Weekend visit by Russ Foundation

This weekend a group of girls and boys from one Russ Foundations Children's Homes came and spent the afternoon at Shalom.  It coincided with my birthday so they enjoyed birthday cake,  chicken biriyani for lunch and then played lots of games.  Everyone had a wonderful time and they're keen to do it again.  Russ foundation does fantastic work with families and children effected by HIV and are organising our first medical camp which will be held at Shalom in January.  A team of doctors and medical staff from Madurai, will give free health checks and medicines to people from the village and assess everyone for a range of diseases including TB, diabetes and high blood pressure.

The boys got early to take a photo and wish me happy birthday
