Now they are preparing to graduate and enter the new world of High School education - they are leaving the nest! Thank you for all who support them and other children in the school every month. Your support does not go unnoticed or appreciated.<br />

Thank you, God, that you have once again proved MORE THAN ABLE to supply all our needs in Christ Jesus!<br />
On the 15th of the month, which is our salary day, there was definitely not enough money to even pay half the staff's salaries. I have had to get to the place where I accept I am not God -haha- and this is His business.<br />
I walked into the staff devotions and the worship lifted me almost into heaven. These were men and women who had not received their well-earned and needed money, praising Him with everything they have.<br />
Today, 6 days late, as a result of two very generous donations from unexpected sources, I paid all the salaries in full! God did it again. We are going to mark November 2012 as a landmark in the history of Eagle's Nest so we always look to Him in time of need! knowing He can and will.<br />

I was there at 7:15 am to make sure anything that was needed was in place.<br />
9:45 they had not arrived and I had to leave for an appointment. When I returned, the first container had arrived but they discovered that the builders put the foundations in the wrong place so now we must wait till they correct them.<br />
Here are pictures of the first two at the site. Nhoto Tika was sampling my office space!<br />
Thank you to Makhi Dyani from Spazatainer who is doing a great job and praying he will be able to get this sorted quickly!<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This means we are a quarter of the way towards meeting all our building needs. We have to have a further 4 classrooms by January and also a new ablution block and offices. </span><br />

His behaviour at school has also improved dramatically.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">He has been selected with 5 other children to compete next weekend in the S.A. championships in P.E. He needed to raise a large amount of money and all the children in the school got busy with little projects to help him.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Grade 5 children suggested a non-uniform day with a theme of "Anything Funny". Children paid R5 for the privelege of wearing their own clothes! Together with the other projects - selling cakes; raffling a special cake and collecting small change, the school raised R1225.50. I am so proud of their efforts and their determination to support a fellow student.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here are some of the photos!</span><br />

A classroom sponsored<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We heard this week that an organisation is funding the building of one of our desperately needed classrooms. Thank you so much True South!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is such great news! Also, after the launch of the Build a Future project, we have received one new sponsor of a space!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Are their any more people out there who know of someone who would like to support a worthwhile cause, "sponsor a space" , gain BBEEE points and tax relief. Please direct them to the Eagle's Nest website by giving them this link <a href="http://eagles-nest.org.za/sponsorship/build-a-future">http://eagles-nest.org.za/sponsorship/build-a-future</a></span>Mama Eaglehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07355097625950061022noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7923457753279828050.post-28543995702884038612012-06-27T16:10:00.001+02:002012-06-27T16:10:38.288+02:00Holiday prayers<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Everyone knows how cold and wet the Cape Town winters can be. If you think about it, please pray for the child you sponsor during the holidays, as they will probably be spending a lot of the time cold and wet or in dangerous environments. They need your prayers!</b></span>Mama Eaglehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07355097625950061022noreply@blogger.com0
