Christmas in Sierra Leone
Our communities of children in Sierra Leone were delighted to receive their shoe bags on Christmas Day.
Especially excited were the children at our new church in Kamakontakay, who had never seen a shoe bag before - let alone receive one!
The shoe bags contain treats and toys donated and packed by members of our Connexion churches in the UK. These gifts are an extra special gift for our Sierra Leone children, whose families live hand to mouth and are unable to afford toys and treats.
Bethesda
On Christmas Eve the children from our orphanage in Bethesda had fun day trip to Bureh Town beach. They were invited to the beach by the charity, Home Leone, who very kindly covered the cost of the outing.
On Christmas Day they attended church, where they received their shoe bags, before going on to enjoy a special Christmas lunch of chicken, which was generously funded by Ebley Chapel in Stroud.
