Solar Lights for Kenya

The closer it gets to our mission trip 2012, the more excited we all get.  We have placed our order for more of the solar lights that we took in last year to some of our children that had sponsors that gifted them with the lights. THEY LOVED THEM!!! They said, "we have never had a torch" before!  Not even a flashlight had ever lit up their little homes before. Since that delivery last July, 2011 the grades of the children that received them have all greatly improved. THEY CAN DO THEIR HOMEWORK!  So exciting.

So we are taking more in this year for the rest of our 56 children we sponsor.  So if you care to donate towards those lights, even if you are not a sponsor, we accept all donations, any amounts. You can mail your tax deductible check to Peace Lutheran, 2084 Couty Rd N, Baldwin WI 54002, attn: His Arms Ministry.  We operate our 501c thru Peace Lutheran. 

We also may be able to offer visitors to our website a chance to donate in the near future thru Pay Pal donation button. You would not even need your own account to do so, but could donate with a credit card. Details need to be worked out, but it is looking hopeful.  We will let you know as that progresses.

One more HOPEFUL thing!! We now have gathered over $1500 toward our property purchase toward the $3000 needed to get our match from a generous donor.  Then that $6000 would be enough to purchase that piece of land for the ministry.  We are excited!  God is moving, people are listening and we are thankful!

Asante Sana/thank you to our faithful followers! 

Kenya Orphan Property Project

Habari to all of our friends and supporters. The month of June surely went by quickly. Since our last blog letting you know about the great chance of having matching funds earned toward the purchase of property in Maseno, Kenya for our ministry, I am happy to report we almost have taken in $1000. YEAH!!  Brenda and I coordinated a Brat stand at the local shopping center which brought in $225 of that. Everyone is trying. Just wanted you to know it is not too late for any kind of gift toward that project.

We have found out that the land owner will definitely sell us the piece of property we have had our volunteers look at.  It would be a place where a building could be constructed to house our support groups, possibly even be a church on Sunday's, have a corner that could be developed into a library, and who knows what all!!!  Plus it could be a place our visitors could safely stay at when in Maseno on trips.  So we all are so excited.  

We will keep praying and keep working at fundraisers.  This Sunday the team leads worship services at Peace Lutheran in Baldwin Wisconsin.  We are excited about that, and will hope you can prayerfully support us!  

Blessings and love from the His Arms Kenya Ministry!
