School holiday is over now

Holiday time is over now.
The children had a nice time.
In one of the last weeks they painted a big tree on the wall in the living room and wrote some words around it.

Beside that we did a lot of sports like playing cricket and football.

And now it is time for going back to school in our new school uniforms.

To read more about our personal stories go to the chapter “children in the hostel”.
We are really grateful for this place that we have to live. If you want to give some financial support you can read about it in the chapter “support”.

Gifts from people around us.

Because of school holiday a friend of Babu offered the children a chinese party.
Together we had a nice time with nice food and a lot of fun.

When Ashwini came into our hostel she did not have any clothes or slippers.

Recently somebody bought a lot of clothing and a pair of slippers for her. Look at these pictures, do you recognize her? She has a total new look now!

Many thanks to the person who gave this wonderful present to her and to our Heavenly Father who is always taking care of us.

Shusma is living on the street with her children.

Shusma is 22 years old.
She is living on the streets of Pune with her two daughters, three and one year old.
After a difficult marriage she wants to make a new start in her life.
It is difficult to make this new start, because she needs to find a job for earning money, but who will take care of the children when she works? We are looking now for a place where she can bring those kids during the day. When she finds a job she will have money for renting a place to live and buying food for herself and her children. We ask you to pray for this situation. We hope that soon there will be a solution and a place for her to live, just now when the rain season is coming.

Cleaning work during school holiday

In the part of Pimpri where Bird’s Nest Society is established are 18 old apartment blocks were people are living. Many children are living here in a very unhealthy environment. We talked with people living here and started with our hostel children to clean those 18 appartment blocks. The first one is finished now, so there are 17 more blocks to clean. We do it with pleasure, we want to be a blessing and a helping hand for the people around us.                                                                                                                                                                                                 

After finishing the first block there was an icecream party for the people who helped us.

The end of the schoolyear.

It is April now, the schoolyear in India  will end soon.

On this pictures you see the school where our children are going.

It’s a big building with many class rooms, they even have a big computer room.

Every year the school children have to do an examination, at this moment they are busy with it. All the children in our hostel do their best in school to be a good student. They are happy to go to school and prepare their selves for a better future.

 All the girls on this school have beside their school uniforms braids in their hairs. On the last picture you see Ashwini, the girl who is living in our hostel since some months.
