child support grant which covers some needs, but they still don’t have enough to cover every meal and other basic necessities. By inviting the three children to the Care Point, Alzira could guarantee a hot, nutritious meal for them every day. Alzira and the other Care Workers could also provide a Christ-like love for Siyanda and his siblings, teaching them and reading Scripture together. Through this, she has built a friendship with Siyanda’s mother who now attends the Care Point herself to connect with other caregivers in her community.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Luhonga Community, Democratic Republic of Congo Shortly after the death of her father in 2017, Lydia*, her sister Joyce* and their mother Naomi* met Care Workers in Luhonga. The family shared their story of how every day, Naomi risks her life, going into a known thief and predator-filled forest to collect wood to try and support her family. It was evident that the girls were severely malnourished and that the life of this family was in desperate need of care and intervention. Immediately, the Care Workers took action and invited the girls to the Care Point. Praise God for the quick response of the Care Workers, and that they were able to provide Lydia and her sister Joyce with the care that they desperately needed.</image:caption>

The children began roaming the community, looking for food, security and belonging. When volunteer Care Workers found the children and saw their immense vulnerability, they brought them to the Life Centre where they could be holistically cared for. Care Worker Chenge took it upon herself to care for Pierre and his sister, providing them with love, security and a place to belong.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK “When Jesus said whoever welcomes this little child welcomes me, he was specifically referring to a child being at the lowest level of social order in Biblical times; unseen, unheard, and always the first one to suffer. Today, this is still very much the truth in Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo. Where Hands at Work is working in the communities of Buhimba and Luhonga, one of the biggest delights in my life is watching these little children come to the Care Point where it seems like the moment they walk through the entrance, a burden falls of their shoulders. They are free, welcomed, can rest and are known. For the short time that they are at the Care Point, they feel valued, loved and cared for. Maybe because it’s so dark and tough for our children in Goma that the strong contrast of the love and acceptance at the Care Point stands out like a tower above everything else.” - George Snyman, co-founder of Hands at Work reflects on one of his joys of being in Goma.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM The community of Luhonga is a rural village approximately two hours outside Goma in mineral-rich Masisi territory in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Luhonga is, in essence, an informal refugee camp. Hands at Work is caring for 70 children in the village of Luhonga, though there are still many children in this area who are in desperate need of support. Please pray: When people get sick with illnesses like Malaria it is difficult to have access to a clinic as the nearest clinic is about a two hour walk away and the road is difficult to walk and unsafe. Pray for medical treatment to become available. Thankfully, Joseph, one of our teachers in the school, has a bicycle and when our children are sick and in need of medical attention he cycles our children to the clinic. Pray for the safety of Joseph and the children as he cycles them to the clinic. Pray that our children will receive the medical care that they so desperately need.

Martha seeks comfort in many relationships with men, which often leaves her children alone for long periods of time. Four years ago, Jennifer, a dedicated local volunteer Care Worker from K-Block community, heard of the children’s story and visited them in their home. Finding the children malnourished and unsure of where their next meal would come from, Jennifer knew she needed to intervene and care for these children.

I was encouraged to hear their desire to be more involved in what is happening in the community and to grow in what God is doing. As I return home, I hope to take what I have seen in Africa and challenge our church leaders to become more involved in what God is doing around the world.” Joey Chen is a pastor from Sunset Church in the US, who came to Zambia for the first time, alongside Abe Lee, an elder in the church.

It was here that they met local Care Worker, Moji, who listened to their story and responded in love. Immediately, Joseph and his siblings were invited to the Care Point where they could be holistically cared for. Thank God for Moji’s quick response in bringing the children to the Care Point.

Busie Siyata-Jones, African Volunteer (South Africa) shares: “Looking at the children, it’s easy to distinguish who attends school and who doesn’t. Our fear was that the children who don’t attend school would feel out of place but that isn’t the case. Instead, those children are arriving at the Care Point early and helping to take responsibility. We long for our children to be healed, whole, feel loved, have a sense of belonging and grow in their character and understanding of Jesus. Amokoko is an answer to prayer." Please pray for the youth attending the Care Point to be unified, whether they attend school or not. Pray that they will come to know the unconditional love of their Heavenly Father and for the Amokoko Care Point to be a place of love and safety.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM A testimony of the engagement of the church leaders in Kawaza Community, Malawi, is their enthusiasm and willingness to participate in Community Prayer. This is a time set apart for the Hands at Work family in each country to spend time with the Care Workers, church leaders and children in a community, spending time praying, worshipping, hearing from God’s word and encouraging one another. Thank God for their involvement and pray that it will continue to grow!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Day 12 – Care Workers How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!”- Isaiah 52:7 Thank God for our volunteer Care Workers who are committed to bringing healing into the hearts of our children and ask that God would continue to lead them in supporting each child. Ask God to bring encouragement and hope to the Care Workers, who on a daily basis, give of their time, energy and resources to serve the most vulnerable children. Pray for our Care Workers to be unified as they serve and that more men and women would recognise their calling to serve the most vulnerable. #40Days2019 Mkwaila is a Care Worker in the community of Kawaza in Malawi and is committed to caring for the most vulnerable children. One of the children that Mkwaila cares for is 13-year-old Paul, with whom he has built a close trusting relationship. Mkwaila shares, “Paul and I are good friends now and he’s very open with me. He is more like a son to me. Whenever he needs me or when something is wrong, he tells me. When the father died, I knew that a child needed somebody to call ‘dad’! And that’s why, as a Care Worker, I’m committed to his life!”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK After months of not being able to meet, due to the restrictions, Care Workers across our Zambian communities began to meet again this week in their relationship groups. There was a hunger and a thirst to dive in to the Word, pray together and praise how faithful their Father has been. The local Hands at Work team encouraged our Care Workers from Maposa a community in Zambia, with scripture and testimonies of storms they have faced and overcome with the loving support of our Father.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK In South Africa, since government restrictions were put in place due to Covid-19, children are unable to play and eat together at our Care Points. In communities across South Africa, committed Care Workers have continued to cook each day for the children they care for, despite the restrictions. Recently, the children were provided with new containers meaning that, for now, the children are able to come and collect their hot, nutritious meal and take it home with them to eat.</image:caption>

Join us in lifting these girls up in prayer, as their vulnerability increases each day due to the government restrictions, which prevent many of them from attending school or spending significant amounts of time at our Care Points.

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Visiting the most vulnerable in their homes is a vital part of the way we care for our children. In Nigeria, even amidst the lockdown in Lagos, local volunteer Care Workers did their best to visit children in their homes. This week we praise God that transport restrictions have been lifted. This has enabled our Local Team to return to the communities and support the Care Workers by encouraging them in person. It also means they are able to visit children, like this family from Ilaje in Lagos, in their homes, supporting them spiritually and physically and ensuring they have access to their daily meal. This photo taken recently during a home visit.</image:caption>

We aim to be responsible, wise and discerning, listening well to advice given from health care professionals and governments.⁠ However we also aim to use this time as an opportunity to let love conquer fear and for Christ's light to shine in the darkness. We will not only continue in our work but, in the light of this challenge, will look at ways in which we can increase our care of the most vulnerable children and their elderly care givers.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK 16-year-old Joseph* took it upon himself to try and find a solution in helping to protect the children who attend the Care Point in Chigodole, Mozambique. Each day children come here in small groups to receive what is often their only meal that day. He arrived at the Care Point early and used the materials he could find to create small benches, metres apart, so that the other children could sit down at a safe distance whilst eating their meal. Joseph is known for being creative and willing to serve in any way that he can, to support the Care Workers who have made the Care Point a place where he feels valued and appreciated. Join us in continuing to pray for the most vulnerable families and for children, like Joseph, who responsibly and creatively take action in caring for their communities.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Joining a Medical Missions team in 2016 made me a better nurse and an even better person. When I arrived in Malawi, I was nervous and excited for the adventure ahead of me. I was initially hesitant to open up to the people of Maonde during our Holy Home Visits, but quickly settled into their comfortable embrace. I opened my heart and mind as I listened to people recount their struggles and sat in awe as they praised God for all that they had. During our clinic days, even when I grew tired, I found strength in the hope that was all around me. Every person that came through the clinic thanked me profusely for being there and caring for them. We held education days that included topics from handwashing to blood pressures, female hygiene to prenatal care and though we were teaching something new, I truly was the one learning. My time in Africa was not simply spent tending to the physical needs of the people. Each team builds a long-lasting relationship with the people of Africa that is sustained through prayer and love. I have stayed connected to Africa through additional trips and volunteering with Hands at Work because while my initial trip may have only been a short time of my life, the impact left on my heart was everlasting.” - Diana Kott (US)</image:caption>

Along with giving medical attention, we were also able to build relationships with the people in the community. Hands at Work goes above and beyond to help the people in the community through shelter, food, medical supplies and more. Even though the trip was only two weeks, it left an imprint on me that lasts a lifetime.” – Dana Adamson (US)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"The Medical Missions teams are what attracted me to Hands at Work. Their mission trips are so much more than providing medical care to communities in need. It’s about building relationships and creating a foundation from which these communities can grow. The work that we do on these trips is just a small piece of what this organisation does to help the people in these communities. And the medical work and education we provide these communities is something that they can continue to build on when we are no longer there. And that’s what makes Hands at Work so special in my opinion." – Sarah Payonk (US)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"This is me and Esther* in 2017. Esther lives in the community of Maonde in Malawi. We first met in 2016 when I was there. She didn’t say a word, and wouldn’t even smile. She just wanted to be held; so I held her as long as I could. I thought she must be sick, but a local Hands at Work volunteer in the community told me “She isn’t sick, she just has a broken heart.” I learned she had lost both parents and now lives with a grandmother. I saw her again in 2017, and this time she said a few words and gave me a smile. She remembered me, and it absolutely melted my heart. Thankfully, I have been able to get a few updates on Esther through the local Hands at Work team in Dedza, Malawi, and she and her grandmother are doing well." – Deborah Bullin (US)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK “As I reflect on our time in Africa last summer, the word resilience comes to mind. Resilience is the ability to withstand and recover from adversity. It is a gift that God has built into the fabric of His creation. The devastation, need, and brokenness that is commonplace to the people there is unfathomable as a way of life for those of us from western, affluent societies where "need" is used more figuratively than literally….” Read more</image:caption>

      <image:title>Germany News Room - Unsere Zeit in Mosambik — ein Reisebericht - Jürgens Erfahrung</image:title>
      <image:caption>»Die Reise nach Mosambik, hat mir wieder gezeigt, dass unser Einsatz und unsere finanzielle Unterstützung für die geförderten Kinder lebensnotwendig ist. Ohne diese Unterstützung hätten die meisten kaum eine Überlebenschance. Wir können nicht nur sehen, dass unser Geld ankommt und die Kinder lebensnotwendige Nahrung erhalten, sondern auch, dass die lokalen, freiwilligen Careworker sich ebenfalls um schulische Belange und die häuslichen Lebenssituationen der Kinder kümmern. Ohne diesen aufopfernden Einsatz der Careworker wäre der sichtbare Erfolg nicht möglich.« -Jürgen Lovacz, Mitglied des Patenprojekt Afrika</image:caption>

      <image:title>20 Year Celebration - My Life: Catherine Clarkson</image:title>
      <image:caption>“Ministering at Hands at Work has brought the scripture from Isaiah 58 alive in my life, which was prophesied over me when I was 19 and getting baptised. The verse is about spending yourself on behalf of the hungry and, if you do, that your light will rise like the noon day and will be like a well-watered garden. I’ve realised over the years that not only is the well-watered garden good for other people to feed from, receive nourishment and point to who God is, but it’s good for me to. It’s that mysterious truth that we read about in the Bible about how, when you give your life away, you gain life – and it doesn’t make sense because it’s a very upside-down principle. God has shown me that spending my life on behalf of others is the best thing I can do. A poet named Mary Oliver had this famous quote where she asked the question, ‘what do you plan to do with this one wild and precious life you’ve been given?’ That’s the question that I’ve always asked myself. I’ve got one life and one opportunity to spend myself. Am I going to do it for my own good, to store up riches for myself on this side of heaven, or am I going to spend it on behalf of others and make a difference in this very fractured world? My ministry through Hands at Work, through what God has done in my life, is that He has taught me that I can live a life that matters, a life that makes a difference, and I can be like that picture of a well-watered garden. He has given me purpose, passion, a reason to wake up every morning and an understanding that my life matters. I can’t think of a greater privilege.” - International Volunteer (UK)</image:caption>

