LETTER FROM FR. TAYLOR

Dear Lindsay & Malawi Support Group,

I am promising when I get free I will learn the computer skills!

At this time I was giving a retreat to sisters and nice to get a break from the buildings.

The wall around the church at Ntandire is progressing. The Christians are building it up to 2.5 metres. They finished building a kitchen since they received a gift of ceramic stoves to cut down on the wood used by more than 50%. .The woman of the Church have started a nursery school with over 100 children. They are fed 3 times a week. In 2011 I will build 2 classrooms for babies and high babies. The women take turns to teach and cook on a voluntary basis – fantastic! The school fees project and the funding of the children for both places are going very well.

We have started the new academic year and I have a balance of $500 which will start some of the new students and also pay for the existing ones who haven’t finished. I do have a list of the students and how much they receive. I‘m sure I should send it to you by email sometime. I will recruit someone to help me. We are having a visit from the ‘First Lady’ on the 23rd October, so the women are busy for the festival. Thanks for your letter and photo. Enjoy life while you can. Once again a huge thanks for your support. Kind regards. Francis Taylor
