Love, tears and friendship
forevermore – Kasisi says bye to British Airways
Polish PM’s Visit
A walk around Kasisi before Christmas

“British Airways! We love you!” |
|
On behalf of
all the Sisters and children of Kasisi Children’s Home, I
would like to thank all our friends from British Airways for
their great love and support during the past years. The news
about the airline’s decision to stop flying to Lusaka was
and still is a great shock for all of us.
We are very grateful to all of you who made it possible for
us to give our children all they needed: milk, medicines,
clothes, school materials and many other things which other
children enjoy in a normal family environment.
It will be very difficult to live without your help. May God
bless you and reward you for everything you have done for us
here at Kasisi. I am sure that for many more months to
come my children will still look into the sky and seeing the
airplane they will still happily shout: “British Airways! We
love you!”
With love, prayer and deep gratitude.
s. Mariola
Postscript
from Webmaster: And I will surely miss the chauffeur duties.
Loved ferrying you guys, when commanded to by you know who. |

New
Medical Wing |
New Medical Wing Opens
Our new medical wing housed in the House of Hope has been
opened. The house has been renovated and equipped by Szymon
Holownia from Poland. We are very grateful for his care and
commitment.
Art Project
We have started a new project which is called Kasisi Art and
Souvenir Centre. We make small gifts and print T-shirts with
Kasisi logo which we later sell together with the paintings
mad by the children to our visitors. In this way we are
trying to raise the money for school fees for our children.

The Todd
Family |
Goodbye Alf
We were very sad to say goodbye to our wonderful friend Mr.
Alf Todd who worked for British Airways here in Lusaka. For
many years he was always there for us to help us in many
different ways.
He was our Guardian Angel whenever we had
problems and in his usual quiet way he was able to see our
needs before we even spoke about them. His daughter Jenna
made this beautiful cake
for us and together with her Mom she carried it all the way
from England!
We
wish this beautiful family many blessings from God and we
hope to see them one day again.

Reflections from the Webmaster
-
Where angels walk among us
A reminiscence on Kasisi Children’s Home. "Often
it is said, home is where when you go, you are welcome. But
Kasisi has taught me differently. For Kasisi, home is where when
you go, you belong. " |

With God’s grace anything
is possible - by Natalia
"My
father did bring me to Kasisi and has never come to see me on any single day. I know
the pain that fatherlessness brings in a child’s life and I do
also know that the child desperately needs a dad but my life in
Kasisi has enabled me to understand that there are people in
life whose presence I need to recognize."
My life is going to be
successful - by Alick
"People whom I
asked for money would tell me to go to Kasisi
Children’s Home. I had no knowledge of Kasisi hence
I never took what I was told seriously. With time,
things in the streets got worse. My two other fellow
street kids who were brothers decided to give it a
try and see would Kasisi would hold for us. We
started the trip to Kasisi on foot. Even up to today
I still remember how we moved from Lusaka to
Kasisi."
