Iris Mieze...and the Mieze Model

Background

MIEZE:

•    The Children’s Village has been operating since December, 2007. All the original children are still with us and we have added three more in recent months... in each case due to the death of the last remaining family member.
•    The past school year was very successful for all resident kids. When the new school year begins in January, all but the two youngest resident kids will be in school—34 in total.

Mieze

The two major new developments in the Mieze project since our last report are the construction of the new church and community centre building and the wonderful children’s evangelistic program called the Bandeira club.

Introduction
As a result of years of extreme poverty, rural children in remote northern Mozambique suffer more hardship, disease, and abuse than almost any other children in the world today.
