Dear Friends of Riau,
"To give pleasure to a
single heart by a single act is better than a 1,000 heads bowing in
prayer." M. Gandhi, the Beautiful Soul
I am asked to write this message.
Last Tues & Wed I was in
Batam, and was blessed to have visited 3 "new" orphanages. Of the 3,
Sei Beduk needs the most help. There are 32 kids, ages 1-11, living in a space
of 3 x 12 sq m bedroom, hall-36 sq m & kitchen -see pic? Imagine- No
electricity & No running water. Wall made of ply woods& zinc roof.
There are plenty of holes on the wall & roofs. And the pavement??
May I kindly suggest we go and
serve them. The dates for the visits are from 11 - 12 August 2012.
The proposed itinerary:
1. Sun-Visit 2 orphanages- Sei
Beduk; & "TheSinging Orphans" (our therapy session)
2. Sat- Buy needful stuff &
goodie bags.
3. R & R- food, massage,
shopping & music
I need the following help:
1. Treasurers
2. Photographer & video
graphers (anyone who has hp/i-pads) to record Singing Orphans
3. Team members- shopping/packing
4. Logistics coordinators
5. Guitarist & singers- let's
sing for them
Please contact Peter Tan at 9061 1456 or gemstailor@gmail.com for further details on how you could
contribute to this meaningful and worthy cause.
May God's grace & blessings
be upon you,
Peter Tan
