Looking out for others

Our street

We are renting our new family home in a locality with lots of families with children. The street is private (it has a closed off gate) and there are 51 houses in the street. It's cool because the kids can play on the street and as long as we keep an eye on them, it's relatively safe. We've been able to make friends with most of the kids that live in our street and they enjoy playing with Romi.
There are some kids in our street that have parents that work lots and often they are left alone at home. There's one little guy who's eight years old and spends most of his time home alone. Sometimes he doesn't even eat in the afternoon because there's nobody in his house to prepare his meal.
We really want to help out our little mate Memo so we often ask him over to our house to eat if he hasn't eaten and make sure he's okay.

In the school holidays, God has put it in Sandy's heart to run a holiday program here our garden for the kids, giving them activities during the holidays and sharing with them a message of hope in Jesus Christ. Sandy used to work as a preschool teacher as well as being a mum so she's well equipped to share with these kids.

Please pray for Memo and pray for our plans to reach out to those amongst whom God has placed us. We are building relationships with several families here and we pray that as a family, God's light would shine through us to every house in our street.
