Kenya Update-April 2019
Medical Camp – Mailtisa Kenya
Unite 4 Africa has been supporting Medical camps in the rural parts of Kenya for many years now. And locals have benefited with specialized treatments and minor surgeries that is only available in the cities and to those who are rich. One particular case brought joy to our hearts to see the mother of a young boy born with cleft lip smile with lots of joy, after surgery to repair was done. She thought it was not possible to repair and was shy to let her son play with other Children.
We are grateful to Unite 4 Africa for bringing a smile to this young boy and the family.

Oletumuke Church and School
What started as Church has turned out to become a huge school. Through Evangelism Oletumuke Church was born and because children use to walk distance to school, the church hosted young kids in two different classes at the same time, with all making noise that the other class is difficult to understand what the teacher is teaching. Provision of porridge increased the number of children attending school at this time, which is dry and hot season. We pray for God to provide classes for these kids so they will have a good learning place and provision of good, clean drinking water.

Empowering Pastors Through Training – Nalepo Baptist, Ngong
Through “With Open Eyes” pastors at Magadi area of Kajiado County have been receiving training to empower them to take the Gospel and empower others. Bishop Simon Kariuki of Cities of Refuge Ministries is leading this. We have had a one on one interaction with pastors on the impact of this training. They confess that this training has opened their minds on the scriptures and it is helping them grow their churches and do more evangelism.
