Dear Friends,
I received the below email from Patrick. What a wonderful testimony to the strength and character of the students and faculity at the MCC School. How exciting for them after such difficult times.

Wednesday 5th was a special day in Mercy care Centre in the sense that it was the day that most of the pupils were living the valley for the first time.This was prompted by the Drama Music festival that was to take place on that day.When we left school,we set the following goals;(i) That we were going to enjoy being out of the valley and meeting with other schools.(ii) That we were going to be cautious not to engage in any thing that might bring problems(iii) That when all is done and said we were going to compete as we have always done and no matter the out come we should derive enjoyment from all that and see what other children look like.In the Zonal competition there were fifty schools who were representing various items.Our school was representing a drama dance and a Narrative.We performed at 7.00 pm and were the last on the stage.Yet when the result were announced we had emerged first overall.The electric atmosphere that followed described it all.That this children who lived in fear and were not sure what to do next can now say.Life must continue because if the lord is for us who can be against us.Thank you for your praye.We climb the provincial stage in two weeks time.God Bless ypu allPatrick LumumbaPrincipa-MCC

When you see glimpses of God's grace, you shed a tear, smile, and feel overwhelmed with happiness. The children in Mercy Care Centre are being watched over and God is showing us his love to them in a time when they are feeling unloved and torn apart. What wonderful news and excitement for upcoming competitions. To take the children out of the valley and have them experience such a victory was a great act. Thank you to Patrick and the teachers for leading them up.
