December 2008 Zimpeto Widows' Home Update

Our first widows' home opened in November 2008, through the generosity of Iris Canada donors. We have named the house "Seed of Hope".  Hopefully over the next 6 weeks we will move up to 8 widows and a caregiver into the house, located about 50 metres from our Zimpeto property. The women will work on our farm as well as re-start the chicken project.

These are exciting days - James 1:27 says it all!!! 

"A pure and faultless religion in the sight of God the Father is this: to look after orphans and widows in trouble and to keep oneself untarnished by the world."
