Mama Linet Smiles

Hi friends,

I was able to visit Mama Linet again a few days ago and give her some help for school needs. Please continue to pray for her and her family's needs to be met. Also pray for me as I've lost my camera which I need to document our work to bring hope to the needy through Missions of Hope. 

Mama Linet was very happy.

Our Outreach to the Slums

Hello,

We had a short time this week where we visited with Linet and her family to check on their progress.

I was so excited to see them continuing to grow and fellowship in the Lord.

Here is little Linet. She still needs cleft palate surgery.

Here is Mama Linet holding the baby. You might remember that we helped her start a charcoal business but business has been slow.

Here is her little girl. We are so blessed to see her healthy and pray that some day she will get the surgery she needs.

Presenting Mama Linet with a mosquito net which she is happy to have.

The other woman in the area are also happy to get a mosquito net.

We had also visited those who really needed help in this slum area. especially during this time of heavy rains.

We gave out some mosquito nets to protect the kids in this area who need lots of help.  Blankets are really needed too as it is very cold in the slum areas during the rain.

They will use their nets to protect against mosquito bites and malaria. They need blankets to protect against the cold.

Continue to pray for these dear ones as they continue to thank the Lord for his provisions.

Otherwise have a great day and God bless.

Changing Lives

We continually monitor the work of this lady--Mama Linet since giving her start up funds to get a small business going. She is the one with the little girl, Linet; the one with a cleft palate.

Mama Linet's business is booming (according to her).  She has rented one more room so she can use one for her business of selling charcoal and omena (small fish).  She also sells cabbages to her friends and neighbors.  I'm so glad she has been able to pay fees for her kids who are going to primary school.

With the little help we've given her, I am seeing a big sign of moving forward and lifting herself and her family out of poverty through small business.

Please continue to pray for her.

At the same time, continue to pray for the medical student Kipngeno.  Kenya desperately needs young men and women who will study and train to become doctors.  Kipngeno went back to school today with only 10% of all the fees he needs.  We are trusting God for a breakthrough for him. 

Many thanks for praying with us for these needs.

December Missions in Photos

Helping a young mother start her charcoal business so she can support her family.

She has her charcoal lined up for customers.

Everyone is eager to see what we have brought. We usually bring sweets for the kids.

This woman is showing me her crowded living quarters. There is no room for cooking inside.

She cooks for her 5 children outside where these stones are.

The main things I bring for the people are mosquito nets to protect them from malaria. I also bring blankets to keep them warm as their shelters are not adequate to keep out the wind and rain.

These are the makeshift shelters they live in. There are about 35 families here.

Someone is always in need of medical attention.

Even the smallest things can make a big difference to the health of the children. These people are too poor to buy even the cheapest of medicines.

I brought sweets too. Even the adults like these little treats.

The Missions of Hope also provided food relief on December 24, 2011. If you missed it please see my last post.

You can help us by donating whatever you can so we can continue these kinds of relief efforts.
The donate button is on the top right of the screen.

If you cannot give, we would really appreciate if you can help raise awareness of the Missions of Hope by using the share buttons at the bottom of this post or any other post. Thank you!
