An historical moment in partnership that shows one value of these short-term mission trips. Last year the Golden Oldies heard the cry form Chief Jone that his village desperately needed new toilets. For 55-years nothing has happened. Then in faith and hope, last year the Golden Oldies team said they would like to work in partnership to see the building of these toilets. This village miraculously raised $6,000 started construction and awaited the final $6,000 to be raised to finish them.
Today, with support from the Golden Oldies and this NZCMS Families Mission Team, a cheque was presented to Chief Jone for $6,000. A tearful and emotional Jone thanked everyone, and now his desire is to have them ready for opening when the Golden Oldies arrive next month.
