Mission to Lumbila (in May, 2005)
News of the children :
We
always support the studies of Jacques who has just ended his 6th with good
notes (14 of the average). Thus he(it) crosses(spends) it 5th always in
the course of evening. 40 000 VOCATIONAL TRAINING CENTRES(CFA FRANCS)
(60€) were given to Marie Thérèse for the school year 2005/06 and which
represents the cost of the school, the school stationeries and of the food
aid. I call back that Jacques works during the day: he(it) makes and sells
batiks !
Vincent
should be taken care by a French association to pursue a schooling in BTS
of mechanics.
It was
on Sunday nevertheless the atmosphere was studious. A classroom was
occupied by the biggest in full revision.
Dieudonné crosses his tub. Achille, Emile, Saïdou and Michaël prepare
their BEPC.
The
smallest :
Aboubacar and Oumarou, the twins arrived
premature in November are on form.
Ibrahim goes marvelously and suffers no more
his operation. Fabrice was adopted in February by an Italian family which
lives in Toscane.
Marie-Claire will cross to see him during
her stay in Italy.
The file of Benjamin's adoption (which has a
deformation of feet) is on the right track. He(it) should be adopted by a
French family and can so be operated in France.
Three new babies arrived recently. Mariam -
2 months - From whom the mom died a little time after the childbirth(delivery).
Didier, hardly more than a week. 8th child
of the family, her mom died during the caesarian.
We call
him at the moment a baby Ilboudou because he still has no name. It is an
adulterous baby removed from his mother and thrown back by the father.
All the
children are on form and in spite of the strong hot season no sick during
our stay

modalities of construction of our dining hall, surface of the room
approximately 300 M2, cost estimated(esteemed) near 90 000 euro (see the
plan of the project on the site).
