We are intent on investing in the building up of the local Anglican churches in in Mozambique & Angola. By doing this, we enable these churches to support their communities & grow community development projects.** **These churches face the enormous struggles of extreme poverty & injustice whilst trying to care for the vulnerable & bring about good long-term change through being the Good News.** ## **t r u s t e e s** **Mr John Tasker (Chair)** **Rev.

Some dioceses asked for help to return to or enable worship in the churches. **We partnered with 3 other organisations to fundraise to rebuild a school with the Diocese of Nampula.** When this school was destroyed by Cyclone Kenneth, the Diocese drew up plans to enable its rebuild as a weather resilient school with latrines & a borehole. In collaboration with 3 other partners of the Diocese, we fundraised for this project. **We brought together 13 organisations and individuals from 6 different countries to hear from the Dioceses.** Our online AGM meant a wide variety of people and organisations could hear from the Dioceses and their plans for new Dioceses and a portugese-speaking Province - IAMA. **We made our second grant from the Mustard Seed Fund for future self-sufficiency within partner dioceses.** This grant was awarded to the Diocese of Lebombo to build a chicken farm at Matola Gare. It is hoped this project will generate income for the core costs of the Diocese and also will train ordinands on chicken farming to help income generation in their future parishes. **We made a grant from a legacy to create the Marratane Girls Project.** This project will enable girls from the Marratane Refugee camp to get a secondary education & learn skills for their future. how manna works hW4NA In 10 MANNA tothtTryJtetstylthe MtyT•MWq￿*TrdA￿￿lAN1l￿•Tr Ass¢¢l•tkn IAW4NAJ I rewrr toIhÈirust*eso￿ MytY4Min•ih)nof Iht¥thvrtisof tt*•bfveth•iityiorthe yeai trded 31 pectmtyer 2010.which4re5ei out ontF* Idk)win8 Pa8ts.
