VIPs Visits Welcome Center

Karen Writes . . .



In March, Madam Zokoe had the honor of showing the executive director of GBIM, Dave Guiles, and other important guests the completed Orphan Welcome Center. She was able to explain the vision for the Center and the activities that go on there with Ginger Hock acting as her translator.


Dave Guiles, Tom Avey, Frank Poole, Mike Yoder, and Bill Katip (not shown) were in Bangui for an ACTS training seminar with Central African Pastors.

As the men left the center, they were surrounded by a crowd of thankful kids singing, dancing, and playing drums to send them off!

Dave Guiles was also able to meet with the child his family sponsors, Martine. It is a special treat for the children when they are able to receive some attention and love by way of letters or even face to face meetings!
