Pat & Etelvina in the new house

"Dear Friends

Happy Christmas!

It is with great joy and much surprise that I can thank God for the best present this Christmas for the children and families of the Shalom Project in Lima, Peru. Today I received the keys to a two storey property which we only heard was on the market last week. God moved everything so incredibly and it is exacly what we needed. It was built as a school so has lots of classrooms and great facilities, there are some modiciations to do, ramps etc but that can get organised later. Timing was perfect as I leave for the UK next week and can go knowing that all is in hand.

Praise God!

Funds were available to use but we will need to raise the cost of the building and adaptations. The building cost $30,000, about £18,700, adaptations wil be additional. I will be giving out information soon about how you can donate to the Shalom building fund via SAMS UK.

I go to the Uk next week for yet another move with my mother into a warden controlled flat so it is all new homes and new beginnings in 2010.

May God's blessings continue to be a constant presence in our lives as witness to his great love for us.

Feliz Navidad!!!

Love Pat"
