Children, children everywhere

 

A few days before the dedication of the Community Center, we had a concert.  One of the team members from WI travels around the world playing the trumpet and speaking.   We invited the community to come for this concert and a message given by a Kenyan pastor.  People kept coming, and coming.  With the unfinished building as the backdrop, over 300 folks came.  The amazing fact is that over half, close to 200 were children from the Nyrienda village, Green compound, and our own Village of Hope.. 

 

What an opportunity!   Children hungry to know God, to learn, to grow.  We will be praying about what we will be doing to reach out to these children.

Thats great!

Imagine having 300 people show up in America to listen to someone play trumpet and speak. You could put up advertisements and flyers all over town, but it would never happen. We're all too busy here.
