Do you remember Ben and Joel, the two young and orphaned brothers we welcomed a few weeks ago? Through further investigation, we located their 11-year-old brother, John. Unfortunately, John was also living in very poor conditions. For his safety and the long-term well-being of all three boys, we have decided to bring John into our care as well. By keeping them together as a single family unit, we are giving them the best chance at healing. We feel truly blessed to be able to provide a safe haven for such vulnerable children and to keep this family whole. We need to get John sponsored. Here is his profile page.
Our Healthy Child Fund has been working overtime lately. Between Ben, Joel, and John settling in and keeping the rest of our students in tip-top shape, the fund is sitting critically low. It needs a serious recharge. If you’ve got a passion for health, these kids depend on us to cover everything from basic check-ups to the advanced stuff. You can jump in and help HERE.
Speaking of health—you know the saying that behind every great man is a great woman? For Bishop, that woman is his wife Ruth. She is as humble as they come, but she’s also a powerhouse who simply gets things done. This week, she had to undergo an urgent hysterectomy. We’d appreciate your prayers for her recovery, and if you’d like to help cover her hospital bill, you can donate below—just put "Ruth" in the donation note.
Make an impact without spending an extra dime. We have a cool new tool called Double the Donation. You just type in your company’s name to see if they’ll match your current or even past donations from this year. It’s an incredibly easy way to do more for the women and children in Kenya. Check if your company offers this HERE.
Finally: We have way too many shirts. We’ve got a mountain of event shirts from last year that look awesome and fit great, but they gotta go! If you buy one for $1 from our online store, I will ship you as many more as you want for no extra charge. Do you attend Awaken Great Bay church? We can bring them to you on a Sunday! Seriously. Take them. While you’re there, check out our other merch so you can rock some swag and spread the word about Kenya Now.
