2016 September Talk on Mary's Meals
Tue, Sep 13th 2016 at 8:33 pm - 9:33 pm
Just an incredible story delivered by a really dedicated supporter of this cause
Lillian Barton gave one of the most touching talks that the audience have heard in a long time. The essence was information on the charity which provides the daily food(and it was not a 3 course meal simply a bowl of soup/porridge). The base is in Malawi and without the bowl of food the kids would starve. The food is distributed to those who attend school, and therefore they are gaining an education.
The "staff" preparing the meals are all volunteers from the villages, and there are requests from new potential groups all of the time. The current number of children fed per day exceeds ONE MILLION.
