YMCA for the poor at Xmas

I really count myself very lucky to bring a smiling face to over thousand poor children and parents in Lima,Peru during this xmas season.As we all know that this season is the season of sharing what you have with people especially for the YMCA, Peru.With over hundred youths in the YMCA visited the poor people.It was really sad when I got there,people are suffering but with our programmes on that joined with free gifts and menu to over thousand poor,we brought smailing face back to their hungry face at least for the main time,they will remember it.

When you have just try to remember all the poor around you.Thats God love for us.Merry Xmas and Happy New Year in Advance.

Baby Shower In Lima

I was there in one of the famous ceremonies in Peru being held for unborn baby that is near to be deliver by the mother.

The father of the baby have to eat chocolate or any other things from the baby pampers.Funny…..You have to see this:

This is the father of the unborn baby eating from the baby´s pamper.

The second step is that,the mother have to wear a pamper for the father of the unborn baby. See this……….

After that the father needs to behave like a baby..

See this……

All the people present there present the unborn baby with different kind of gifts which the father have to open and must guess correctly what is inside before tearing the wrapper and if not he is going to drink like a baby.

It was nice being in the gathering because everything was funny.

Gift from Noelia to celebrate a month of my arrival in Peru.

Lord I put the rest of my stay here in your hands….Amen

Der Countdown läuft …

Heute vor 6 Wochen sind wir in Ibadan angekommen und auf den Tag genau in 4 Wochen werden wir Nigeria wieder verlassen. Unglaublich wie schnell die Zeit vergeht. Mittlerweile fühlen wir uns fast schon ein bisschen heimisch … haben uns mit den örtlichen Gegebenheiten arrangiert, wissen wo man günstig und gut einkaufen gehen kann, wieviel eine Fahrt mit dem Taxi zu Mobil (eine wichtige Kreuzung in Ibadan) kostet, wie eine nigerianische Arztpraxis von innen aussieht und vor allen Dingen, dass Zeit eine relative Größe ist.

Nun sind wir gespannt, welche Überraschungen in den verbleibenden Wochen auf uns warten – und soviel steht fest: es werden garantiert einige sein, schließlich sind wir in Nigeria

Another City in the City of Lima

On 3rd of September,2009, I together with the German Volunteers visited the Independencial part of Lima where ACJ,Peru has been alots of good works. ACJ,Peru shown exactly what really mean COMMUNITY WORK. Independencial part of Lima is such a poor area where alots of less prviledge citizens are living their normal life. At the main office of the ACJ,Peru, we met with their staffs to have a brief discussion.And after that, we moved round the place where alots of women were learning different kind of handiwork.

Pictures Above: Women being trained on how to make money with their ability to create and design. Insight are some of their works in the community and I learnt that lots of CVJM in Germany always brought in Jobs for them like T Shirt, Cap,Polo Shirt and so on.

We then moved from there to where I called “Another City in the city of Lima”, where people are suffering. Poor Enviroment…………………..

See the pictures:

Things are very bad in this environment and still you will see the joy in their faces.ACJ,Peru is doing wonderful job to help the people living in this community by building an Health Post in some critical area of the community.

ACJ,Peru also provides job opportunities for some indigenes of the environment.Here are some staffs of ACJ,Peru that oversee the affairs of the projects.

And they are working very hard for the people.

I was very touched to see what is going on in dome parts of the world but I was very happy that where I belong is making efforts to make life better for those people that needs help in this community called INDEPENDENCIAL.

Workers and Members of ACJ,Peru always visited theplace every week and I want to use this medium to appreciate the good work from ACJ,Peru and encourage them to do more.

Non-Governmental Organisation´s out there should know that some people needs help.Why can´t we provide it,if we have the power.

God will bless us to raise the dying people amidst us.

People are suffering.
