We are home!!! We had a great trip to Kenya. We laid the cornerstone for Shining Star Children’s Home in Kisii. The home will be built in 4 stages with stage one progressing very fast. We have a team of men working for us who are committed to the children working many hours without pay and going above and beyond their duty. This first stage is already full with 24 children waiting for the completion.
After the laying of the cornerstone we had two groups 3 sisters and 2 brothers that actually came to the pastors home by their selves and knocked on the door begging to be included as they are living on the streets right now. So our 24 capacity phase has turned into capacity of 29 as we cannot turn them away.
I have included pictures of them in at the bottom of this update.
We had a unbelievable meeting at Prayer Mt Kenya with the women numbering 150 -200 and crowding inside the small auditorium. God moved and the women stayed from 5 AM till 10 PM at night, worshipping, praying and learning. Several were healed and delivered as we both ministered.
Also had privilege to speak at at Deliverance church in Nairobi where they are maxed out in their makeshift building that holds 3,000 and are having 3 services every Sunday. It was a moving time to see all those people worshipping God.
We fed the street children in Nairobi and spoke at a Pastors conference as well as a church in the Keibera slum area. We stayed busy!
To complete the 1st phase of the home we need only 7,000 more which will complete it. Since we left there has been such progress and we are believing for the remainder of the money necessary (7,000) to come in before Christmas so the children can move in by then. Only the roof needs to be placed and the plumbing placed for the home to be complete.
Thank you in advance for helping us meet this goal. You can donate on this page by following the link to our ministry Paypal acct.
We will be traveling again hopefully to Kenya in April to visit the children and start the new addition.
There will be three more additions in the complete building of Shining Star that when completed will house 96 children.
Enjoy the pictures and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all your love and support.
