“Anyone who welcomes a little child like this on My behalf is welcoming Me."
(Matthew 18:5 NLT)
Because of YOUR support, we welcomed many children into God’s kingdom!
We ministered to 140 children of Wisdom Community School directly. MANY more gathered around our activities and enjoyed the singing, teaching, and games of Camp Wisdom.
Our theme was the person of Jesus.
At the end of the week, the gospel was presented in conjunction with the school’s manager, our colleague in Zambia.
Many children responded to the gospel! Please pray with us that God will confirm in their hearts what they prayed that day.
Besides the amazing work in the hearts of the children, God provided through YOU!
- A completely new classroom building, (three more classrooms), painted, ready to use
- New latrines
- More landscaping
- Classroom posters
- Camp Wisdom T-shirts
- Snacks every day for 140 children
- Puppets
- Craft supplies
- Toothbrushes/toothpaste
- Books
- Rubber band bracelets
Besides the children of Wisdom, highlights of the trip:
- dedicating the new classroom building in memory of Micah Powers and having his mother, Anita, present to see it
- seeing a new team work together in harmony, using the gifting of each person
- watching the “mama’s” give an appreciation dance
- experiencing multifaceted worship in a local church.
January 2012: 160 children Now: 305 children
The growth gives us more opportunities to shows God’s love to more children of Wisdom! And we have more opportunities to develop the school!
To utilize the classrooms, they need at least 45 more desks immediately! The cost is $2, 250. [TO DONATE]
Next year, we need more team members so that we can include all of the children in Camp Wisdom. Make plans now to be a part of our team for June 2015. We welcome adults and high school students accompanied by a parent. Please contact us if you are interested.
Coming soon - a way to sponsor a child or a teacher at Wisdom!

Our love in Christ,
Donna and Ed Edwards
