Mutondo Church Plant Food Distribution

Today we had the great privilege of taking a food distribution to the Mutondo church plant.  ImpactLives Inc., in partnership with Wooddale Church from MN and Children's Relief International truly blessed these brothers and sisters in Christ.  I wish everyone could have been there who contributed but the best I can do is share the pictures!  Enjoy!

It was a joy to see the smiles on the faces of children.

She is one busy mom....

Children are children the world over.

Notice the swollen belly.  Malnutrition
and/or worms.

The church was so full that this lady
could only look in the window.

These are the houses the people live in at Mutondo.

We cooked up some of the food so they could eat!

The children shared a bowl in groups of four.

The women waited patiently for their share of the packages.

The children are waiting for a bowl of the food.

It is so rare to see an older woman in Moz.
I just had to take her picture.

Edmundo watches from the outside as the church held its
morning worship service.

Young people from the Dondo church helped
with the distribution.

Again, notice the swollen belly of the little guy in brown.

Sometimes the children look too serious.  It doesn't take
long to get them to smile though.

Sharing the food.

Moz women always carry everything
on their heads.

Babies watching babies.

The women put their share of food in their
capalanas and are ready to head home.

We added  8 chickens to the meal.  They did remove
the head before they cooked it!

I have always been fascinated by the way they wash
dishes.  They use dirt as their S.O.S. scrub pad.  It
is not my preferred choice but it works!

Your pictures bring back great memories from our time in Moz. Still can't get over how clean their clothes look---and they do it with no Tide with Bleach!!! God's blessings to all at ROL.