      <image:title>20 Year Celebration - My Life: Jo Poulsom</image:title>
      <image:caption>“Before joining Hands at Work, God had already put in me a real love for women of different cultures and older women and people who are struggling and going through difficulties in life. One of my most precious memories is the chance that my husband Chris and I had to go to Moldova (which is near Romania), and my highlight was sitting in a hut with a woman who had lost everything, and I was able to hold her hand and be with her. Through Hands at Work, God has brought that special memory into almost a daily occurrence. I can be out in the community with the local Hands at Work teams and people who live here at the Hands at Work base in South Africa, and I can sit with them, and I can be listening to God, and I can be praying for them and supporting them and sharing scriptures and truth and just loving them. God put that heart in me. It is a really special place for me. Through Hands and our ministry here, I'm able to do that. Through being with Hands at Work, God has been revealing to me what his culture is more and more. Living with people and going out and being in different cultures rubs against my culture. It makes me wrestle with what is God’s Kingdom culture. How does he want me to live? Not basing it on my parents, how I grew up, or even Hands, but how does God want me to live my life and embrace God's Kingdom culture?” - International Volunteer (UK)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Prior to joining Hands at Work, I had been sent by my church in Kenya to South Africa for a church plant. While serving in this church, I met some people from Hands and got connected. Many years earlier, there was a prophecy spoken over my life that I would serve children who need the love of Jesus. In my natural mind, I translated this to mean that I was going to be a Sunday school teacher and I was going to do this within the church. It wasn’t until I joined Hands that I found out that there are other ways to serve children who need the love of Jesus and that completely transformed my life. The children that God led me to needed so much more than I thought or imagined. These are the most vulnerable children, but the love of Jesus is not only for them; it is for their Primary Caregivers and Care Workers too. I have come to realise just how much God loves people more than anything. Through this journey, my relationship with Jesus has changed and grown. I’m thankful for God allowing my path to cross with the Hands family as I have gained so many relationships within Hands and in the communities where we go and do life with our children, their Primary Caregivers and Care Workers. I feel so enriched and blessed to be part of this great work that God has called me to.” - African Leader (Kenya)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“When I joined Hands at Work, I thought that it was about working and getting paid, but over time I started to understand that Hands was more than work. It was a ministry. I started to find that I was also benefiting from what I was learning. My spiritual life started to change, and I learned how to care for my family. I learned a lot about the word of God, and I continue to learn about His word. I have seen a change in myself. The way I am right now and the way I have come to know God are different from what I knew and how I was at first. I’ve come to understand that this is a calling. The Lord has called me to serve the most vulnerable children, to work with the Care Workers and to help others who were in a similar situation to me.” - African leader (Zambia)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“My first contact with Hands at Work was during a study tour to South Africa/Eswatini in 2016. I was deeply touched and moved by the visits at the Care Points and by George, who shared his story with us. After our return to Germany, we advocated for a partnership between our church council and Hands at Work which was established in 2017. Since then, I have been supporting the “Patenprojekt Afrika” as a coordinator, and I am currently involved in setting up Hands at Work Germany. God challenged me deeply when I saw the need in Africa but also in the way the Hands at Work team and the Care Workers love and care for every child and every Gogo personally. In Africa, God showed me that discipleship is not possible without the care for our vulnerable brothers and sisters. There is a verse from Psalm 143 that God placed on my heart shortly after my first trip: “Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life.” (Psalm 143, 8). My search for “the way I should go” has not stopped since then – and I am sure that Hands at Work is an important milestone on this way.” - International Office Volunteer (Germany)</image:caption>

      <image:title>20 Year Celebration - My Life: Brenda and Craig Rebro</image:title>
      <image:caption>“The Lord brought Hands at Work into my life in 2008. I had been advocating in the United States for orphans and vulnerable children and felt that I should specifically help the vulnerable children of Africa. To make a long story short, after a few short-term trips, our family felt called to serve at Hands full time. Craig and I served for over three years when we felt our season at Hands was done. We thought we would go back to America, but the Lord told us He wasn’t finished with us in Africa. After much prayer and speaking with the leaders of our local church, our sending church back in America, and Hands, we knew the Lord was calling us to stay in South Africa and serve in our local church. It was there that we were asked to lead our main outreach branch, called Sinani. Sinani’s heart is similar to that of Hands, and in fact, we partner with Hands in 2 communities. Craig and I could not be doing what we are doing now if it weren’t for our years at Hands. It was there that we learned to fight for the most vulnerable and to never give up. We have had several situations where kids from our life centres were being abused in their homes. Unfortunately, the systems in place in South Africa aren’t always quick to respond. We have learned to run towards the problem. So instead of letting the system just work its course, we’ve had to push and fight for our children and never give up. The other thing we’ve learned is that the best gift we can give to people, besides Jesus, is our time. Our desire is that all of our Care Workers catch the heart of doing home visits. We want them to understand that we don’t just arrive, see how people are, and then leave; we spend time, hear their stories, and wait until God shows up. These are precious pearls of wisdom that we have learned from our time at Hands at Work, and for these, we are most grateful.” - Hands at Work partners and advocates</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“In Exodus 34, verse six, God describes himself as merciful and gracious and slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. Over the past six years with Hands, I feel like I've been able to get to the heart of the Father. To get to know on a deeper level those truths that He says about himself of his love, his grace, his mercy, his faithfulness, how he is slow to anger. I've got to know his compassion and that his heart is to bring healing and to bring restoration. He doesn't look away from the suffering and the pain. He is so full of compassion that he is constantly longing for his children, for everyone, to encounter his love because God is love and he is compassion. And when we see that, we experience healing. I've experienced that personally. Without a shadow of a doubt, I can say that God has healed me in the core of my being and that he has been restoring parts that have been broken. It's given me hope and joy. It's giving me resources to be able to recognise when pain comes up and to be able to take that and trust that the Spirit is going to heal and restore, but I've also seen him do that in the lives of our children, of our Gogos, of our Care Workers, and there is nothing better than watching someone who has experienced so much pain in their life, taste and see that God is good and experience his love. You can see the healing and transformation on their face. Even seeing some of the young people come to the Hands at Work base in South Africa; as we got to talk about God's love, as we got to go deeper into his word about it, you could see the youths’ faces transform before your eyes, as they realised, “I'm loved.”” - International Volunteer (Australia)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Earlier this year, I was driving back from community when another car hit the vehicle I was driving. Thankfully there was not much damage to the vehicle except the window at the back. The other vehicle was damaged beyond repair. Shortly after, I received a message from Suzette Tay-Lee (International Office Volunteer, US). She said, ‘Hello Michael, how are you? We are praying for you and your family.’ I was saved because at the time of the accident, someone was praying for me. This is the power of praying for one another. I want to encourage us that we need to pray for one another, especially by name, whenever God speaks to us. You might not know what situation the person is in – you may save his or her life in taking the time to pray for that person.” - Hands at Work Leader (Zambia)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>"As a young child, I always had a sense that Jesus was pursuing me and had given me a heart for Africa. In 2009, I began my journey with Hands at Work by spending a year serving in South Africa and alongside the local Hands at Work team in Mozambique. I instantly felt at home in this community as they ate, prayed, worked, encouraged, and worshipped together. It was something I had never experienced before but knew I wanted more of. My Africa had finally come! As much as I wanted to stay in my new homeland, God sent me back to Canada with the words "go and build community". Since returning to Canada, I have still visited Africa, served on teams and led camps for kids from Kalende and Mulenga. Then I brought teams to Mulenga, Zambia, the community I currently advocate for at Lakeview Church in Saskatoon. So, that's where I am today - building a community of people in Saskatoon who all have a heart for Africa and the most vulnerable. These people are more than advocates, prayer warriors, trailblazers, mentors, volunteers, and friends. Each of their lives has been changed forever because of what they saw in Africa. They are my family. My life has changed forever in so many ways. Hands at Work has shaped my faith, mentored me, and taught me to pray. The Jesus I know today broke my heart, opened my eyes, showed me a Kingdom culture perspective, and gave me a family. I am no longer an orphan but a child of God, belonging to a group of sons and daughters of a king!" - Hands at Work Advocate</image:caption>

One thing that I’ve seen is that people come from different countries just to serve and live for other people. Where I am today is because of other people who were there to support me. Remember that Jesus came here on earth and He died for us. He didn’t die for himself but He died for others. He came for the sake of our sins. And so that has helped me and given me a pure and clear vision that I want to live my life for others." - African Leader (Zambia)</image:caption>

      <image:title>20 Year Celebration - My Life: Tim Van Hoffen</image:title>
      <image:caption>"My first involvement with Hands at Work began with a short term team in 2014. My son, Devon, had left home a few months prior to this trip to serve for one year with Hands at Work. My wife and I thought it was important to see what he was doing as he was already talking about staying on for longer than a year. My wife Kathleen and I travelled to Zambia and South Africa with another son and a niece. For three weeks, we visited multiple communities, seeing first-hand the work going on in these countries. It was in the community of Mulenga that I believe God captured my heart to get involved. I didn't know it at the time, but it was in that time and place that I think the words of Isaiah 58:6-12 came truly alive for me. It was in this community that God disrupted our plans for that day. Rather than feeding kids at the Care Point as was our plan, my wife and niece cared for a paralysed gogo, and my son and I washed her clothes. In this very tangible, and I would add, very humbling act of service, God gave me a window into His love and redeeming work that captured my heart in a way that a thousand sermons never could. I left Africa knowing God had called me to something, I just didn't know what yet. Before I left Africa, I shared my stories with one of the leaders whose only response was to say, "So what are you going to do about it?". I went home with those words echoing in my head. I was resistant to this. I had gone to Africa to see what my son was doing - this was his thing. No matter how I tried, I couldn't silence the call on my heart to be involved. I contacted our Canadian office and spoke to Kristal. My advocacy for the Maranatha community began shortly after that. A few years later, we added the K Block community to that and I joined our Board Of Directors here in Canada. I also had this conviction that the model of Hands at Work, of mobilising the local church to care for the vulnerable in their community, was largely missing from the church in Canada. This eventually led me to pursue the ministry of Safe Families as my full-time work here at home. Who knew that God would use a short term mission trip, that in all honesty, was done just to check out what my son was up to rather than any real commitment to a call, would change the whole direction of my life." - member of the Hands at Work International Office in Canada</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“God’s changed my life completely. My personal experience was trying to climb the ladder at work and make more money and get that next title and buy a bigger house and bigger things. I was on my way to doing those things. I felt like I lived a very selfish existence. It was all about me. I wasn't helping anyone. I wasn't prepared to part with $5 to help someone else because it meant less in my pocket. I struggled with that and I didn't know it at the time, but what I realised is that Hands at Work gave me that opportunity to be open towards God and I realise as I look back, how empty I felt in my heart, and now I feel filled and whole. I've been given purpose and a direction in focusing on the most vulnerable and dedicating my life to that. I’ve abandoned my job, our home and our cars. I left that all behind to be doing this and I feel way more fulfilled here than I ever had in my life. I'm finding my purpose that God intended for me. I feel so fulfilled now in having that relationship with Him.” - International Volunteer (Canada)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“One of my highlights of working with Hands at Work has been how God has opened my eyes to see the way other people are living. God has shown me that there are people who are suffering and that they are close to God’s heart. I have learned the importance of giving what I have to the people around me.” - a member of the local Hands at Work team in Lagos, Nigeria</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“I remember my first trip to Africa as if it was yesterday. Each one of us on the team left so impacted. Yes, we were impacted by what we saw and the children we met, but what really impacted us was thinking about what Jesus was calling us to do now that we had seen. God doesn’t need our wealth, riches or expertise, but He wants our heart, and He invites us towards him.” - pastor of Wellspring church in the US</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“When I came to Africa, I had this thing in my head that I was going to come and change Africa with everything that I had learnt in school. But that wasn’t the case. It really sunk in during the first Holy Home Visit that I went on. It was at that point that I realised that everything I had learnt didn’t matter. What mattered was us sitting and spending time with the people we are visiting. I have learnt a lot about being dependent on God. I’m always blown away by the faith of Care Workers and Primary Caregivers – it still challenges me. How big is my faith? How much do I trust God with what I have? God said if you are faithful in the little things, He will do the big things.” - International Volunteer (UK)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“I am the oldest of three boys growing up in Masoyi Community, South Africa. My mum and dad separated when I was nine and my mum disappeared. Staying with my dad was good, but it got tough when my dad started getting sick and then passed away when I was 12 years old. We had nowhere to go and faced rejection from my dad’s family. It was difficult, especially for me as the oldest, because I had to make sure that there was food on the table. There was so much pressure on me. I had lost all hope. But then things changed. I really saw God when a Care Worker in Masoyi visited our house and understood our problems. It was life-changing because instead of worrying about what we were going to eat, we knew that we would be provided with food at the Care Point. Also, I had that chance to become a child again. After school, instead of going to work, I went to the Care Point to receive a meal, play with the other kids and be helped by the Care Workers with my homework. It meant a lot to us. Even today, whenever I go to the community, I see myself in the children. One thing I know is that one day those children will grow up and be something. They can look up to the Lord and know that He will provide for them.” - a member of the Hands at Work Maintenance team at the Hub in South Africa</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“One of the things that turned my life around was the experience of Holy Home Visits. I met Christ at home when someone visited me and shared the gospel. It was through that time that I gave my life to Christ. Then I joined Hands at Work where we say that our foundation in building relationships is Holy Home Visits. God did it for me, and now He’s calling me to do it for other people. I’ve met Jesus in those homes, the Jesus who sits with the broken and who understands the pain of people. I’ve sat in homes with no answers to people’s problems, but I’ve seen God coming through. Every day I ask myself, ‘God you say that to whom much has been given, much is required.’ What am I going to do with what people have invested in me? And now that is on me, what am I going to do with that? The Jesus that I’ve met here, that is the Jesus that I want to share with the world.”</image:caption>

