FAMILY VISIT IN GACHAGI VILLAGE, NANYUKI

Baraka staff members visited the family of one of our sponsored children today. As we live in a comfort zone, it was so painful for us to see them staying with the domestic animals (dogs, goose & chicken) in a slum-like place. We greeted them, spent time with them and distributed food materials to the family. They were so happy to see us together with the family members. We pray that may the good God give us and the people around us the strength and the generous heart to help the needy. Let us share the message of Christ through service. COUNT THE BLESSINGS WE ENJOY                  AND BE THANKFUL TO GOD AND THE BENEFACTORS!
