Foster Child

At Trinity two foster children are sponsored. The A.C.W. sponsor a child and Trinity Anglican Church congregation sponsors another. Trinity’s child is a 15 year old boy, Aziphy Phiri, who lives in Zemba Central, an area made up of various communities. Through our support, the Plan provides things like vaccinations, mosquito nets, rehydration fluids and common medications within Aziphy’s community. The brochure is attached to the bulletin board with more information and a picture of Aziphy and his friend.

A.C.W.

The executive of the ACW would like to wish all our members, past and present, a happy, healthy summer break. We are looking forward to your continued prayers and support while we rest up for Fall. For those of you who are blessed with the ability to knit or crochet – remember we would appreciate a finished Prayer Shawl for our September Lunch meeting. May God bless you and keep you in his care.