A member of the Hands leadership will share a word of encouragement, and we take time to get to know our Care Workers and pray for them personally, and for their work serving the most vulnerable children in their community. Recently community prayer was held in Sthobela C, a new community in the Oshoek area that we are serving in. It was a special time of building relationships, hearing from God’s word and worshipping together!</image:caption>

She has six older siblings, many of them married with children of their own. Ana and Beatrice lived an unstable life until they met Care Workers from Mutaba CBO in 2016. Ana was malnourished and in desperate need of medical attention, and Beatrice was struggling with her own pain and brokenness. Over time, the Care Workers built a relationship with them. Ana and Beatrice’s physical and emotional wounds began to heal with the faithful love and care they received. Beatrice was so thankful for the way the Care Workers supported her in her darkest moments, that she became a Care Worker herself. Life is still a struggle and food is often scarce, but Ana has stability, she knows she has a place where she belongs and a heavenly Father who loves her.</image:caption>

They recognised that Emmanuel not only needed physical care (from food and access to health care) but, even more importantly, needed someone to love, believe and invest in him, and share the heart of Jesus with him. Taiwo, a member of the Ibadan team and the Care Workers have taken responsibility for Emmanuel: caring for him, speaking truth into his life and holding him accountable for his behaviour. There is still a long road to go with Emmanuel, but already there have been some signs of change and healing. Emmanuel is often seen singing, even leading in worship at the Care Point, and is starting to make some friends. - Alugbo Community, Nigeria</image:caption>

Today we want you to meet Beatrice from Chilipamushi in Zambia. “My name is Beatrice and I have seven children. All of my children attend the Care Point except the eldest, who comes to help. In December 2022, I became a Care Worker. I wanted to be a Care Worker because I was experiencing a hard time in my marriage and my husband died. I was very lonely and I didn’t know how to feed the family. When people started to do Holy Home Visits with me, I began to feel encouraged. I became a Care Worker so I could have fellowship with others and help others as I was helped. I likes looking after and playing with the children at the Care Point. Especially I like to encourage the children who are sad or look lost and lonely because she knows what they feel. I really like to talk to them and make them laugh.”</image:caption>

I could see how she was committed to visiting the children in their homes and caring for them. After hearing Kaj share why she did that, I decided to join because I felt challenged and I knew that it was from the word of God and is the calling of every Christian. I enjoy serving the children – cooking for them, visiting their homes and having time with them at the Care Point.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK In 2021, members of the local Hands at Work team in Chisamba began visiting the community and doing Holy Home Visits to the most vulnerable families. They met with the community headman, who also happens to be the pastor of a church there. Sharing the heart and concept behind Hands at Work, this man grasped the vision, and his wife became the first Care Worker in Kamaila.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK "Our God is a restorer of hope. A little over 12 months ago this grandmother was dying of hunger, along with her four great-grandchildren. She was lain in her field with her starving great-grandchild lying on top of her when Mama Emerance, one of our faithful Care Workers in Kambove Community, saw her and felt stirred to intervene in the situation. In November the Kambove Community Based Organsation (CBO), with the support of the Hands at Work local office team in Likasi, helped her to plant a field of maize. There have been some unforeseen challenges with the farming but at least the family has some food security for now. More than this, however, this grandmother has hope and a reason to get up each day to continue the good fight to care for her great-grandchildren. Her life is still very tough and the story is not yet finished but we trust that God's transforming power in her life will continue.” Mel Warren, International Volunteer (Australia), shares about a grandmother who she met in March during her time in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM  Kambove Community, DRC Liu*, is nine years old. In her short life, she has experienced great loss, which is not unlike many other children who have grown up in the vulnerable community of Kambove. After her father passed away, Liu’s mother struggled to cope with the responsibility of caring for her young children. In 2013, she fled the community and left her five children in the care of their great-grandmother, Theresa*. Theresa is in her late eighties and despite her best efforts, struggles to provide for the children’s emotional and physical needs. Read more about Liu and her family on our website.</image:caption>

They felt very much alone until they met Care Worker Asie. Asie helped Alice to begin receiving a daily meal at the Care Point. That meant that Alice could also begin school since she did not have to find small jobs to pay for food for her and her siblings. Alice feels her burden lifting. She has started smiling and engaging with the others at the Care Point, and she loves to help the little ones wash their hands before their meal. Alice talks to Mama Asie as she could her own mother. She feels safe opening up to her. Mama Asie visits Alice and her siblings in their home and shares the love of Christ with them. Alice knows she has a friend and advocate in Asie and does not feel so alone. – Toyota Community, Democratic Republic of the Congo</image:caption>

Erick Rukang, Likasi Local Office Coordinator, DRC, shares: “When we cast the vision of Hands at Work in Toyota, there were four pastors who came and embraced what we are doing. Since then, they have started supporting the Toyota CBO because they understand the vision. There are church leaders who have started advocating for our children at their schools because they desire to take ownership of their community. We have seen the fruit of God working in a Methodist pastor and his wife who are living near the CBO. They have committed to donating food and providing school books.  Some of the church leaders do Holy Home Visits every two weeks. When they do these Holy Home Visits, they have a glimpse into the situations that the children are coming from. Please pray that God would speak to more pastors to step up and serve the most vulnerable.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK There are many challenges that the most vulnerable children face on a daily basis, many of which are not even obvious. Sometimes when children move to stay with their other relatives, the language spoken is different despite being in the same country, creating isolation and loneliness. In 2020, Sylvia, a member of the Hands at Work team in Luanshya, Zambia, met nine-year-old Lilian*. She says, “I went out to do our normal community visits and I saw her sitting isolated at the Care Point, but I didn’t realise that it was because of a language barrier. The language that she speaks is Tonga. I know a little bit.” Sylvia learned that when Lilian’s uncle, who lives in Chibuli, discovered that she wasn’t being treated well, he invited her to live with him. Although isolated by her inability to communicate, Lilian is trying to learn Bemba, the local language in Chibuli Community, Zambia. She sees Sylvia as a mother-figure and the love and respect she has for her is clear.</image:caption>

So, when I came here, I found that they were talking about relationships. When I first started coming, I didn’t talk a lot but the people that I have met here have encouraged me. I’m a happy person because I am part of this precious group. I feel joy. Even if I share my problems, I don’t hear them being talked about outside of this group. There is confidentiality.” – A Primary Caregiver in Chibuli Community, Zambia</image:caption>

These accusations left Ruth feeling bitter towards the people around her, especially towards her late husband’s family. In May 2018 Ruth heard about the Relationship Group that was held for the Primary Caregivers in Chibuli and facilitated by Sylvia, a member of the local Hands at Work team in Luanshya. They gather together to read the word of God, share their challenges and pray with one another. One of the key themes shared is forgiveness and how God can bring restoration. Recently, Ruth was able to share about how much she has benefitted from joining the group and has learnt how to forgive those who have hurt her. She is beginning to heal and knows that God is restoring her.</image:caption>

On the second day, several more came because they had heard from those who attended what they had learnt and how God had ministered to them. It was like they had heard the true gospel for the first time in a community where different spiritual beliefs are prevelant. Thankfully Jesus showed up. The Primary Caregivers confessed that they had never really believed and they made a decision to step forward and accept Christ as their Saviour. They asked to meet twice a month to hear the gospel and share with each other in their Relationship Group." Sylvia Mwelwa, African Volunteer, Zambia reflects on a Maranatha Workshop that she had the opportunity to help facilitate earlier this year.</image:caption>

I will hold you up with my victorious right hand. – Isaiah 41:10 Today, we encourage you to pray for the most vulnerable children like Amos who you know by name. Hands at Work deeply desires for each of our children, to have a personal relationship with Jesus, knowing and believing the unconditional love that He has for them. Ask God to give the most vulnerable children a spirit of joy and hope in the midst of desperation. Through the Godly display of love from their Care Workers, pray for each child to feel a sense of belonging, hope and love for their future. #40Days2019 Amos* is a year old. For the first few months of his life, Amos was staying with his mother whose sister, Margret, is one of the Care Workers from Mapalo Community Based Organisation (CBO) in the community of Mwaiseni. Initially, when Amos was born, some of the family members wanted to take him to an orphanage because they were worried that his mother would not care for Amos. Thankfully, other family members and the Care Workers were committed to Amos and fought to ensure that Amos stayed in Mwaiseni, where they could see him grow up and care for him. Margret and her younger sister, Elizabeth, took responsibility for Amos and today, Amos is living with Elizabeth, her husband and their ten children. Elizabeth is acting as a mother-like figure to Amos and treats him as her own child. – Mwaiseni, Zambia</image:caption>

His father, realising his disability was permanent, abandoned the family when Mwenya was three years old. His mother tries to support the family through finding work each day, but this type of work – unskilled and temporary - is not a stable source of income. More often than not, she is unable to earn enough money to support her family’s needs. #CareWorker Gertrude found the struggling family four years ago, and her heart of compassion drove her to care for this family. She began visiting their home and building relationships with both Mwenya and his mother. Mwenya began attending the #LifeCentre and in the past four years has made immense progress. He is able to speak properly and his health and strength have improved. He freely interacts with the friends he has made at the Life Centre and, though he has a quiet and gentle personality, he has a big smile and is gaining confidence. #ServingTheMostVulnerable #Joy</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Kafubu Community, Zambia. Nine-year-old Jubilee* is the second youngest child in a family of five, and is looked after by his mother. However, he is in great need of positive role models around him. At Kafubu Community Based Organisation, there is a strong understanding of God’s care, and this compassionate love is demonstrated by the Care Workers. One particular Care Worker takes Jubilee with her when she attends church and encourages him to play with her children. These children have a stabilising influence on Jubilee and are good behavioural role models for him.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK “In K-Block Community, myself, along with Abe, were able to be a part of church mobilization efforts. The time that we had with the pastors was incredibly humbling as I was teaching older pastors who have persevered through many trials. I was reminded of the need for one another in the body as Christ as I have much to learn from others who understand suffering for Jesus’ name. I was encouraged to hear their desire to be more involved in what is happening in the community and to grow in what God is doing. As I return home, I hope to take what I have seen in Africa and challenge our church leaders to become more involved in what God is doing around the world.” Joey Chen is a pastor from Sunset Church in the US, who came to Zambia for the first time, alongside Abe Lee, an elder in the church.

