I’ve just come back from a few days in Menorca with Alan and Lyn. On Sunday I was able to give church members an update on our plans for Maternal Care at the Charis health centre in Lira. I mentioned how we are hoping to create a Safe Motherhood programme at a cost of £75 per enrolled woman. This programme will provide at least 4 ante-natal visits, treatments during pregnancy, safe delivery, post-natal care and immunisation for the baby. We hope to ensure the availability of appropriate family planning to all those that want it.
New Life Church has been collecting each week to support our work and I was very pleased to be there in person to receive their latest donation of £500.

It is really wonderful to see that even the small change New Life Church collects each week mounts up into a donation that can change lives.
