After a certain age, it is unusual to have any expectations for a birthday celebration, let alone to include the word “HOT” when mentioning your birthday. But thanks to the generosity and love of my friends, I am pleased to say it was exactly that – a HOT celebration. The kids at our orphanage in Kenscoff will all be enjoying hot showers by the end of the week. We purchased the first solar water heater and it is being installed this week. Once we make sure it is operational we will be purchasing two more!!!! Yes, you heard me right. Thanks to the outpouring of support, we are able to buy three solar water heaters and pay for the plumbing and electrical installation for all of them. One will be used for the kids, one for our laundry facility and one at the guesthouse for our visiting teams (and me!).

Thank you very much for your generosity – this birthday was especially significant and I feel very blessed by the love and support of each of you. Many thanks for making my birthday dreams come true!

Blessings, Kathi
