We are preparing our own food stocks as well!

The purchase of a proper amount of corn, an essential food ingredient in Zambia, is a matter of great importance in our schedule and one provided for in the budget.

Currently, the corn is being poured to tighter bags and properly secured against insects. It is supposed to get us through the entire year!

We would like to wish you a lot of hope, love, continuous optimism, serenity and family warmth.

We also wish you kindness and mutual understanding for both your loved ones and strangers.

The young people who study the difficult and beautiful profession of nursing at the Katondwe Mission Hospital spontaneously decided to help an orphaned child from our community in Katondwe. Their empathetic approach to the problem and their genuine concern let them very quickly organise a fundraiser to secure the orphan's vital needs and to purchase a supply of milk for the baby. Once again, they showed that their decisions are guided by a genuine desire to do good and to help those in need.

We are very proud of them!

The past few hours confronted us with the severe power of mother nature at the Katondwe Mission Hospital. Once again, it reminded the Katondwe community about its dangerous and destructive power. Also, we have seen how powerless people are in such moments.

Tropical storms have reached us. Whenever they strike with heavy rains and gusty winds, they bring forth floods and damage to the local infrastructure; they force people to leave their homes and move to safer places.

Today, we send you our warm thoughts from Katondwe and from the bottom of our hearts!

We wish each and every one of you a happy, joyful and loving New Year. May it be full of happy moments and bring peace to your hearts.

The end of the year is a time to sum up all the things we have done with our hands and your support. This is also the time to make plans for the coming months.

Our achievements

The Katondwe Mission Hospital has changed over the course of this year. Our connection to the power grid was an important milestone. Now, we have diversified power sources: the power grid, solar panels and a power generator, so we have electricity around the clock.

Dear Friends!

For Christmas, we wish you a spiritual reunion with the newborn Son of God. May He give you His blessings, joy, and hope and protects you with His divine care in the New Year.

Time runs fast and spares no one. It gives us only a few moments for rest and some deep thought. Moreover, each day is still full of difficulties due to the pandemic. It makes us even more grateful for your being with us. Thank God for you all! We pray for you with all our hearts and offer the Holy Mass up for you every Friday in our hospital chapel.

May God bless you and your loved ones!
