the village of hope seeks to help children infected or affected by hiv, aids and tb in two different ways: we have a 9 bed children's unit to support those infected by hiv and aids and we also run a community-based sports and lifeskills outreach in the informal settlements and squatter camps each afternoon.

this blog has been set up to allow the key members of the team at the village of hope to share their thoughts, photos and experiences as we work in the community of grabouw in south africa

lack of communication (and grape harvest!)


last night the phonelines to the village of hope were stolen so we just wanted to let you know that communication from us will be a little slow over the next few days, however we still need you to continue to pray for us as we look to take our first children in early next week.

this morning we have harvested the grapes on the farm, collecting around 70kg of grapes which a local winemaker has taken to make into some port wine for us...only 6 months to wait to see what this will taste like and maybe telkom will have our phonelines sorted before then but i'm not holding my breath!
