KINDLE Orphan Outreach Fund Raiser

This is proving to be an Exciting New Year! We are in the process of setting up a fund raising concert for the trip to the KINDLE Orphan Outreach work in Malawi, Africa in February 2008!!! Our concert is being set up with volunteers from at least 4 different churches; Troy Christian Chapel, Orchard Ridge Church of the Nazarene, Woodside Bible Church, and Kensington Church.

It will be held at the Troy Christian Chapel, 400 East Long Lake Road, Troy, MI 48085 on Friday, January 25, 2008 at 7:30pm. Doors open at 7pm. There will be music, singing and other items to purchase to support the trip, such as bookmarks, framed photos, music CD's, and even a bake sale.

The KINDLE Orphan Outreach trip is sponsored by Extreme Response International and is currently assisting 700 orphans in the small country of Malawi, Africa. This is a different kind of orphan work. It is managed by assisting families in surrounding villages in taking in the children with no families. AIDS is a big cause of the explosion in the orphan population and not only are the children helped with food, clothing and education, but with health care as well. This approach is beneficial both in providing an actual family environment for the children, but it is ultimately African people helping African people at its best.

Our trip is beginning the middle of February and the main team will be there for two weeks. I will be staying on and will be there just over 3 months, helping with the installation of the electrical wiring, carpentry, and just like any other mission trip, whatever else comes along. Hopefully, my first aid training in the U.S. Navy will also come in handy.

Enjoy the New Year and come and join us for the concert if you are able! Those who are not able to attend may send donations directly to Extreme Response International to benefit this trip:
