Muntanga had some great photos on his camera.  His younger sister Luse is still in need of a sponsor.  If you would like to sponsor her, send an e-mail to macandmic@gmail.com

A Letter from Muntanga~ Feb 2011

Muntanga, always concerned about his family.  He is long for a sponsor for his baby sister who is 1 year old.  She attends CHZ's supported preschool.  She is A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E!!  If you would like to sponsor Luse, she is still available for only $9 a month.  Here is her photo:

The Nursery sponsorship program is the most fun, I think, because the little ones get learning toys, learning books, etc.  You can visit the blog here: http://www.childhopezambia.blogspot.com/  If you would like to sponsor Luse, send an e-mail to macandmic@gmail.com

Letter from Muntanga

Here is one of the many letters I received yesterday from my CHILDHOPE-ZAMBIA children.  I was surprised to receive several letters from some of them.  Tebby, for example, sent me 6 letters!!!  Muntanga, whose letter you see above wrote 4 different letters!  I have received a total of 7 letters from him in the 7 months I have sponsored him.  Very sweet!

A Letter from Muntanga

Here is the letter from Muntanga:

Dear Heather,

How are you? How is your family? How is Jaden? Back to me, not so badly. I am okay. My family is also fine. Dear sponsor, I also want to tell you the name of my sisters. I have only 2 sisters. My eldest sister is Memory Mweemba and she is doing grade 8 at Simwaba Basic School. My youngest sister is only 1 year and 4 months old. I hope you like my family. My young sister enjoys playing with the teddy bear you sent me last time.

I have received your gifts and, also, received 2 pictures and a letter. I really liked the picture that Jaden colored for me. I am very happy that you sent me one to color, too. I am happy to have a sponsor that thinks of me.

Please pass my greetings to your daughters Jaden and Morgan and Daddy and Mammy give greetings to you.

Muntanga (written by his mother)

Meet Muntanga- My 4th Grader!

Muntanga can be counted in my group of cattle herders. He is very close in age to Edward. Muntanga and Edward were both born in 2000. Muntanga will be 10 on July 29th, so he will be getting a birthday card soon, too. He lives in Simbwaba with his father, 1 brother and 2 sisters. He loves to play soccer when he doesn't have to watch the cattle. His favorite subjects are English and Math, and he would like to be a teacher when he grows up. I love his eyes! Who could resist those eyes?!