Care Worker Violet has five children and one grandchild. She has been a Care Worker in Amlew Community for the last seven years. She lives right next door to the Care Point and for years would see the children coming and going. She would see their vulnerability and know that their own parents were not caring for them. She feels that God stirred her heart to see the needs of these children, and that she needed to be a parent to them. She loves to see the children playing and happy and she loves sharing her love of Jesus with them.</image:caption>

Ask God to bring encouragement, strength, boldness and unity amongst the Care Workers as they serve the children. Ask God to speak truth and life into the lives of more men and women from the local church, that they will recognise their responsibility to serve.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK In 2019, Justin’s* home life became extremely difficult when his father, who provided the family’s only source of income, went blind. Justin’s mother dedicated herself to caring for her husband, leaving Justin and his three siblings to carry more responsibility for themselves. Additionally, Justin’s father was in the middle of rebuilding the family home when he went blind and was unable to finish. This left the family living in a half-built mud and thatch shelter – the walls and thatch weakening with every heavy rainfall. It was whilst living in this state that Justin and his family met local Care Worker Richard, who could clearly see the family’s physical and emotional vulnerability. The children were invited to the Care Point, releasing them from the burden of not knowing where their next meal would come from or who they could turn to for support with their education and health care needs. Understanding the dangers of living in their current shelter, the Care Workers, together with the local Hands at Work team in Kabwe, helped to finish building the safe and secure home that Justin’s father had started. - Baraka Community, Zambia</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Day 17 – Food Insecurity Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.” – John 6:27 Food security remains a serious issue in many of the most vulnerable communities that Hands at Work serves. The local Hands at Work teams are committed to providing a nutritious meal daily for the most vulnerable children. Ask God to give the wisdom, discernment and resources needed to be able to effectively provide this care. For the past three years the Kabwe region of Zambia has faced severe drought, which has had serious implications on individuals’ abilities to plant their fields and yield a harvest. Recognising the desperation of people living in our communities, particularly in Balaka, the Zambian Regional Support Team knew they needed to respond. With the realisation that many people were going without food and faced an additional level of vulnerability, they identified all of the Care Workers and Primary Caregivers in need of extra support and Hands at Work committed to supporting each family with one 25kg bag of maize per month for three consecutive months. This will help to ease the most vulnerable families’ level of food insecurity until their crops are ready to be harvested.</image:caption>

Arrangements were being made by her relatives, but Betty*, Ethel’s grandmother, was very uncomfortable with the plan.

Malnourishment had left him sickly and lethargic; he was in very poor health. Under the care of his adult brother, Ivon*, Clement and his three sisters were barely surviving. Ivon relies on selling charcoal to support his younger siblings but has never been able to earn enough in this venture to keep the children fed and in school. When Care Workers saw the effects of hunger on Clement and realised the situation was not going to improve, they knew they must do something to support the family. When Clement was invited to the Community Based Organisation’s (CBO) Care Point, he began to receive, daily meals. The food made a big impact on Clement’s physical health and gave him enough energy to attend school. Norah, Clement’s Care Workers, visits him regularly which assures him that he is cared for and known. It is an encouragement to the whole family when she comes to their home. On one of her recent visits, she learned that Clement had developed malaria. Malaria is treatable if the appropriate medical attention is available. The brand new clinic in Malakota should have made the solution simple for Clement but when the clinic ran out of malaria medication, suddenly things became serious. Again, Care Workers intervened to save Clement’s life. Joyce, another of the Care Workers who serves in Malakota, travelled on her bicycle over 80km round trip to the town of Kabwe to buy the much-needed medication. Thank God for Joyce! Join us in praying for Care Workers like Joyce and Norah who have gone to great lengths to bring hope and life to children like Clement. May God continue to give them strength and perseverance to reach out to children and families in need.</image:caption>

Eventually she was taken in by a kind family who taught her about Christ. She wanted to become a Care Worker because she wants to make a difference in the lives of the most vulnerable, so that they don’t have to experience what she went through. Her desire is to see the most vulnerable loved and cared for. Today Esther, alongside fellow Care Workers, serves 200 of the most vulnerable children in the community of Susu in Zambia. Please pray for our Care Workers who have committed to serving across Africa.</image:caption>

She has challenging health issues and receives regular life-saving medication. This medication must be taken with food. Totela is often unwell and unable to attend the Care Point where she can receive a meal every day. Understanding the importance of her daily meal, the Care Workers have committed to delivering food to her home when she is unable to attend. They came together to contribute maize meal for Totela and her family and helped to provide lotion and soap to clean the rash that she commonly has. They not only bring food but life and love into her home. Alongside the Care Workers, we dream of establishing a second Care Point in Susu Community, so children like Totela don’t have to walk as far to receive care.” Trina Nkandu, Kabwe Local Office Coordinator, Zambia, shares about Susu Community.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK To see Gerard* today, you would never know the malnutrition and years of sickness he and his siblings have endured. Their mother parented seven children on her own after their father passed away from tuberculosis. She always struggled to make ends meet, but the COVID-19 pandemic made things even worse. When others lost their jobs, they stopped hiring her to come into their homes to clean. However, Gerard’s family has miraculously been resilient through these recent challenges due to the fact that they have a friend and advocate in Ma Shallot, a local Care Worker. The children no longer suffer the same illnesses they once did when they were barely scraping together enough food. When they are sick, they now know where they can find help and medicine. Energetic Gerard, who is eight years old, is now able to attend school and is in grade 3. His demeanour has changed completely. Where he once was burdened by sadness and worries, he is now bubbling with joy and ease. He can depend on Ma Shallot’s visits and the other Care Workers to support him and his whole family. – Kitabataba Community, the Democratic Republic of the Congo</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Kitabataba Community, Democratic Republic of Congo. When ten-year-old Alain’s* father passed away, his relatives forced his family to leave their home and took all of their possessions. Providing even the most basic necessity of food became a challenge for his mother, who suddenly bore the weight of caring for her family alone. With nowhere to live, the family wandered the community, hoping to find a place to sleep. Eventually a local church offered the family a small corner of their building, which they could only use to sleep at night. Although they now had a place to sleep, life continued to be extremely challenging. It was in the midst of their desperation that volunteer Care Workers found Alain’s family and invited Alain and his siblings to the Life Centre. The Care Workers visit Alain and his family, not only in their home but also at the market, where his mother works, bringing support and encouragement. Despite life’s continued difficulties, the Life Centre has had a tremendous impact on Alain’s life.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Until late last year, 14-year-old Noah* had never attended school or built any kind of relationship outside his family. When Care Workers in Kalende became aware of Noah and his brother Matthew’s* extreme vulnerability, they slowly but persistently started to build a relationship with the family and invited the boys to attend the Life Centre. For the first time in their lives, the brothers knew they would have a meal each day and a place where they belonged and felt safe. Noah is now gradually starting to engage with other children at the Life Centre. The Care Workers recall a time in March when a group of children were clapping and singing together at the Life Centre. Noah came close to the group and began to clap along, albeit a few steps back from the circle. This was an enormous step for him; it was the first time he had engaged with other children at the Life Centre. Kalende Community, Zambia</image:caption>

Ask God to bring encouragement, strength, boldness and unity amongst the Care Workers as they serve the children. Ask God to speak truth and life into the lives of more men and women from the local church, that they will recognise their responsibility to serve. Pray for Hands at Work to have wisdom as we try to help our Care Workers improve their capacity to provide for their own families. “I felt a calling to serve the other children in my community. Seeing my own situation with a child, I wanted to be able to give back in some way and serve others.” – Rhoda is a Care Worker in Racecourse Community, Zambia Today, we encourage you to think about and pray for the Care Workers across Africa who you know by name.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Over the past four years, the Care Workers in the community of Racecourse in Zambia have grown to love 11-year-old Haka* as one of their own daughters. Haka, in many ways, has found the meaning of family through the Christ-like love that she has experienced from these women. In 2014, when Joyce, a volunteer Care Worker, was visiting families in the area, she met Haka and her family. After both of her parents passed away, and there were no other family members to care for her, Haka and her siblings were left in the care of their grandmother. When Haka was first brought to the Care Point by Joyce, she was malnourished and sick, but with a daily meal, her health began to improve. Despite the physical challenges at home, Christ’s light is shining through Haka and her family. The Care Workers see the transformation in Haka’s life as an incredible source of encouragement. From the tiny malnourished girl whom the Care Workers first found, to the joyful and loving woman that she is steadily becoming, Haka is a shining example of the healing love found only in Christ.</image:caption>

Yet as she shared her story God started the healing process in her life. Every Friday since the workshop she has been faithfully attending the Relationship Group with the other Primary Caregivers.

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Discovering five year old Gift* at home with his mother, Maria*, and his younger 18-month-old sibling, Care Worker Charity was filled with Christ-like compassion as she patiently listened and pieced together their story. Looking after her two children by herself, Maria explained that she had divorced Gift’s father and that he had subsequently been incarcerated, therefore unable to help provide for his family. With an elderly grandmother to take care of in addition to her two young children, Maria was in despair about how she would manage. As Maria poured out her story, Charity was mobilised into action. She immediately arranged for the children to attend the Care Point, where they could receive a hot, nutritious meal every day and access health care and education. As Gift runs around the Care Point, playing with his friends, Charity looks upon this little boy as she would her own son. Gift, in turn, feels part of a community of children and mother figures who ensure that he never feels isolated or alone. – Maonde Community, Malawi</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  The overwhelming themes in Silas’* young life have been confusion, pain and tension. This can be attributed to the ongoing conflict between his family members over who should stand up and take responsibility for Silas. Silas is a six-year old boy living in the community of Maranatha. In order to provide for his family, his father goes into the Democratic Republic of Congo to make charcoal. These trips require him to be away from the family for long periods of time. Additionally, Silas’ mother is with her other son who has been admitted to a hospital in Zambia’s capital, Lusaka. It is unknown when either of Silas’ parents will return. So, for now, Silas is living with his aunt. Silas’ aunt is young and struggles to take on the responsibility of caring for Silas. Silas is without a consistent parental figure to guide him and teach him. A few months ago, Silas lost his eyesight but the reason remains a mystery. When Care Workers from Maranatha Community Based Organisation found Silas, they knew he was vulnerable and in need of their care and concern. Hands at Work is working closely with Silas’ Care Worker, Jack, to advocate for the young boy and his lost eyesight. In the meantime, Jack visits Silas and his family on a regular basis, reminding Silas that he is not alone, but instead, is very much loved.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Cyclone Idai caused widespread food insecurity, with families losing their entire crop harvest. In response, Hands at Work mobilised communities like Matsinho in Mozambique – the hardest hit – to establish community gardens with fast-growing crops. In a time of mass chaos with many people feeling paralysed by the enormity of the destruction, this community garden provided a source of hope! A community meeting was called for Hands at Work to cast the vision to local people, and land was offered by a local church leader. A written agreement was drafted and put into place which specified the terms of the garden, including expectations of input and how the harvest would be divided. Since the garden in Matsinho Community was planted, two successful bean crops have been harvested and apportioned accordingly. With remaining funds from the garden in Matsinho, two additional gardens were also planted in the communities of Chigodole and Macadeira, in Mozambique. Potatoes and cabbages were successfully planted and harvested in Chigodole, and in Macadeira, potatoes and green vegetables were planted. These gardens provided the local Care Workers, Primary Care Givers, church leaders and children with the means for nutritious food to help combat serious food insecurity. An encouraging consequence was also an increased sense of unity built up amongst local people in the hardest-hit regions; people working together, despite their loss, to create a means of survival for their future.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Macadeira Community, Mozambique Henda* has beautiful, bright eyes that have witnessed much pain. After losing both parents, Henda and her two older brothers were taken in by an uncle. The uncle forced them to work long days of hard labour and did not even provide enough food to sustain them. As a result, David*, the eldest brother ran away. After some time, however, he returned to fight for his younger siblings. It literally took a violent altercation before the younger siblings were released from the hard labour they had been forced into. Henda and her brother Antonio* came with David to the community of Macadeira. While their brother’s love had bought them freedom, they still had no home, food or adequate clothing. A local church leader, Margret, took pity on the children and offered for them to live with her. But Margret also had no way to provide for the children. David looked for jobs to support them, but work was almost impossible to come by. When the Macadeira Care Workers heard about this family’s situation, they did everything in their power to try and provide for them. Even before they could officially welcome them into the feeding program, the Care Workers found ways to save food and deliver it into the mouths of the hungry children. Henda and Antonio would come to the Care Point in the morning and, because they were not in school, would spend the whole day there. Henda and Antonio loved it there and quickly earned the love and affection of all the Care Workers. When two other children in the community moved away, Henda and Antonio could finally, officially, become part of the feeding program and could also then be assisted with their financial needs for school. Tragically, in September 2017, Antonio was struck by a vehicle and was killed. Henda had been a witness to the event. The Care Workers and all the children grieved alongside Henda as she experienced yet another devastating loss. Antonio’s absence is felt acutely at the Care Point where he was so dearly loved. But we pray that the deep sense of belonging that Henda feels amongst the Care Workers and her peers will be used by God to bring healing and comfort.</image:caption>

We set off on Simon’s motorbike but after only a few minutes of driving, it started to torrentially downpour. We headed up the dirt track but it became increasingly difficult. We sought shelter for a while and when the rain eased slightly we pushed on. Eventually, it become completely impossible and the wheels were clogging with mud and we started slipping off. We turned around and headed back down the mountain to find another way. We were completely soaked. We got someone to collect his bike and found other bikes that were going a different way to Chinku. After 5 hours of being soaking wet we arrived in Chinku for the night. Never once did Simon even consider not going and giving up. It wasn’t even an option. Simon is humble, teachable and eager to learn. He has grown in his willingness to challenge the communities that he works in, and his culture. He is becoming braver in fighting for our children and our communities. Simon is hungry to learn and is honest in his strengths and weaknesses."</image:caption>

She was one of our children coming to the Care Point. As Rebecca got older, the Care Workers started hearing that she was entering into unhealthy lifestyles and were concerned for her wellbeing. They heard that she had entered into an early marriage with another young man from the community. Understanding the dangers of early marriage, the Care Workers and the Chimoio team went to talk with Rebecca and her grandmother. Speaking out of love and concern, they shared how Rebecca was too young to be married and needed to go back to school. Rebecca understood the message and what was being shared. She went back to school and even started coming back to the Care Point. We are grateful because she took our advice and waited until she was 18 to get married.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Matsinho Community, #Mozambique. ⁠ When volunteer #CareWorkers met Sonia, they quickly identified her as desperately vulnerable and in need of love and attention, and invited her to the Care Point. Having experienced much trauma in her life, Sonia would frequently run away from her family, teachers and the school that she attended. Thankfully, the Care Workers did not give up on Sonia, but rather showed her unconditional love and grace. It is because of their commitment that today, 12-year-old Sonia attends school regularly and enjoys receiving her education. ⁠ #ServingTheMostVulnerable</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Cyclone Idai caused widespread food insecurity, with families losing their entire crop harvest. In response, Hands at Work mobilised communities like Matsinho in Mozambique – the hardest hit – to establish community gardens with fast-growing crops. In a time of mass chaos with many people feeling paralysed by the enormity of the destruction, this community garden provided a source of hope! A community meeting was called for Hands at Work to cast the vision to local people, and land was offered by a local church leader. A written agreement was drafted and put into place which specified the terms of the garden, including expectations of input and how the harvest would be divided. Since the garden in Matsinho Community was planted, two successful bean crops have been harvested and apportioned accordingly. With remaining funds from the garden in Matsinho, two additional gardens were also planted in the communities of Chigodole and Macadeira, in Mozambique. Potatoes and cabbages were successfully planted and harvested in Chigodole, and in Macadeira, potatoes and green vegetables were planted. These gardens provided the local Care Workers, Primary Care Givers, church leaders and children with the means for nutritious food to help combat serious food insecurity. An encouraging consequence was also an increased sense of unity built up amongst local people in the hardest-hit regions; people working together, despite their loss, to create a means of survival for their future.</image:caption>

They escaped to their second hut which then collapsed around them hours later. As I sat hearing this story, Celeste shared, “I’ve lost two of my houses but I saw God being good because we are still safe. I didn’t lose my life and neither did my children. I’m thankful because my children are not orphans.” Eventually, I asked about the plastic that was on the home, to which the mother responded that it had been fixed by the church leaders. They had come by when she wasn’t at home. It was the church people who had come and responded in their time of need, even though she didn’t even know who they were. Hearing her story, it was a story of hope and seeing God in the brokenness. As we rebuild, I want to be a part of it, because they saw the hope of my faithful Father.” - Busie Siyata-Jones</image:caption>

She was married to a man who struggled with the abuse of alcohol and was very aggressive towards Rebecca, often, shamefully, outside in front of her neighbours. One day, Maria, another Care Worker, invited Rebecca to join her in a fast for seven days to pray about the situation. On the sixth day of the fast, by the grace of God, Rebecca’s husband stopped drinking and has not been physically aggressive towards her since. Praise God! Shortly afterwards, Maria asked Rebecca to become a Care Worker. Rebecca agreed, saying that God didn’t ask for anything in return but delivered her, so that she could volunteer to help others. This was how she could serve and thank Him.</image:caption>

They were therefore sent to live with their elderly grandmother, Henda*, in a small, broken-down hut. In a tragic role reversal, Isabel was left to take care of her grandmother. Local volunteer Care Worker, Antonio, happened to be passing by Isabel’s house when he saw Henda lying outside on an old sack, very sick. Little Noah was trying to light a fire while Isabel had gone to beg for some maize meal. Shocked by their condition, Antonio immediately brought some food for the family and took the grandmother to hospital. He shared their situation with the other Care Workers, who quickly became involved in helping the family. Isabel and Noah were invited to the Care Point every day for a nutritious meal and the chance to be children at last. At first, Isabel struggled to play and make friends. But over time, slowly, she began to blossom under the motherly love of the Care Workers and through meeting other children who had lived through similar circumstances.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Bhandeni Community, Swaziland. 12-year-old Vuyo* lives with his younger brother and grandparents, who are unable to work and only receive a small pension of R200 per month (approximately $20.). Nomathemba and the team of volunteer Care Workers could clearly see that Vuyo’s family was desperately vulnerable. However, the lack of income in the home meant that the boys and their elderly grandparents were sleeping on grass mats and often going to bed hungry. The Care Workers knew what they needed to do to take care of the family. Starting to visit Vuyo’s home regularly and identifying their needs, the Care Workers were able to provide mattresses and blankets for each family member, helping them to rest well throughout the night. In 2017, Vuyo’s grandfather was given fertiliser and maize to plant, increasing the opportunity for a good harvest. Addressing these needs and more, the Care Workers truly live out the words of Isaiah 58:10: ‘If you pour yourself out for the hungry and satisfy the desire of the afflicted, then shall your light rise in the darkness and your gloom be as the noonday.’</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  We should never underestimate the voice of a child. Kids of all ages come to Africa with their parents and become involved in God's transforming work. Children often take home a unique experience and can become great advocates for the new friends that they make. “While I was in Africa, we went to Bhandeni Community, Swaziland. There was a girl called Angel, who was about four years old. She was quite sweet but tough on the outside. If she didn’t get what she wanted, she would act out in aggressive ways however she loved cuddles. It made me think that maybe she didn’t have parents and that acting out was her way of defending herself. Once you started hugging her, she wouldn’t let go. When I go home, I want to find a space to tell my friends about the time that I had in Africa. I want to share with them this story about Angel, the other friends that I met and the Care Workers. It can be hard to share and speak up for the children but I think that it is important. If other children are aware, they will tell their parents and hopefully the word will spread and people will understand.” - Barney Poulsom (12), Woodlands Team UK</image:caption>

It is a gift that God has built into the fabric of His creation. The devastation, need, and brokenness that is commonplace to the people there is unfathomable as a way of life for those of us from western, affluent societies where "need" is used more figuratively than literally….” Read more</image:caption>

Therefore, it is essential to create a safe, stimulating space for early learning. Daily activities such as talking, singing and playing, within the care of intentional, nurturing adults, stimulate brain development and dramatically influence future health, learning and behaviour in positive ways.

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM When Care Worker Nomzamo found Ruth* and her siblings, she began regularly visiting the family. Nomzamo spent time encouraging the children's father about his responsibility to care for them. The children began attending the Care Point, and the transformation Nomzamo has seen in their life over the years is remarkable. Ruth has grown into a healthy and joyful girl, who loves to spend time with her friends. When Ruth was eight, with the faithful support of Nomzamo, her father’s home became a more stable environment and she began to attend school. Nomzamo continues to visit the family on a regular basis, encouraging them and praying with them. Providing for the children's most basic needs continues to be a challenge for their father. Consistent work is very difficult to find in Shoka. Today, despite the struggles, it is clear that Ruth’s father loves her and is doing the best he can to care for her. – Shoka Community, #Eswatini #CareWorkers #Hope</image:caption>

At the end of visiting one of our Care Workers in Shoka, before she was going to pray, she asked the Care Worker, “Can you explain to me what you meant what you said that the mountain is too steep for you to climb?”. That question was the breakthrough in that Holy Home Visit. By the time that she prayed, we had gotten the full story, the Care Worker was weeping and had opened up. It was beautiful to see someone as young as Sphesihle be sensitive to the Holy Home Visit. She truly is a gift.” – Busie Sityatha-Jones, Hands at Work Leader</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Shoka Community, Swaziland. Eight-year-old Paul lives with his grandmother. She cares for Paul together with his three siblings as best she can. But the burden of caring for all of these children was heavy for Paul’s grandmother. When Paul first went to the Care Point, the only clothes he owned were ripped and torn and a few sizes too small for him; he had found these clothes in the local rubbish dump. Not having better clothes, and very aware of how he looked, he was embarrassed to go to the Care Point and interact with the other children and was too shy to play with them. So in response, the Care Workers provided him with new clothes and a school uniform. Paul’s story has become representative of the hope brought by Shoka Community Based Organisation (CBO).</image:caption>

Before we started building, Gogo Esther worked hard to clear the land. It was incredible, but at the same time heart-breaking, to see this older grandmother having to work so hard. We needed to level the ground, dig the pit for and pour the foundation, build the walls of the house and finish the floor. We needed to work fast to finish the roof before the start of the rainy season, and we saw that God was with us. The first night that they were able to be in their new home, it rained heavily. As I lay in my own bed that night, I was just so thankful that they were warm and safe in their new house.” – Caiver Bishop (African Volunteer, South Africa).</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Mafambisa Community, South Africa 14-year-old Siyanda lives with his mother and two siblings. His mother is South African born but his father is from Mozambique. Siyanda’s father is unable to find consistent employment and finds odd jobs to try to support his family as best he can. He is often gone for months at a time, however, leaving the family without a father figure. Thankfully, they receive a child support grant which covers some needs, but they still don’t have enough to cover every meal and other basic necessities. By inviting the three children to the Care Point, Alzira could guarantee a hot, nutritious meal for them every day. Alzira and the other Care Workers could also provide a Christ-like love for Siyanda and his siblings, teaching them and reading Scripture together. Through this, she has built a friendship with Siyanda’s mother who now attends the Care Point herself to connect with other caregivers in her community. Though Siyanda’s family has only known the involvement of the CBO for a short time, Christ’s love is already breaking through and hope is beginning to shine!</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM “The first day with the children was really tough. They were easily distracted and didn’t seem to be responding to what we were teaching. By the end of the day, we were tired and didn’t have a lot of energy left. Thankfully, our God is a faithful God, and by the following morning we had much more energy. As we spent time with the children, we had a breakthrough, and the children that we were meeting with didn’t seem like the same children as the day before. It could only have been God who came into their hearts.” Pinky Ngutshane, member of the Hazyview Local Office team, shares about a highlight from the Maranatha Workshop for the Primary Caregivers and children in the community of Mafambisa in South Africa.</image:caption>

Without a steady income and with no one providing for them, her mother became very afraid and ran away, abandoning her only daughter. Happy was taken in by her grandmother, who is barely making it by, having no way to earn money. Even the most basic necessities, such as food and health support are a daily challenge for them. Even though Happy has endured a myriad of challenges in her seven years of life, God has picked her up and brought healing to her wounds. Local volunteer #CareWorkers have come together from many local churches in Oshoek to form Bambanani Community Based Organisation (CBO). They are passionate about helping Happy heal from the emotional trauma she has faced. They do this by coming to her home regularly to make sure she knows and feels that she is loved and valued. #CaringForTheMostVulnerable #PoorestOfThePoor #LocalChurch #Healing</image:caption>

They came from Mozambique with their grandmother who took them in after their mother passed away. Gogo is currently away, learning to be a traditional healer for the next two years. The siblings have moved in with their older sister who works hard doing odd jobs, like laundry, for people in the community. Sadly, the family has no documentation, meaning they can't access any government support. But they know that Jesus has a plan for them, and he has given them Nolwazi for support. She loves Frank and his siblings like her own children, supporting them practically and emotionally. Nolwazi has seen them grow and change since they joined the Care Point in 2017. She says they are respectful, loving, and enjoy each other’s company. - Mluti Community, South Africa</image:caption>

They are often living in similar conditions to the children that they serve, yet they remain committed and dedicated to the furthering of God’s kingdom.

This time allows me to ask questions and ensure that they are doing okay. Many of our kids live by themselves and so it is important for me to play this role." - Coordinator, Mluti Community, South Africa "I love being with the kids.

Betty is caring for three children, two of whom were previously orphaned and had nowhere to go. All of her children come to the Care Point. Betty knows that she can count on Pinky and the other Care Workers to support her in the challenges that she faces, because she has experienced their unconditional support in the past. When her grandson passed away, the Care Workers surrounded a grieving Betty with love and Christ-like compassion. Today, Betty and Pinky are committed to working together to care for the children, knowing that they can count on each other and both want the best for the children.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Welverdiend Community, South Africa. The Care Workers from the Pfunani Community Based Organisation first became aware of Ntsumi* when she was just a baby. Noticing that her mother was not around and that she lived with her grandmother, they drew nearer to the family and began to visit regularly. Listening with tenderness and deep Christ-led compassion, they heard that Ntsumi’s mother, broken by Ntsumi’s father’s lack of interest in her baby, had felt unable to look after her child. Community-minded, warm-hearted and caring, Ntsumi’s grandmother does her best to provide a supportive home. She knows that a stable environment for children means that they will have the chance of growing into strong, anchored adults and has also taken into her care another little girl, Puleng*. But she is realistic: she knows that both Puleng and Ntsumi need a mother-like figure in their lives. Too old to work, she is dependent on a small government grant and struggles to meet the children’s most basic needs. Today, Ntsumi receives a hot, nutritious meal daily and support for her education together with basic healthcare. Being enfolded into the heart of so many loving adults has meant that Ntsumi can cope better with the pain of her mother’s rejection. The Care Workers, led by their love of Jesus, strive to understand the needs of each child in their care and, having been taken under their wing, Ntsumi, Puleng and the grandmother can confide in the Care Workers, knowing that they can explain their difficulties and receive deep understanding and help from willing hearts.</image:caption>

Some of them don’t have parents and they don’t have that love that children are supposed to get from their parents. I have opened my hands. Every Sunday, I say to people that if they know anyone that is sick, I’m available. Please let me. I’ll go. I’ll visit and pray for them. We are in one community. If we just fold our hands, who is going to take the responsibility? As a church, we must do something - not just by talking, but by action. These kids from the Life Centre are our future generation. If the church doesn’t play it’s role, these kids are going to disappear, and lose their hope and confidence."</image:caption>

Many of these pastors have been around for years, but there was a need to challenge them in the way that they support both Sakubva and Chinyausunzi Community Based Organisations (CBO). Farai and the team brought the pastors from Mutare up to Honde Valley to visit Chinaka Community. They chose Chinaka because the pastors there are very dedicated to the work, constantly supporting the Care Workers in their spiritual growth. ⠀⠀⠀ The Sakubva pastors were able to hear about God’s heart for the vulnerable children as well as hear from the Chinaka pastors about their involvement in the CBO. The Sakubva pastors shared that they felt convicted because they were not doing their best to support the children. They committed to being more intentional in the work that is happening in Sakubva and Chinyausunzi.”#LocalChurch</image:caption>

Her children had either passed away or left; leaving their children with their ageing grandmother. In total, she looks after seven grandchildren and two other children in a concrete house that is too small to support the family. Her only source of income comes from collecting recyclable plastics on the streets of Mutare and receiving only $1 USD for a 90kg (200lb) bag. The situation is challenging but praise God for the Sakubva Community Based Organisation where her grandchildren receive one balanced meal per day.” Please #pray for this grandmother and the many like her that are struggling to provide for their grandchildren. Pray that God will provide; bringing them peace and comfort. #ServingTheMostVulnerable #HolyHomeVisit</image:caption>

Only a year earlier, Elizabeth’s mother became very sick and sadly passed away, leaving the family heartbroken and overcome by poverty. Attending the Care Point has given Elizabeth a place to belong and spend time with other children. Elizabeth feels safe to express her sadness about losing her mother with the Care Workers, and they support her in any way they can. Please pray for Elizabeth as she continues to heal and mourn the loss of her mother. - Temitope Community, Nigeria</image:caption>

We did a Holy Home Visit at her home and told her about the ‘Jesus We Know’ and also what God wants us to do for the orphans and the most vulnerable children in our community. After hearing about the vision, she decided to join as a Care Worker. And since she joined, she has not regretted it because God is always making a way for her. She is always happy when she is playing with the children and when they are close to her. The children are happy when they see her, and that makes her happy. She sees the Care Point as her home. She loves caring for the children.”</image:caption>

She has referred to the story of Elijah and his servant in the Bible, and how God sees her. When the local Hands at Work team in Lagos, Nigeria, saw her struggles, they came alongside her and helped her start a small business to help her provide for her family. That is her praise point. God sees her in her struggles, and God has raised up people to come and who are for her.” – Xolani Makwakwa, Hands at Work Leader. Famitoh is one of our Care Workers in Temitope Community in Nigeria.

When it rains, the tides flood areas where people live, forcing them to get up from where they sleep to keep out of the water. Early in 2020, the small wooden shack where five-year-old Maris* and his family lived collapsed and so they squatted in an empty home.

Mercy, the coordinator of the Temitope Community Based Organisation, found Excel while doing Holy Home Visits. She quickly realised that Excel, along with his siblings, were amongst the most vulnerable living in Temitope. With no one to help him, he would often run through the community, seemingly alone in a world without food or comfort. When his father died, life became even more difficult for his mother, who spends her days selling fish. Mercy invited Excel and his brother to the Care Point. Excel’s mother knows that her children are in a secure and loving environment that is out of harm’s way and is relieved that she no longer has to carry her burdens alone.</image:caption>

Her stomach was protruding and she struggled to walk because her small legs could barely carry her body. Upon following her home, they realised that she was living with people who weren’t her own family as her mother had passed away and her father was unable to care for Ruth. Immediately, Toyin, member of the local Hands at Work team in Lagos and Jackie, African Leader (#Kenya), invited Ruth to the Temitope Care Point where she could be holistically cared for by local #CareWorkers, with support from the local Hands at Work team in Lagos. As Ruth was loved and cared for, her body started healing and growing stronger. It is only from the Christ-like love and support of the Care Workers that Ruth is a healthy and strong six-year-old today. #ServingTheMostVulnerable</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Meet Orianna* Four-year-old Orianna is a gentle, jovial and attentive girl who enjoys being read to and playing with the other children at the Temitope Care Point. It is here at the Care Point where she feels most safe and is taught basic kindergarten skills. She loves learning numbers. Although she is young, she has dreams of being a teacher one day. Orianna was identified as one of the most vulnerable children in the community when she was found by the Care Workers from the Temitope Community Based Organisation (CBO) walking along the road alone. They recognised that this was an incredibly vulnerable and dangerous position for a young girl, so they walked with her to her home. At home, they were greeted by her family and learned their story.   Orianna lives with her parents and older siblings in a small, one-roomed home. Her mother sells fish at the local market in an effort to feed her family, however the profit that she earns is not enough to adequately provide for the family. Orianna’s father used to have employment, but due to economic challenges in the area, he is unable to find work; leaving the family to survive on a very small income. The surrounding ocean bay floods the community of Temitope at high tide each day, leaving residual water stagnating around homes resulting in a high mosquito population and increased malaria contraction. Orianna’s family home is not exempt from this and their home regularly floods when it rains, adding another layer of vulnerability.   In 2017, Orianna and her older brothers were brought to the Temitope Care Point where they receive a hot and nutritious meal daily, access to basic education and health care. Orianna and her family are visited on a regular basis by her Care Worker, Mercy who brings support, encouragement and a Christ-like love to the family. Due to the dedication and commitment of the Care Workers, Orianna and her brothers are being cared for and supported which helps her parents who struggle to make ends meet.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Meet Katrina*. Katrina is no stranger to the challenges many children in her community face. In her four short years of life, she knows loss, hunger, rejection, and sickness. It is young lives like Katrina’s that motivate Care Workers in Temitope Community to keep following Christ’s call to care for the most vulnerable. Mr. Alet, a local volunteer Care Worker, together with Toyin from the Hands at Work local office, first met Katrina while they did visits in the community. Toyin and Mr. Alet knew she was one of the most vulnerable – not just from her story, but by her appearance. Katrina has lived through the abandonment of her own father, and tragically, her mother died while giving birth to her, which set baby Katrina on a path of illness. Katrina is often sick, and is quite small for her age. But thankfully, Katrina was not left on her own; her aunt took her in and began caring for her. Though she does all she can to care emotionally for Katrina, she is unable to provide for all Katrina’s physical needs. Mr. Alet recently began caring for Katrina, and when she first started coming to the Care Point she was very weak and required much assistance. But, God has sustained and greatly improved her health through Mr. Alet and the other Care Workers. In just six weeks of attending the Care Point, Katrina is already looking physically much healthier! The Care Point is quickly becoming a place of refuge for Katrina. She sees Care Workers as people to feed her and care for her health, and the Care Point as an opportunity to build friendships with other children. Through the Christ-like love and compassion of Care Workers like Mr. Alet, Katrina is daily being given a sense of belonging and great hope.</image:caption>

Today, we want you to meet Barbra from the Chinyausunzi Community in Zimbabwe. “My name is Barbra. I am married with four children. I have been a Care Worker for 12 years. I volunteered to be a Care Worker after the vision was shared at my church. I have a passion for children, especially orphans because I grew up as an orphan as well.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK When Care Workers in Chinyausunzi Community, Zimbabwe met Paul* and his family, it was clear they were amongst the most vulnerable in their community. Paul’s mother does odd jobs but these are hard to come by and, often unable to find work, she struggles to provide even the most basic necessities for Paul and his younger brother, let alone have the funds needed for rent and school fees. Attending the Care Point is an answer to prayer as it eases the burden that Paul’s mother carries in providing for her children. Yet the care extends beyond their physical needs. Regularly, the family is visited in their home by Care Workers, who bring encouragement and spend time praying and reading the Bible with them.</image:caption>

In 2012, Hands at Work began working with the Care Workers from the Sakubva Community Based Organisation (CBO) to serve the most vulnerable children. Due to the extent of the need, the Care Workers were walking long distances to visit the children in Chinyausunzi Community. In 2015, the Mutare Local Office team and members of the South African Regional Support Team began walking in the community to assess the need and find a suitable location to support the children out of. Volunteers from Hands at Work were walking in Chinyausunzi when they met Pastor Sunday from the local Christian Marching Church who had a good relationship with one of the pastors on the Sakubva CBO Board. Pastor Sunday felt compelled to help Hands at Work start caring for the most vulnerable children in his community by giving the Chinyausunzi CBO land to use for the Care Point. Today the Care Workers from the CBO are caring for 75 of the most vulnerable children in their community.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Day 14 – Local Volunteer Care Workers Ask God to bring encouragement, strength and hope to the local volunteer Care Workers who have dedicated their lives to serving and caring for the most vulnerable. Pray for the Care Workers to be unified in Christ Jesus as they live out the biblical mandate to seek out the lost, the broken and the destitute. Ask God for more men and woman to recognise their calling to care for the most vulnerable within their own communities. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be a servant, and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.  – Mark 10:43 - 45 Meet Privilege, a local volunteer Care Workers from the community of Chinyausunzi in Zimbabwe: Privilege has faced the reality of caring for her three children and one nephew alone, since her husband passed away and her brother left his child under her care. She is unable to find work and has no means of providing for her family. Seeing their vulnerability, volunteers from the Chinyaunsunzi Community Based Organisation (CBO) invited the children to come to the Care Point. As the Care Workers started visiting Privilege and her children, bringing the love and hope of Christ, Privilege began to gain a deeper understanding of the work that the Care Workers were doing and knew that she wanted to be a part of it. Despite her family’s unpredictable living situation and the struggle that they face to survive, Privilege has a heart of compassion to care for the other children in her community who are suffering. She became a Care Worker because of the example that was set by the other Care Workers when they loved and cared for her family. “I know that at times the family has struggled to have food in their house and needed to borrow from the Care Workers. Yet by God’s grace, she is a Care Worker who loves engaging with the children at the Care Point and playing with them in the dirt and dust.”  – Tyler Ralph, International Volunteer (Canada) #40Days2018</image:caption>

