Greetings! My name is Natalia, and I have been serving with Sodєjstviє in Kenya for nearly eight years. Thank you for your prayers for us, for Kenya, and for Africa! Your support means the world to us. ✨

Transforming the Children’s Home: Moving Towards a Family-Based Model

We are continuing our transition from a traditional shelter to a family-based model, creating smaller homes where children can experience love and stability. Currently, we are handling the necessary documentation for this transition.

Recently, we held a meeting with future foster parents, where we discussed fears, challenges, and the foundation of a Christian family. It was a time of shared experiences and seeking wisdom together. Each family also received guidance on budgeting and setting key household rules.

We are excited to announce that two foster families have already been formed! We were honored to pray for and bless them as they embark on this journey. 🙏

Praying for Healing: A Child in the Hospital

One of our children has been seriously ill. For a week, we have been undergoing tests and treatments, searching for answers. Tomorrow, we have a long-awaited appointment with a specialist who will examine his heart and review all test results.

The cost of treatment is high, but God has provided! Thanks to generous hearts, we found people willing to cover the expenses. We are deeply grateful!

New Format for Children’s Gatherings: Learning to Hear God’s Voice

This year, we introduced a new format for our children’s gatherings, with the first session focusing on the theme: “Hearing God’s Voice.”

We studied the story of Joseph’s dream, where God warned him to flee to Egypt to protect baby Jesus from King Herod. The children were challenged to reflect on this passage and write about how hearing God’s voice could impact their future.

At our next gathering, we shared testimonies on how God speaks to us—through Scripture, people, sermons, nature, worship, thoughts, and desires. The children actively engaged in discussions, and in my group, I shared a personal story of how God has guided me through life.

Providing Both Spiritual and Physical Nourishment

Thanks to your faithful support, we are not only feeding children spiritually but also ensuring their physical needs are met. A hungry child struggles to absorb the Word of God, and even Jesus cared for people’s physical needs before teaching them.

Your open hearts are a blessing to these children—you are part of God’s miracle! ❤️

Grateful for Your Support

A heartfelt thank you for standing with us financially. It is truly encouraging to know that we are not alone in this calling. Together, we can embrace, love, and introduce children, youth, and adults to the Savior!

May God bless you abundantly! 🙌
