CHURCH AND COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

The Dutch Reformed Churches that are involved are Bethlehem Môrelig, Parys East, Warden and Vredefort.

They treat the boys with cake and sweets on their birthdays. There are groups who also deliver groceries and parcels during the month. They provide us with groceries once a term.

Some of the church members visit us from time to time. They never come empty handed, and treat the children with something nice to eat. They also help to keep our house in a good condition.

Our house has an intimate, home-loving atmosphere. There is place to play rugby and soccer. The main room in the house is the dinning room were we play games, watch TV and DVD’s.