Many of these pastors have been around for years, but there was a need to challenge them in the way that they support both Sakubva and Chinyausunzi Community Based Organisations (CBO). Farai and the team brought the pastors from Mutare up to Honde Valley to visit Chinaka Community. They chose Chinaka because the pastors there are very dedicated to the work, constantly supporting the Care Workers in their spiritual growth. ⠀⠀⠀ The Sakubva pastors were able to hear about God’s heart for the vulnerable children as well as hear from the Chinaka pastors about their involvement in the CBO. The Sakubva pastors shared that they felt convicted because they were not doing their best to support the children. They committed to being more intentional in the work that is happening in Sakubva and Chinyausunzi.”#LocalChurch</image:caption>

Ask God to move in their hearts and for His promises to be deeply rooted in their lives, so that others may be brought to Christ through them.#40Days2017. In Kamakonde Community, Zambia, Hands at Work has made a connection with Pastor Joseph, a Pentecostal church leader in his community. As we have walked with him in Kamakonde and participated in the area of Holy Home Visits together, we have built a strong relationship with him. In April of 2016, Blessings Sambo met with Pastor Joseph’s key leadership team and shared the vision of Hands at Work. The leadership really caught and embraced the vision of caring for orphans and vulnerable children. They are standing together as a strong voice in this to the church alongside Pastor Joseph. Pastor Joseph invited Hands at Work leaders to speak to his entire congregation about how they can be part of caring for their community. Blessings Sambo and Royie Nazombe, (Local Office coordinator, Dedza – Malawi) who are gifted in mobilising church leaders, shared with them. The response of the broader congregation from this time was so encouraging. A number of people from the congregation expressed a desire to join the Community Based Organisation in Kamakonde as volunteer Care Workers, including two trained teachers. It is hoped that these teachers could be involved in the re-launch of the Kamakonde Community School in 2017.    </image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM “I became a Care Worker because when I lost my parents at a young age, my auntie needed to care for me, and I saw that it was good for me, so I wanted to be a mother and care for other children. Also, Hands at Work is helping me care for my three disabled children and so I wanted to help back. I enjoy playing, singing and dancing with the children. As a Care Worker, I not only care for the children, but I also get cared for.” – Zodwa is a Care Worker in Msengeni B Community, Eswatini.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Msengeni B Community, #Swaziland. In 2017, local volunteer #CareWorker, Maria, met nine-year-old Mbuso's* family and clearly saw the challenges that they faced. Maria knew exactly what was needed to be done and so she invited the children to come to the Msengeni B Care Point daily, where they could receive a hot and nutritious meal and support with their education and basic health care. The care Maria gave them was truly life-changing! Now in school, Mbuso loves his grade 3 class and has a hard time picking his favourite subject! Mbuso is thriving at the Care Point. Being generously welcomed into a beautiful community of loving and committed Care Workers has benefited not only Mbuso, but his entire family. #CaringForTheMostVunerable</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  When he was just a young boy, both of Mthobisi’s* parents died, and he was taken, along with his three brothers, to live with his grandparents in the community of Msengeni. Life was very difficult for them as neither of his grandparents had a way to make money. They were struggling to provide enough food for the family and send all the boys to school. Although primary school fees are covered by the government in Swaziland, children must have a proper school uniform and school shoes. Unfortunately, these simple items were far out of reach for this family to afford and Mthobisi and his brothers missed out on schooling for an extended period of time. The Msengeni B Care Workers saw the desperation in Mthobisi; not having enough food to keep him from being consistently hungry, and the vulnerability he faced by missing out on his education. They knew they had to do something to help. They welcomed Mthobisi to the daily Care Point in the community with loving arms, where he immediately began receiving a hot meal every day. In addition, they were able to provide Mthobisi with a school uniform and shoes to continue his education. One particular Care Worker, Sthembile, fought hard for this family and wanted to help even further. Through her hard work, she was able to provide the family with seeds and fertilizer for their crop, and assisted them in ploughing their small piece of land. This was a huge encouragement for Mthobisi’s grandparents and they are looking forward to having a good harvest, thanks to the good rains, to provide their family with food to eat. At school, Mthobisi is now in grade 7 and enjoys English, mathematics and social studies. He also loves to play soccer with his friends at the Care Point. It has become a safe place for him here; to play and make new friends. Sthembile continues to be a strong support for Mthobisi and his family, regularly visiting them in their home and sharing about the love of Jesus. Her encouragement and love has made a huge difference in Mthobisi’s life, bringing him closer to Jesus every day. Mthobisi is one of the 50 chidlren from Msengeni B Community in Swaziland who began attending the Care Point in 2017.</image:caption>

A second Care Point in Msengeni Community - known as Msengeni B - started at the beginning of October. This allows the children from the further side of the community to have a Care Point in their own area, limiting the long distances that they have to walk. There are six #CareWorkers serving the children. They have shown great initiative and passion in serving the most vulnerable in their community.</image:caption>

In some cultures, polygamous marriages are not uncommon, and Chiku’s father has two wives. Along with her two siblings, they all live in a one-room house. One day, Chiku appeared at the Care Point in Houtbos in search of help. She was hungry, as she had not eaten for several days, and so when they gave her food, it made her sick. Neli, one of the Care Workers, went to spend time in her home and assess her family’s situation. She could see the vulnerability, and all three children were welcomed to the Care Point. Chiku’s family is grateful for the support they have received. One of the mothers has now become a Care Worker herself.</image:caption>

Since I arrived in Mozambique, I wanted to visit Chigodole Community, which started feeding the most vulnerable children at the beginning of February. When I went the first time, I fell in love with this community. They are caring for 50 children but there are many children in need of care. There are big needs and many of the children do not have proper clothing. It is a tough place but to see the faces of the children and the light in their eyes when they play and sing is amazing. It teaches me about how I want to live. No matter how hard, tough and hopeless the situation is, these children do not stop laughing.” Vicky Volker, International Volunteer (Germany), reflects on the past month that she has been in Mozambique.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK “While I was in Mozambique, I had the opportunity to be a part of the expansion into our new community, Chigodole. One of the boys that I met, Patrick*, comes from a family with six siblings. His mother lives with them but she has a mental disability. He has two older brothers who are out looking for work to help support the family. One of the younger boys was wearing a skirt because the family had no other clothes. I pushed to visit his home because I saw the wound on his hand which had lots of bugs and dirt in it. I helped to clean the wound and show his mother the easiest way to keep it clean. It was unbelievably tragic because even after he had been cleaned up, the clothes that he was wearing were soiled and dirty.” Jackie Okinda (African Volunteer, #Kenya) reflects on a home that she visited while she was in Mozambique for three months, encouraging and supporting the Hands at Work local office team in Chimoio. Patrick is 1 of 53 children attending the Chigodole Care Point where he receives a hot and nutritious meal daily. Since he started coming to the Care Point, he received a new set of clothes. Pray for a continued transformation in his life as he is loved and cared for by the local volunteer Care Workers.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Cyclone Idai caused widespread food insecurity, with families losing their entire crop harvest. In response, Hands at Work mobilised communities like Matsinho in Mozambique – the hardest hit – to establish community gardens with fast-growing crops. In a time of mass chaos with many people feeling paralysed by the enormity of the destruction, this community garden provided a source of hope! A community meeting was called for Hands at Work to cast the vision to local people, and land was offered by a local church leader. A written agreement was drafted and put into place which specified the terms of the garden, including expectations of input and how the harvest would be divided. Since the garden in Matsinho Community was planted, two successful bean crops have been harvested and apportioned accordingly. With remaining funds from the garden in Matsinho, two additional gardens were also planted in the communities of Chigodole and Macadeira, in Mozambique. Potatoes and cabbages were successfully planted and harvested in Chigodole, and in Macadeira, potatoes and green vegetables were planted. These gardens provided the local Care Workers, Primary Care Givers, church leaders and children with the means for nutritious food to help combat serious food insecurity. An encouraging consequence was also an increased sense of unity built up amongst local people in the hardest-hit regions; people working together, despite their loss, to create a means of survival for their future.</image:caption>

Today, this is still very much the truth in Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo. Where Hands at Work is working in the communities of Buhimba and Luhonga, one of the biggest delights in my life is watching these little children come to the Care Point where it seems like the moment they walk through the entrance, a burden falls of their shoulders. They are free, welcomed, can rest and are known. For the short time that they are at the Care Point, they feel valued, loved and cared for.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Buhimba Community, Democratic Republic of Congo. When Vince’s* father became ill, the family sold their land and all their possessions in a desperate attempt to provide the medical intervention and care he needed. But tragically, when Vince was just two years old, his father passed away. This left his mother, Natasha*, alone in caring for nine young children. Seeking some support to raise Vince and his siblings, Natasha moved her family in with her mother-in-law. But this did little to ease the heavy burden resting upon her shoulders as she worked her on a family plot of land and then selling vegetables at the market, or searching desperately for odd jobs in the community. Unfortunately, this did not earn her enough to feed her children or provide for basic needs in the family. When Vince turned six, Natasha did not have the funds for him to start attending school. When local volunteer Care Workers began caring for children in the community of Buhimba, outside of Goma, Vince and his siblings where one of the first families identified as amongst the most vulnerable. Care Workers invited them to attend the Buhimba Care Point where the priority was to give them daily nutritious food, the first step in addressing their malnutrition. The children also receive support with their basic health care and were able to start attending school. Care Workers Honorine and Bernadette began to visit Vince, his siblings and his mother, Natasha in their home. Over the years, they have built a strong relationship with the family and Natasha looks forward to their regular visits. Through these, she knows that she is not alone in caring for her children anymore.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM The community of Luhonga is a rural village approximately two hours outside Goma in mineral-rich Masisi territory in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Luhonga is, in essence, an informal refugee camp. Hands at Work is caring for 70 children in the village of Luhonga, though there are still many children in this area who are in desperate need of support. Please pray: When people get sick with illnesses like Malaria it is difficult to have access to a clinic as the nearest clinic is about a two hour walk away and the road is difficult to walk and unsafe. Pray for medical treatment to become available. Thankfully, Joseph, one of our teachers in the school, has a bicycle and when our children are sick and in need of medical attention he cycles our children to the clinic. Pray for the safety of Joseph and the children as he cycles them to the clinic. Pray that our children will receive the medical care that they so desperately need.

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Amokoko Community, Nigeria – 10-year-old Daniel* stays with his grandmother and is often found wandering the community aimlessly, not attending school. His grandmother is not able to care well for Daniel or teach him how to care for himself. Daniel has been invited to the Care Point, where he is taken care of and has a safe place to make friends and learn about God.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Amokoko Community - June 11, 2019</image:title>
      <image:caption>FACEBOOK The Amokoko Care Point is for the youth who have graduated from the Eagles Wings Community School in Nigeria, and are now attending secondary school, and for other youth in the community who have never attended school. Busie Siyata-Jones, African Volunteer (South Africa) shares: “Looking at the children, it’s easy to distinguish who attends school and who doesn’t. Our fear was that the children who don’t attend school would feel out of place but that isn’t the case. Instead, those children are arriving at the Care Point early and helping to take responsibility. We long for our children to be healed, whole, feel loved, have a sense of belonging and grow in their character and understanding of Jesus. Amokoko is an answer to prayer." Please pray for the youth attending the Care Point to be unified, whether they attend school or not. Pray that they will come to know the unconditional love of their Heavenly Father and for the Amokoko Care Point to be a place of love and safety.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM At the beginning of October 50 of the most vulnerable adolescents in the community of Amakoko, #Nigeria, began receiving a hot and nutritious meal, access to education and basic health care from the hands of loving volunteer Care Workers. Please pray for the Amakoko Care Point to be a place of safety and love, where the most vulnerable children can come knowing that they are deeply loved and cared for, not only by their Care Workers but by their Heavenly Father!</image:caption>

Hearing the deep concern for the state of our children’s health and hygiene, both now and what is anticipated to only increase in the future, the clinic sent a doctor, a nurse and a nutritionist to visit each family being served by Hands at Work in #Mozambique.</image:caption>

In Nigeria, even amidst the lockdown in Lagos, local volunteer Care Workers did their best to visit children in their homes. This week we praise God that transport restrictions have been lifted. This has enabled our Local Team to return to the communities and support the Care Workers by encouraging them in person. It also means they are able to visit children, like this family from Ilaje in Lagos, in their homes, supporting them spiritually and physically and ensuring they have access to their daily meal.

