Greetings, dear brothers and sisters in Christ! 
All glory to God — we continue to serve under His guidance here on the equator, in Kenya.

Our team lives and serves among the slum communities, where people face great daily needs. One of our main ministries is a charity kitchen at the church, where we prepare breakfast for the elderly. Each morning, our leaders share the Word of God, and the kitchen helpers serve tea, bread, and eggs — a simple meal that often becomes a reminder of God’s care.

This project not only provides food but also gives employment to several cooks, helping them sustain their families. Every evening, we prepare hot dinners for widows, single mothers, and orphans. In total, we now run five social projects, and one of the greatest joys has been raising and mentoring a local team.

These young men and women have learned to use phones and computers, manage finances, and, most importantly, care for others. Recently, one of our young leaders got married — a rare and beautiful event in our area. Seeing young families start their journey with Christ gives us deep joy and hope for the future.

This month, we also installed five new beds for families with many children from our churches. It’s a small but powerful reminder that God’s love is practical — it brings rest, dignity, and peace to those who need it most.

I’m deeply grateful for the strong team God has given us. For five years, I prayed for helpers — and today, I see the answer to every prayer. It’s a blessing to serve together, to teach, to pray, to inspire, and to watch them grow for God’s glory.

We also had two special celebrations in October: my husband’s birthday on the 13th, mine on the 19th, and this year marks 10 years of our ministry in Kenya. What a testimony of His faithfulness!

From our family to yours — thank you for your open hearts, your love, and your generosity. Because of your support, this ministry continues to bring hope where it’s needed most.

Special thanks to IMOCE for your steadfast partnership and vision, even in the challenges of our time. May the name of our Lord be glorified! 

With love and gratitude,
