Last night Fr. Edmond Nyoka sent me these photos, I wept for a good hour, with tears of joy seeing their smiling faces and enthusiasm!
I’m on Twitter @ShennenBersani over there I’ve met some amazing, compassionate people who were donating to a Catholic priest, Father Edmond Nyoka in the Mzuzu, Malawi, Diocese of Saint Monica Parish. Fr. Edmond is an amazing soul, he has been raising money to purchase corn and rice for his famished community - and he has been teaching the children English. Other people in Scotland are raising money to purchase desks for the children, currently they have to sit on the floor. To help Fr. teach the children English, I sent 14 of my books to them:
Icky Bug Shapes; Jerry Pallotta, Scholastic
Ocean Counting: Odd Numbers; Jerry Pallotta, Charlesbridge
Butterfly Counting; Jerry Pallotta, Charlesbridge
Not a Butterfly Alphabet Book; Jerry Pallotta, Charlesbridge
The Eyeball Alphabet Book; Jerry Pallotta, Charlesbridge
Snakes: Long, Longer, Longest; Jerry Pallotta, Scholastic
Sharks: Big, Bigger, Biggest; Jerry Pallotta, Scholastic
Achoo! Why Pollen Counts; Shennen Bersani, Arbordale Publishing
Once Upon an Elephant; Linda Stanek, Arbordale Publishing
Cheetah Dreams, Linda Stanek, Arbordale Publishing
River Otter’s Adventure; Linda Stanek; Arbordale Publishing
Home in the Cave; Janet Halfmann, Arbordale Publishing
Yay for Big Brothers!; Janet Halfmann, Arbordale Publishing
The Shape Family Babies; Kristin Haas, Arbordale Publishing
I purchased my own books using my royalties and paid for the FedEx shipping with those royalties. If you choose to purchase any of my books please know my future royalties will be used to donate to others. I have a priest in Ghana waiting patiently for his donation of books.
If you are interested in helping out, donating to, Father Edmond, and his community (they do need more corn and rice), you can DM him on Twitter @ednyoka
🙏❤️
