Embassy Team leaves for two weeks in October to work in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The team will be working in various areas. Ps Evan will be leading a team training Pastors and their wives both in Goma and in Maniema.
Col Peet will lead a building team to install water recycling in the transitions centres which will provide showers and washing facilities for the patients and doctors at the hospital. Embassy plans to provide resources to complement the current crutches workshop which will enable local carpenters to make adjustable crutches for re-use. This innovation will lessen the waiting time for crutches and allow orthopaedic patients to return home and free up much needed beds.
Malia will be working with the nurses while Matthew’s team will run art, craft and music workshops for the young patients and the students at Ephphatha School for the Deaf.
We need lots of help to make this happen and this month we kick off with our first fundraiser:
Embassy Goes Congoliscious Dinner
At THE DYNASTY RESTAURANT (inside Canterbury Leagues Club at Belmore) on Friday 28th May. 7 for 7.30 pm.
You’ll enjoy a fine dining Chinese Banquet and be entertained by “Charlotte Jane” all for just $100 each. Better still you get to have fun and know your helping HEAL Africa make a real difference in Eastern DR Congo.
For tickets e-mail colpeet@tpg.com.au or call 9550 0440.
Remember, if you can’t attend Embassy Goes Congoliscious Dinner you can still get involved. There’ll be more events in the coming months so keep an eye on the web site for news. You could sponsor one of the team members or make a regular contribution to the projects. http://www.cnecpi.com.au/help_HEAL_Africa

Congo through your commitment to pray.