Each day children come here in small groups to receive what is often their only meal that day. He arrived at the Care Point early and used the materials he could find to create small benches, metres apart, so that the other children could sit down at a safe distance whilst eating their meal. Joseph is known for being creative and willing to serve in any way that he can, to support the Care Workers who have made the Care Point a place where he feels valued and appreciated. Join us in continuing to pray for the most vulnerable families and for children, like Joseph, who responsibly and creatively take action in caring for their communities.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>As children grow up and start going to school, they begin to experience peer pressure and become more aware of the unique challenges that their daily life brings. In these years, they learn how to behave, how to treat one another and learn what is healthy and what is dangerous. What is key for children at this stage is to provide Godly role models who can be a positive influence in their lives.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK In 2019, Justin’s* home life became extremely difficult when his father, who provided the family’s only source of income, went blind. Justin’s mother dedicated herself to caring for her husband, leaving Justin and his three siblings to carry more responsibility for themselves. Additionally, Justin’s father was in the middle of rebuilding the family home when he went blind and was unable to finish. This left the family living in a half-built mud and thatch shelter – the walls and thatch weakening with every heavy rainfall. It was whilst living in this state that Justin and his family met local Care Worker Richard, who could clearly see the family’s physical and emotional vulnerability. The children were invited to the Care Point, releasing them from the burden of not knowing where their next meal would come from or who they could turn to for support with their education and health care needs. Understanding the dangers of living in their current shelter, the Care Workers, together with the local Hands at Work team in Kabwe, helped to finish building the safe and secure home that Justin’s father had started. - Baraka Community, Zambia</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Day 17 – Food Insecurity Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him God the Father has placed his seal of approval.” – John 6:27 Food security remains a serious issue in many of the most vulnerable communities that Hands at Work serves. The local Hands at Work teams are committed to providing a nutritious meal daily for the most vulnerable children. Ask God to give the wisdom, discernment and resources needed to be able to effectively provide this care. For the past three years the Kabwe region of Zambia has faced severe drought, which has had serious implications on individuals’ abilities to plant their fields and yield a harvest. Recognising the desperation of people living in our communities, particularly in Balaka, the Zambian Regional Support Team knew they needed to respond. With the realisation that many people were going without food and faced an additional level of vulnerability, they identified all of the Care Workers and Primary Caregivers in need of extra support and Hands at Work committed to supporting each family with one 25kg bag of maize per month for three consecutive months. This will help to ease the most vulnerable families’ level of food insecurity until their crops are ready to be harvested.</image:caption>

It was amazing to see how many of the same Care Workers were still faithfully serving the children there. Two of the Care Workers, Agnes and Justin, took Ruby and I to visit a grandmother who does all she can to support five small children. Life is tough for the family but she still looks to God as her Father and provider.” - Alicia Ralph, International Volunteer (Canada)</image:caption>

In 2016, local Care Workers identified them as amongst the most vulnerable in their community and began visiting them in their home. The girls were malnourished and their grandmother was struggling to care for their needs. The girls began to attend the Care Point, but struggled to interact with the other children.

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Regularly, we're going to be introducing one of our Care Workers from across Africa. Today we want you to meet Beatrice from Chilipamushi in Zambia. “My name is Beatrice and I have seven children. All of my children attend the Care Point except the eldest, who comes to help. In December 2022, I became a Care Worker. I wanted to be a Care Worker because I was experiencing a hard time in my marriage and my husband died. I was very lonely and I didn’t know how to feed the family. When people started to do Holy Home Visits with me, I began to feel encouraged. I became a Care Worker so I could have fellowship with others and help others as I was helped. I likes looking after and playing with the children at the Care Point. Especially I like to encourage the children who are sad or look lost and lonely because she knows what they feel. I really like to talk to them and make them laugh.”</image:caption>

She would have liked to become a doctor but realizes this is becoming increasingly unlikely having missed so much schooling. Thankfully, the Care Workers are supporting Dorcus closely and teaching her essential life skills which help her to continue to support her family whilst developing her own potential.</image:caption>

They started by identifying the most vulnerable children through Holy Home Visits, mobilising Care Workers and sharing the vision of Hands at Work with them, as well as local church and community leaders. Please pray for each person involved to continue growing in their understanding of what it means to serve the most vulnerable.

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Thirteen-year-old Ana* lives with her mother Beatrice. Her father left them when she was just one year old. She has six older siblings, many of them married with children of their own. Ana and Beatrice lived an unstable life until they met Care Workers from Mutaba CBO in 2016. Ana was malnourished and in desperate need of medical attention, and Beatrice was struggling with her own pain and brokenness. Over time, the Care Workers built a relationship with them. Ana and Beatrice’s physical and emotional wounds began to heal with the faithful love and care they received. Beatrice was so thankful for the way the Care Workers supported her in her darkest moments, that she became a Care Worker herself. Life is still a struggle and food is often scarce, but Ana has stability, she knows she has a place where she belongs and a heavenly Father who loves her.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM When Hands at Work leaders began visiting Seville B for the first time, they didn’t know where to go and were simply following the lead of the Holy Spirit. They didn’t go with plans of building a Care Point but of hearing from God. They were able to speak with the Induna (local community leader) about whether this was the right place and, hearing from him, knew that God had led them to the right place.

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK “The family was surprised that we were willing to come and see, and to stay with them. The roof leaked and the floor was wet. They tried hard to accommodate us but we said that it doesn’t matter, we are here for you. People even came by to ask why we would stay there. They thought that it wasn’t a good enough place and they looked down on the family. But what a blessing it was to be with this family, and what a relationship we have begun.” - Audres, Hands at Work leader (South Africa), reflects on staying with a family in the new community of Manyeleti in South Africa</image:caption>

The Care Workers, particularly Badista, have faithfully supported Winfrida’s grandmother as she cares for her grandchildren. Winfrida is a part of the Under 5s Programme, where she is a ray of sunshine! She is loved, bathed, and fed, and as much as a blessing the Life Centre is to her, she is a blessing in return. - Zimba A Community, Zambia</image:caption>

I have seen God’s care of me through the way that Hands at Work has supported me over the years. I know that God loves me because different people have visited and told me that God is with me and in my corner. Even through all the challenges, God was always with me. Now I help at the Care Point to give back to my community.” #OurJourney #MyLife #HisStory #Celebrating20Years</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Recognising that a significant amount of a child’s development happens between the ages of zero to five, Hands at Work is keen to maximise the time that children spend at the Care Point with the Care Workers. Instead of simply coming to the Care Point for lunch, the children will come in the morning for breakfast, and then after have a safe place to play, have naps and learn basic skills while their older siblings are in school. Pictured here are children under the age of five gathering at the Care Point in Zimba Community, Zambia.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM K Block Community, #Zambia. Ten-year-old Philip* lives with his five siblings and step-siblings. Philip’s mother, Martha*, is a very broken woman, wounded from many years of neglect and abuse. Martha seeks comfort in many relationships with men, which often leaves her children alone for long periods of time. Four years ago, Jennifer, a dedicated local volunteer Care Worker from K-Block community, heard of the children’s story and visited them in their home. Finding the children malnourished and unsure of where their next meal would come from, Jennifer knew she needed to intervene and care for these children. Philip’s oldest brother has recently married and, although the couple are young, they are also dedicated to caring for Philip and his siblings.</image:caption>

However, he is in great need of positive role models around him. At Kafubu Community Based Organisation, there is a strong understanding of God’s care, and this compassionate love is demonstrated by the Care Workers. One particular Care Worker takes Jubilee with her when she attends church and encourages him to play with her children. These children have a stabilising influence on Jubilee and are good behavioural role models for him.</image:caption>

The time that we had with the pastors was incredibly humbling as I was teaching older pastors who have persevered through many trials. I was reminded of the need for one another in the body as Christ as I have much to learn from others who understand suffering for Jesus’ name. I was encouraged to hear their desire to be more involved in what is happening in the community and to grow in what God is doing. As I return home, I hope to take what I have seen in Africa and challenge our church leaders to become more involved in what God is doing around the world.” Joey Chen is a pastor from Sunset Church in the US, who came to Zambia for the first time, alongside Abe Lee, an elder in the church.

      <image:title>UK Fundraising - Payroll Giving</image:title>
      <image:caption>Payroll Giving (also known as Give As You Earn) is a simple and tax-efficient way to support Hands at Work in Africa through your salary. Your donation is taken directly from your pay before tax, meaning your gift costs you less while making a greater impact for vulnerable children and communities in sub-Saharan Africa. For example, a £10 monthly donation will only cost £8 if you are a basic-rate taxpayer, or £6 if you pay higher-rate tax. Payroll Giving is available where employers are registered with a Payroll Giving scheme, and many already are. If you’re unsure, your HR or payroll team can advise.</image:caption>

      <image:title>UK Fundraising - Business Donations</image:title>
      <image:caption>Business donations are a great way for companies to support Hands at Work and make a meaningful and lasting difference. This might be through a one-off donation, or a longer-term partnership funded through a company’s CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) or charitable budget, or involving staff in fundraising. Business donations are often tax-efficient for the company and provide a valuable opportunity to engage employees and demonstrate a commitment to making a positive impact.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Mutoyo Community - October 22, 2022</image:title>
      <image:caption>INSTAGRAM Thirteen-year-old Ana* lives with her mother Beatrice. Her father left them when she was just one year old. She has six older siblings, many of them married with children of their own. Ana and Beatrice lived an unstable life until they met Care Workers from Mutaba CBO in 2016. Ana was malnourished and in desperate need of medical attention, and Beatrice was struggling with her own pain and brokenness. Over time, the Care Workers built a relationship with them. Ana and Beatrice’s physical and emotional wounds began to heal with the faithful love and care they received. Beatrice was so thankful for the way the Care Workers supported her in her darkest moments, that she became a Care Worker herself. Life is still a struggle and food is often scarce, but Ana has stability, she knows she has a place where she belongs and a heavenly Father who loves her.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK Malakota Community, Zambia At the age of 13, Ethel* was set to be married to a much older man. Arrangements were being made by her relatives, but Betty*, Ethel’s grandmother, was very uncomfortable with the plan. She reached out to the Care Workers at the Malakota Community Based Organisation for help. Together with the chief in the community, they intervened on Ethel’s behalf to stop the marriage. The courage that Betty displayed and the trust she had in the Care Workers, is a beautiful example of the Christ-like love and care that the most vulnerable children so desperately need.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FACEBOOK  Clement* looks much better today than when local volunteer Care Workers in Malakota Community first encountered him. Malnourishment had left him sickly and lethargic; he was in very poor health. Under the care of his adult brother, Ivon*, Clement and his three sisters were barely surviving. Ivon relies on selling charcoal to support his younger siblings but has never been able to earn enough in this venture to keep the children fed and in school. When Care Workers saw the effects of hunger on Clement and realised the situation was not going to improve, they knew they must do something to support the family. When Clement was invited to the Community Based Organisation’s (CBO) Care Point, he began to receive, daily meals. The food made a big impact on Clement’s physical health and gave him enough energy to attend school. Norah, Clement’s Care Workers, visits him regularly which assures him that he is cared for and known. It is an encouragement to the whole family when she comes to their home. On one of her recent visits, she learned that Clement had developed malaria. Malaria is treatable if the appropriate medical attention is available. The brand new clinic in Malakota should have made the solution simple for Clement but when the clinic ran out of malaria medication, suddenly things became serious. Again, Care Workers intervened to save Clement’s life. Joyce, another of the Care Workers who serves in Malakota, travelled on her bicycle over 80km round trip to the town of Kabwe to buy the much-needed medication. Thank God for Joyce! Join us in praying for Care Workers like Joyce and Norah who have gone to great lengths to bring hope and life to children like Clement. May God continue to give them strength and perseverance to reach out to children and families in need.</image:caption>
