Dear friends of TLC
This letter comes to you with deep gratitude and awe at your ongoing support and interest towards my work in South Africa especially among the children at the informal settlement. This time the children have also expressed their gratitude for all your kindness. I have attached their drawings and short letters. I will send some photos of Fr Sean, Darius and myself with the children when I return home as I am in Cape Town this week working in our Holy Cross Schools. The children also sent thank you letters to Jenna for raising funds by raffling the teddy bear.
By all accounts and visuals the sale of work proved to be a tremendous effort. It will be our intention to buy the children clothes, shoes and educational material for school in the New Year.
From the bottom of my heart I say once again a big ‘THANK YOU’ and be assured that each and every one of you and your families are remembered in my prayers.
Yours sincerely
Bernadette
