Moms go to school

Little home in Emfeni, Malawi
 
The Sinkhani in Malawi continue to provide a huge ministry to those in need.  Their recent report for April-May indicated they had monitored 5126 babies AND held health classes for over 3416 mothers.  The Sinkhani wisely work in teams of 2 or 3.  While one is weighing the babies another is holding a class for the waiting mothers teaching sanitation, nutrition, and other healthy practices.  They traveled to five villages surrounding Kamsombeni Clinic and seven villages around Kavitowo Clinic recently.  Most of the villagers live in modest grass-thatched homes.  According to the Sinkhani, many of the women knew little about helping themselves.  Now they are giving thanks and sharing their testimony with other people about how helpful the Sinkhani have been teaching them about balanced diets, clean drinking water and AIDS prevention.  As our Sinkhani reporter, Edina Kumwenda said, "The life will be better now because they know many things about good health."
