Some signs of joy

rs. As on Monday's we have our food distribution and as always we had to check the people because we are only allowed to give out food to the IDP's from our camp. The sanitary installations make more and more progress and what is enjoyable, the people are smiling a little more. They are happy that somebody cares about them and that every day the circumstances in the camp are a little better. Some children even start on their own to clean up the ground and started to play. If you instruct the children early, you can see the result. This morning we had another joyful moment: a mother gave birth to twins - all three are fine.
