Dear Prayer Partner,
Greetings in Jesus Name!
Thanks for your prayers, God answered, food was distributed in Refugee camp A and B. On Saturday, we visited children in 6 hospitals located here in Bujumbura.
Please receive photos attached to this message, African Power Lambs raised banner in refugee camp B this time. Many children were so happy to hear that God loves and care for them even during the time of war that they are passing through here in Burundi. YHWH is their God who protects them and whom they will call for help in time of troubles. Jesus Christ is their personal Savior and Redeemer. All African Power Lambs were very happy to praise God for He loves them so much.
That was a blessed day because after raising the banner, food was distributed to children and they thanked God for that provision. What a miracle to have such gifts during troubles, may the Lord bless brothers and sisters in the Lord who accepted to share with us what they have. Thank you very much for feeding us at this great time of need of help, “Children said”.
In total 690 children recieved food, 44 are in hospitals and we visited them on Saturday. During the attack, 107 children were killed. Truly it sad to have them died but I know they are now in Heaven with our Lord Jesus Christ because Jesus was their personal Sovior, they believed in Him and I shared with them message of Salvation every Saturday. I know that one day I will see them in Heaven.
We are praying for the wounded children so that God heals them. We thank God for the great work that Doctors are going to treat them. I found them health critical situation but we know God is there to help them. Children were supprised to see me visiting them , look !!! our teach has come to see us here in hospital, children said. This word touched my heart, my prayer is that the Lord helps all us to meet in Heaven in God’s groly one day. I encouraged these children and gave them food , biscuit and juice. They were very happy to receive that gift, they didn’t want me to leave them.
Please pray for the children in hospitals, they are in critical situation because of wounds. Doctors are treating them but it will take them a long time to be healed. Please remember to pray for children. 690 Children in refugee camps and the ones in hospitals still need more food, it would to give them enough food at least 3 times a week, they also need clothing please.
We at CCD Burundi and all African Power Lambs thank you for your prayers and help, please continue to remember these surviving children. More support is needed now and we would appreciate whatever you are able to send in order to meet physical needs of these children. We request you to share this message and photos with your friends, your Pastor, your church members and all people who are willing to pray and help children.
Please pray and tell others to pray for children in refugee camps here in Burundi, they are in a great need of food, clothing, medical treatment, educational materials, school fees, mobile clinic and so on.
May the Lord bless you richly.
Yours in Christ,

Dear Prayer Partner,
Greetings in Jesus Name!
After the tragedy in Gatumba refugee camp that took many women and children, we sent a message to you for prayer and support for the survived children. Thank you for your prayers, God answered, yesterday CCD BURUNDI distributed food to the survived children who are in refugee camp A. We thank brothers and sisters for the support they sent because it helped us to know how many children we have in the camps. To provide food for 400 children and transport. 44 children were injured and are now in 6 hospitals here in Bujumbura.
As I informed you, Gatumba has two refugee camps, the refugee camp A has 445 children registered now but there are others children that have not registered yet. The refugee camp B has 174 children. In total, those we have in our records are 619 children, but since there are others to be registered, the number of children will be increased because some of them do not live in the camps, they are afraid of being killed again and their parents decided to go in the villages. We will continue to look for them and get to know their number. Since we have many children in refugee camp A, it was not possible to buy clothing for children but we were able to provide food. We hope next time they will get clothing and food.
Yesterday, we distributed food at refugee camp A and 400 children received 1 kg of food. All children didn’t receive food, we told them that next time they will get food. We are praying that God may open doors to get more funds in order to meet the needs of the children at refugee camps. They are also need Bibles to read for Spiritual help.
Please pray and tell others to pray for children in refugee camps here in Burundi, they are in a great need of food, clothing, medical treatment, educational materials, school fees, mobile clinic and so on.
Children at refugee camp highly thank you for your prayers and support. They still need your prayers and support. If you have any way to help, please do so because the needy children at refugee camp are in critical situation.
Please see photos attached to this message. May the Lord bless you all. Thanks.
Yours in Christ,
