Jambo and Hello! We are raising money for our upcoming mission trip to Kenya! We leave at the end of October and we are short on funds.
On my first mission trip to Kenya in 2005, I experienced firsthand the widespread need there. For 15 years, we have been bringing Bibles, sharing the Gospel and helping kids. We have worked on clean water projects for several years and just a couple of years ago, discovered Lifestraw Community Water Filters. This year we have received enough donations to purchase 16 filters! We will deliver them to more schools and to health clinics. Without clean water, children are left to drink dirty water and many of them die from typhoid or cholera. Every person deserves an opportunity. CLEAN WATER is life and with out it, how can a child fulfill their potential and God's plan for them? What are we still raising money for? There is a cost to travel to these remote locations to deliver the water filters. A capable vehicle with a capable driver is a must. There are costs for fuel, for lodging, for food and for Bibles. When we gather with school children or in a village we bring more than just a filter. We bring HOPE. Love a child ... change the world. Please join us in anyway that you can! |
