God gets the Glory
People are craning their necks to see what is happening in Kibera. They pass by here every day and cannot believe what they see! They say, “You mean that lady Monica, this is her school? She is from Kibera, how can it be? It MUST be GOD! It has to be GOD!! This is too hard for a woman from here to build this, NO WAY!” God is being glorified here! The King of Kings and Lord of Lords is getting credit for THIS!! No human is able to do this.
It’s a Terrible Place
Tommy Emory, from Jesup, Georgia, member at Calvary Baptist Church went to Kenya to help start our new school. Tommy told me that nothing I had told him prepared him for the reality of Kibera. It changes you, it gets in your soul, the people are melded in your heart, you see God and hear God better than you ever have before. I asked him to write a little something about his trip, this is his note:

Isaiah 61:1“The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed meto proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
Please pray for us! Please share the needs! Please invite us to come speak to your church! THANK YOU!!!
