Besuch vom anderen Ufer des Nils

Besuch vom anderen Ufer des Nils

Am Sonntag hatten wir Besuch von einer Musikgruppe des Alur-Stammes aus dem West Nile Gebiet. Die Jungen spielten die traditionelle Adungu und die Mädchen haben dazu getanzt. Es war ausschliesslich Gospelmusik, die in unseren beiden Gottesdiensten sowohl in der Schule wie auch in der Dorfgemeinde mit Begeisterung aufgenommen wurde. Am Nachmittag wurde dann eifrig mit einigen Schülern unserer Schule geübt. Wir freuen uns jetzt schon auf einen erneuten Besuch dieser temperamentvollen Gruppe. Diese Begegnungen helfen auch immer wieder aufflammende Stammesstreitereien zu unterbinden.

Vision

"Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world."
(Jak. 1:27)

Our current project

With your help, the kitchen and the dormitories could be completed. Thank you so much to everyone who was there for us!

A simple community school is currently needed. Not all children in the surrounding villages can attend our school because the distances are too great and the paths too dangerous. Again and again you can encounter elephants, buffalos or other animals that cross to the Nile to drink water. For this reason we decided to build a primary school with four classrooms in one of the villages so that all children can go to school.

Such a building with four classrooms costs about 12,000 euros. A lot of thanks to a generous donation from Denmark, we were able to credit 3,500 euros. So we are only missing 8,500 euros.

A big thank you to everyone who makes this project possible. You can donate directly here.

Swimming Pool

15.07.2023

The construction of our swimming pool is nearing completion. Here you can see how our workers carry out the final cleaning work. The swimming pool is not only designed to attract more guests to our lodge, it is specifically designed for our students to learn to swim. Almost nobody can swim here and when there are boat accidents on the Nile or one of the many lakes, they usually end fatally.

Success Stories Part 1

In addition to the success that our glowing orange toilets could be built in the community school with your support, we can of course also report on other successes.
