We have been helping Principal Judy care for pre-school and slightly older kids who have nowhere to go when their mothers head out in the morning to look for some kind of work.  Many are left without adult care or food.  Graceland School is a dream come true where other educated young women who live in the Kibera slum are dedicating their lives to give kids a chance to learn about God's love, memorize Bible verses and learn English, math and science, but one of the most touching sights for me is to see kids who have to fight for food every day, eating a healthy, nutritious lunch- filled with gratitude!!   The School is so crowded that kids and teachers have to step over each other to move.  We have been praying for more space but even in the slums it is incredibly expensive and hard to find!  A new possibility has just popped up and we would love to have you pray with us about God's provision for this critical need!  

By God's grace, I will be traveling to Israel beginning August 9th and then to Kenya for ten days to visit our workers, volunteers and schools where we are feeding around 1200 kids a healthy meal, six days a week.  For many this is their only meal...    

Letter from Judy:

God is faithful. Do you remember pastor Jerry  my desire prayer that the neighbours here would move and the place be for our school, believe it the neighbours moved out on Saturday 9.7.2022. (i.e. July, 9, 2022) Still talking with the owner though they are very reluctant to allow us move the school here we are trusting God for a miracle! Thank you for prayers.

Praying for space, food and my compassion for principal Judy, workers and children. And Pastor Jerry’s visit there.
