Back to Kenya

Greet you in the name of Jesus dear friends. Thank you so much for your prayers, we reached Kenya well and sound. The flight was smooth without any disturbance. Hannah and I slept most of the flight. 

"Give thanks to the Lord,
because He is good,
his love is eternal" Ps 136

After having a long time break  it is time to get back to work. A lot of things needs to be done, and we believe it shall be done in God's timing (we all depend on God's mercy and provision). So appeal for you dear ones, please remember us in your prayers.

When we arrived in Kenya, Francizka (our volunteer) was already here. She came to work with us and the children in  Kwademu. She will be here for the next couple of weeks. We are so excited and happy about our time together, looking forward to what God has prepared for all of us. Also please remember her in  prayers, as she is far from her family and friends. 

Right now, the water in the tank got finish and every time we go in the village  we have to carry water from town for our own use.  Every bit of water is so treasured and we have to be very careful when we use. It is hard to imagine the situation here, while you have water 24h and you don't need to limit yourself. We are so great full for people from Głogow in Poland who are trying their level best to meet the need of putting the borehole. May God be the One who touches people hearts and make them contribute into that project. 

End of this month we are moving out to another house. We are very happy about it. Where we have stayed it has been a lot of noise and lot of disturbance. We pray that this new place will be a quiet place and enjoyable for all of us. It has also more rooms so we are able to host a voluntaries or friends who want to come, help us and enjoy Kenya. All are very welcome. 
Please stand with us in prayers, we need around 1000$ every month for our living including transport, bills, Hannah's education etc. I believe everything is possible for our God who has no limits. Its not easy, always we are struggling to meet our budget that's why we ask you to pray with us. 

When I look at our situation, there are times when I don't feel like I am going to carry on any longer. I want to quit and go back home, to Poland. However there is something what is holding me here- obedience. There are times when God ask us to do things which are not easy and they need a lot of sacrifice and humility. Jesus himself had to came down from heaven to be able to meet us human beings here on the earth. I feel like I am here so that God can use me to reach the forgotten and  vulnerable. This is called love, when we are able to put down our own desires and be able to serve others. 

May God touch our hearts and eyes so that we will be able  not only to see but also be able to respond to the needs. We shall not be discouraged and think  that we are not able to meet them, even the smallest help from all of us it can be significant on the other side. Together we can make a difference. 

Right now we are desperately praying for toilets for the kids. Over 80 children go into the bushes because of lacking latrines. Please stand with us for that project. Kids are waiting for the miracle and you can be part of it.


God bless you abundantly
