Many of you will remember Aiperi. She is Aigoola's daughter and lived and worked on the farm. She helped with a lot of the Humanitarian Aid . Here is a picture of her with little Billy. Billy's mom died during child birth and he had a hole in his heart and was a failure to thrive baby. The farm was contacted for help, so Aiperi started going to him at least once a month for the first year and brought him good quality formula and helped with the family .
She then moved to Pakistan with her husband. As soon as she got there she started helping people like she had learned on the farm. She has about 30 families of refugees from Afghanistan that she helps with food and school supplies for the kids .
Up until now she and her two boys and husband have been living with her husbands large family. Now they have started building their own home, something that she is very excited about .
when the house is completed we would like to have a house warming celebration for her . There will be lots of items that they will need to set up home .. If you would like to help. I will be sending her some money next week with instructions of what to buy. then I will get her to send us some pictures.
Oh and Billy is still doing great . We got to spend a bit of time with him when we were delivering coal in the fall.
Back inn Kyrgyzstan, the snow continues to fall . and people continue to need more coal .
I am starting to sound like a broken record, but I am so thankful for the ability to continue with these donations .
If there is a bright side to this weather, it will buy us a bit more time to prepare seeds and food hampers to give out.
This weekend I will be in Thunder bay and speaking at Evangel Church on Sunday morning at 11:00 I plan to get there at around 10:00 so I will have time to visit before the service if anyone in the area would like to come see us . After the service I will be heading to the airport and returning home to finish packing for Kyrgyzstan on Wednesday .
