Update from Ken Ochieng in Garissa, Kenya - July 2007

We thank God for you and pray that you enjoy intimacy with him.
Life has been busy with lots of activities geared towards connecting with the locals.

Our visit to children’s home run by “mama Hani” was so successful. This old Muslim lady (72 years) has been working so hard to take care of the children majority of whom were dropped by their mothers. In the Somali culture, it is so bad to have a child out of wedlock and so there are a lot of Somali ladies (those who don’t want abortion) who have to carry the child till birth and then drop them in the garbage. People who find these children know where to take them—“mama Hani”. The long clothes that cover the head to the sole makes it easy for these girls to carry the pregnancy without people noticing. Some parents throw their children if they have disabilities. We took our boarding children so we could all spent time with this underprivileged children—many of our students learnt to appreciate who they are because they realized that others are worse.
Our own children, Tim & Ann learnt the importance of giving—we told them the story behind those children’s predicament and they were so touched about it---they gave clothes to be donated to those children. As a family, we are praying to God to help us know the workable strategies that will enable us reach out in love to those children. We hope to send you pictures of the same.

On 5th July we distributed mosquito nets and cooking utensils to a number of Somali ladies that lost things during the flood---the impact of the flood is felt to date

Please, do pray for a Somali brother “A” below that I won to the Lord and am trying to follow him up. He seems to be under intense pressure to give up Christianity. Thank you for standing in the gap.

For the fulfillment of the great commission,
Ken & Eunice
