Through members of our congregation we were made aware of the desperate needs and wanted to help those suffering so much in Zimbabwe. So we have "adopted" a church in Bulawayo where members of Lucky's family are pastors. Direct phone links keep our giving focussed on what is really needed and we have a "Shopping List for Hope" which enables us to send regular shipments directly.
