Recent messages from Kenya
These are two recent messages from Kenya.
There is need to consider to sponsor some of the youngest children that have been orphaned by death of Julius Magware from Dagoretti Corner Primary School. He left 8 children and a widow.
We have very needy 6 girl students at Elyon High School that have just arrived empty handed and need help - three from South Coast, two from Masaai and one from Kawangware Slums. Each will need about AUD $1000 per year to feed them both in semesters and holidays since they have lost family support through death of parents, attempted forced marriages and circumcisions.
For Kenya Help to be able to help these and similar children in need, we need new supporters.
Can ya help?

2014 MAT team is set
KENYA HELP 2014 MISSION AWARENESS TRIP
Our team is now decided for the next Mission Awareness Trip to Kenya in January 2014.
There will be a total of 13 including 4 leaders.
One interesting fact about this team is that apart from Peter and Rob (2 of our leaders), the entire team is female.
This will make the role of our other 2 leaders, Linda and Belinda, even more vital as they provide pastoral care for the team.

Current Fund Raising Events
This time of year there is always so much happening for everyone in the lead up to Christmas.
Last weekend Kenya Help had a stall at the local "Taste of Christmas" day. This annual day raises finds for SECET (Shoalhaven Employers of Christian Education Teachers). Kenya Help contributed to SECET by paying for our stall site. It was a very busy day for the whole event and sold many items from our stall including cards from Kibera Paper, jewellery from Heshima Children's Centre in Kenya and many packs of our Kenyan tea and coffee.
This Saturday we are holding another stall at the Playtime of Bomaderry fair day. If you are in the area call in and see us (Bomaderry Anglican Church) 10am - 2pm.
Later this month we are also having a fund raising move night. (See below for details)

Farewell day (Friday 20th January)
Today the team started departing Kenya. First to leave we're Andrew, Sam & Ryan. I dropped them at the airport about 5:30am. To the rest of the team, final packing was the morning priority.
With the packing complete, we headed to the Elephant Orphanage then lunch at Amani ya Juu. Amani ya Juu means peace from above and it is a ministry for marginalised women. They produce beautifully sewn items as well as running a cafe. We decided to lunch there.
After some last minute shopping, etc, it was time for the next split in the team. This time Joey & Louise were bundled into a private taxi to transfer to their next accommodation. Joey & Louise have now arranged to extend their Kenyan adventure by 12 days. I then transferred my belongings to my next accommodation (I'm stay until late Feb - more about that later).
I enjoyed one final Kenyan meal with the remainder of the team before saying goodbyes as they headed for the airport.
The whole trip has been an adventure for all of us in so many ways. We have been stretched physically, emotionally, culturally & spiritually. Thank you to everyone who has blanketed us in your prayers.
Joey & Louise might continue to blog here but I will blog my extended stay on my own blog - http://blog.ozcorners.net
