Crianças do Rei - October Newsletter 2016

I needed to produce a fitting logo for the new school -  During a time of prayer I had a strong impression about Aslan from Narnia and thought what a wonderful way to show the children who Jesus really is.


Peter and Josi’s Crianças do Rei - October Newsletter 2016
Dear Friends,


Thankyou to all of you who have sent help and donations for the new school - Crianças do Rei. We celebrated Children's day party last Saturday which was well attended by families from the Mangrove area.  The school has started functioning this week.

The children come from the neediest areas.

We do need to pay salaries to teachers and carers  - at the moment we have salaries to take care of which amounts to about 500 reais each.   A lot of the building and maintenance work I have been taking care of myself and sometimes have paid help with building work.


Running costs for Crianças do Rei per month will be at least 650 UK pounds per month. Rent, salaries, energy, and food for children’s lunch and lunch breaks. Please pray - If anyone would like to partner with us also churches interested - please contact us.


For those interested in sponsoring a child.


Donors can sponsor a child with us for 25 UK pounds a month. - that is for one horario = 4 hours.  Can be for the school period or the after school program.
Donors sponsor a child all day @ 50 UK pounds a month  = 10 hours including lunch break 11.00 - 13.00.  


A normal school day is 4 hours of classes in Brazil.  Crianças do Rei will have this....but also 4 hours of after school activities, sports, arts etc.


I hope what I have shared is helpful to understand the realities here. If you have any questions or suggestions please ask.


With love from us all here
Peter, Josi and Dorothy
