Erestina is at present ten years old. She is doing well and in good health. Erestina is attending the fifth grade at school in Rodokal and to attend she needs to walk for at least forty five minutes. She walks together with the other children who attend school from Low Rodokal. Erestina likes to study and her favorite subject is Nature knowledge. She spends her free time playing volleyball but not too much recently and this is due to the bad weather. Her favorite color is red. Her future dream is to be a teacher.

Erestina attends regularly twice a week, every Monday and Thursday our feeding program at Rodokal, enjoying the combined meals cooked and served to the participating children. She likes the fried chicken, sausages, pasta and rice served by our cooks. Erestina attends the Bible classes for the children who are same age with her and enjoys singing to praise the Lord Jesus and learning from God’s Word. At the end of the Bible lesson, she and the other children spend time to play at our feeding centre under the care of our teachers. She also has the possibility to gain a free dental care offered at our dental clinic in Kotodesh.

Erestina has her father, mother and two brothers. Her brothers are both attending our feeding programme. Endri is fifteen years old and attends the first grade high school in Rodokal.  Eris is her twin brother. He is in the same class with Erestina and has just been registered to attend our programme.  Erestina’s father is emigrating in Greece and there he works eight months each year as hired to provide for his family. The amount he receives is a secure income to provide what is needed the most in his family. Same as all families in the village, they own land and have planted wheat. They use it to make their bread at home. They also keep a cow to at least provide some milk and other products for self consumption. The stock food for the cow is provided through the land. The mother of Erestina does the housekeeping and works at her vegetable garden.
