Letter from Fr Taytor


Lindsay,
Thank you for your Christmas letter and New Year greetings. It was also
very special to have greetings from Malawi Support Group including Bernie &; Barb – my golf is hit and miss!
The Archbishop has asked me to help in building a modern secondary
School for girls (boarding) – a task beyond me but I at least built a wall around the compound of 115 panels of 4 meters each panel. The Archbishop is looking for funds in Europe. I will assist with an initial boarding facility for 50 girls. Please this is not a request.
The main project of school fees for secondary and tertiary students is a
Wonderful effort to assist the very needy students who come to us for help.
We open second term on 8th January and will send you photos and details
(Even of the school wall).
The clinic is running well and I was able to bring a microscope from Ireland
For the laboratory which is very essential.
The solar lamp project for students is a great idea.
We often go 24 hours now without electricity, so to provide each student with a solar lamp which also has a charger for phones – where they can make a little pocket money.
An initial supply of 40 or 50 lamps would be a real blessing. A solar lamp with a charger built in is about $7.00 but may supply it cheaper when it is for the poor students. I Have one for testing at the moment.
I am planning to get solar panels for the house / church as every day we have
power outages.
Thanks again to everyone in the Malawi Support Group for their
Commitment. The remittance can be sent anytime in January.
Kindest Regards
Frank Taylor
