Lørdagshygge i Kinshasa

I lørdags var børnene igen samlet hos en af vores lokale medlemmer i Kinshasa. For børnene er lørdag blevet en dag, hvor de bliver inviteret ind af nogle voksne mennesker der vil dem og behandler dem godt. I Congos Børn, er vores mål at skab et trygt sted, hvor børnene ikke bare kommer en gang om ugen, men et sted hvor de kan bo, et sted de kan kalde deres hjem. Vi arbejder hårdt på at nå vores mål. Indtil da, der gør vores lokale medlemmer i Kinshasa en kæmpe indsats, for at give børnene noget af den tryghed og omsorg, som livet på gaden ellers ikke byder på meget af.

Det er stort, at blive set som et værdifuldt menneske, at blive accepteret.

Vores medlemmer gør et fantastisk arbejde. Det er tydeligt, at de ikke selv har ret meget, men de giver hvad de kan. Det de kan give er omsorg og kærlighed. Dette koster intet. De har åbent deres hjerter for børn, som ikke har nogen andre i verden at gå til.

Again this Saturday, the children were gathered at the house of one of our local members in Kinshasa. For the children, Saturday has become a day when they are invited in by some adults who wants them there and treat them well. In Congo Børn, our goal is to create a safe place where the children don't just come once a week, but a place where they can live, a place they can call their home. We are working hard to reach our goal. Until then, our local members in Kinshasa are making a huge effort to give the children some of the security and care that life on the streets otherwise doesn't offer much.

It meens a lot to be seen as a valuable person, to be accepted.Our members do a fantastic job. It is clear that they do not have much themselves, but they give what they can. What they can give is care and love. This costs nothing. They have opened their hearts to children who have no one else in the world to go to.
