This image of eyes on top of the buildings in Kibera, reminds me of the scripture:
"For the eyes of the LORD move to and fro throughout the earth that He may strongly support those whose heart is completely His."
Prayer is an important part of each and every day!

Each Friday, the children assemble outside to declare their praise to God! They recite scripture, they sing, they pray...it is a wonderful way to start the day at Miracle Victory Children's Centre! |
Teacher Melvin leads them during this particular Friday.

Here are a few of the precious children impacted by you and your generosity! The reason we do what we do- LOVE these kiddos!!
They are loved and nurtured by our staff of teachers.

We have spoken before about the tapestry that the Lord is weaving between lives, people and different ministry groups. I am in awe of God and it is a joy to serve Him and watch things unfold. I still can't see the entire masterpiece or understand just how this whole thing will come together- but God is faithful, He is good and I can put all my trust in Him. He loves these children more than I do, He is the Giver of life and the Creator of everything! He wants them to experience His great and perfect love.

Baobab trees were pretty cool, they make an interesting candy from the seeds.
the dry fruit pulp is covered in colored sugar and sold as a sweet and sour candy called “umbuyu”, we picked some up in Fort Jesus in Mombasa

Day one, this trip-
it makes it very hard to leave, love is a beautiful thing!
