Rob and Liz Smith went out this April to see the work of An African Dream for the first time. The mission went very well and they were able to cover many aspects. They met with Lumika and his team to discuss Health issues, ongoing needs, new developments and to receive a report from the local church leaders. They visited St Mark’s School reviewing repairs and improvements to the buildings. Liz worked with teachers to develop ideas for ‘Slate Use’ within the curriculum. They were also able to spend time with Claire Newby, who has been working with An African Dream in Uganda since March 2011. Claire helped them to distribute gifts to the orphans and to organise letter writing sessions with the pupils to children in the UK. Claire also joined Rob and Liz to visit several local widows. The Smiths also attended the Widows Conference at Maliba Church on Friday April 15th and addressed the congregation.
