Note from Kenya regarding the Horn of Africa Famine

Greetings in Jesus Christ’s Name. It has been a while since we talked in January and February when we were together, although it seems like yesterday. I keep on hearing good reports of the work you have continued to perform since we left. Be encouraged because you are in the Lord's vineyard and He alone rewards us accordingly.

This morning [I was] reading some reports  on hunger index, I thought, let me draw you to an article from International food policy research institute (IFPRI). Kenya on its index is 50th and is highly dependent on food imports & therefore extremely vulnerable to increasing and unpredictable international food prices. Food prices seasonally volatile due to drought .83% of the families buy food due to current drought.

Our Mission

By the Grace and with the help of God, the Alice Water Project will bring water to dry, but fertile land, relieve individuals from carrying 5 gallon (40lbs) cans of water long distances two to three times a day. In addition, we want to equip religious teachers with theological resources. All this will be done in close coordination and cooperation with the Kenyan community leaders and Kenyan government agencies.

Along with this mission, we also want to provide a way for people to contribute to the cause, both financially and through other kinds of support.

 

Our Vision

Our vision is to see water from Mount Kenya brought to the people, across dozens of miles. Along with the promise of water, we wish to see education, health, and the Gospel message brought to these villages. The water is a metaphor for these things, as well as a concrete, practical thing to help the villagers.
