Emseni Care Centre - official opening 12 August 2006

The official opening of Emseni Care Centre ("emseni" means the place of grace) will be at 10am on Saturday 12 August 2006. Although ECC has been operational since March the care-givers needed to complete a Home-Based Care course before the centre could be officially opened. The main aim of ECC is to provide love, care and prayer for those who are suffering from HIV/Aids. The first stage of the complex has been completed and can accommodate about 20 people as well as full-time staff. As the Lord provides we hope to build larger buildings for many more.

The first photo above is of Mrs J. Howarth handing over 100 metres of sheeting to be made into sheets and pillows for ECC. Mrs Howarth donated the sheeting from her company, Magnet Electric, which is based in 48 Hannah Rd, Durban.

The second photo is of another part of the ministry to Aids sufferers, the orphans. Kwasizabantu sends out teams with food, clothing and basic medical help, to areas where orphans are found. About 2000 orphans have been registered with local authorities.

Below are a few photos of some of the patients at Emseni.
