Allotments are made and checks are being written to 9 mission recipients with a total of $2,300 being spent. 
World Concern writes:  Thank you for transforming lives in the world’s poorest places with gifts of clean water, food, income, education, and the love of Christ.  Your prayers and generosity to World Concern, a member of the CHRISTA family of ministries, makes a huge impact on the lives of children and families.
Thank you for your generosity and prayers that make a  life-changing difference for women like Lekilelei, an elderly widow who lives in Matakwani Village in Kenya.  Lekilelei  and the other women in her village used to get water from a nearby water pan which was not protected from animals.  The elephants nearby used this same water and, as you can imagine, the water was filthy and filled with disease.  But Lekilelei and the other women had no alternative, so they used this water for their families to drink and cook and clean.
Thanks to you and mission contributions we were able to construct a concrete tank and the women now have clean water! Their families no longer have diarrhea and water-borne diseases, and they are so happy.
You changed the lives of Lekilelei and so many other women and families in our world because you gave to World Concern, and your gifts did much more than provide clean water...it opened their hearts to hear the Gospel and learn about the God who loves them. 
In just the first 6 months of 2021 over 10,000 people were engaged in spiritual development.  The impact of that is eternal.  God Bless You (from Jacinta Tegman, CEO, CHRISTA Ministries)
Margaret S, Mission Elder
