Greetings Brethren, hope all of you are doing well both physically and more importantly, spiritually, as we patiently await the return of our Lord and Savior.
I am happy to inform you that we have taken on another orphan here at Sengera House. Her name is Veroscovia Kemunto age 15. She comes to us from the remote church of God group in Ikoba, Kenya. The congregation there has been requesting us to take her for the past couple of Months, because she has been suffering ever since her parent’s died. But we could not take on any more orphans at this time. Last week we received word that she was nearing death (had gone a week without eating) so we immediately arranged for her transport. She is now living here at Sengera House, and doing much better. The children have welcomed her with open arm, they all know quite well what it’s like to suffer and starve, they were in same situation before we took them in. Hoping to put Veroscovia in school (second year of High School) soon as we can afford to do so.
We have also completed the construction of the small office that the Kenya Government requires us to have. All the work was accomplished by the orphans themselves. They sure have been getting plenty of “hands on” experience in many fields of construction. This will help enable them to eventually become self supportive after completing their schooling.
The office is 8′ X 12′ located by the front gate. |
Also want to inform you that the orphan Manley (who’s dream is to become a surgeon) is well on his way. After completing elementary school with good grades, the Kenya Government has placed him in a prominent High School in Kisii, Kenya. Thanks to you donors, Haron and I were able to purchase all the required items for boarding, pay his 1st term school fees, and enroll him in that boarding school last week. Manley thanks those who have been assisting him, he appreciates your love for him very much.

Concerning brother Isaiah who was shot while being forced off his land, is still being hospitalized. Some of the Mau Evacuation brethren migrated to Bomet, including Benjamin Bet and his family. They are doing okay, and send their greetings. Was able to visit them on Thursday. They are renting a small two room structure, and making their own charcoal out of cow dung for cooking.

After being forced off their land they lived in the woods and on the streets of Narok for some time before getting into this two room structure. They are so happy now to have their own place, and with a toilet. Water is fetched at a stream two kilometers away. Thanks to you donors, we were able to help them with some supplies and also some second hand coats which the children are wearing.

Thanks to you donors, the children are treated to a soda every Friday night after Bible study.
May our Almighty Father bless each and every one of you donors for caring for these precious children.
Your brother in Christ.
