Summer fun

Splash, splash.......

It's that time of the year the children love - summer !!! They get to go out to swim and can play outside 'till late.




It's amazing that when we bath the smaller children they usually scream their heads off and want to get out the bath as soon as possible but when they go for a swim they are the first to jump in and splash everyone with water and we struggle to get them out!

Birthday party

When we have birthday parties, the birthday child often won't smile or even look at anyone (performance anxiety?)....... We had one recently for this little boy. He was really excited to celebrate his 3rd birthday. One of our volunteers did face painting on the day which the children really love having done.

He received lots of presents.

School christmas concert

Finally, all the hard work has paid off! Three of our children were in a Christmas play last night. They had lots of fun singing all the Christmas songs. Almost all of the Lambano children went to watch the production and were enthralled. They joined in the singing and were copying all the actions - we will be hearing these songs the whole of December!!!!!!!!!!!

Our little angel


















He's taking his role of Joseph very seriously

These are pictures of the newest child to come to Lambano for the Katlehong Township. She is 10 years and 10 kilos. Needless to say, she is very sick and we are hoping to nurse her back to health so that she can return to her family. She highlights why we so urgently need to complete our hospice. There are many like her in the township who need the kind of care she is receiving.

Update: This little girl passed away today (October 28th) at 9:10am. She died peacefully and quickly. Please pray that her family would find comfort at this time. Please pray for her funeral. One of our pastors will be doing the funeral and will share the hope of the gospel with those who come.
