Greetings Brethren,

Greetings from Sengera House. We want to thank and praise our Heavenly Father for the care He has bestowed on the orphans here in Sengera Kenya. All 17 of the orphans are doing well. They are currently off from school until January 2018 when the new school year begins. As you may know two have graduated 8th grade and I am happy to inform you that both passed the entrance exams needed to be accepted into High School. It is thanks to you donors who have been assisting these children that they are receiving an education, they appreciate your support very much.

Currently we are quite busy here at the orphanage complying with the Kenya Government’s requirements that they have imposed on us. We have been moving forward with a number of projects, one is the building of a not only required, but much needed cafeteria where the orphans can eat their meals. (They have been taking all their meals in the sitting room of the boys house.)

The foundation and walls of the new cafeteria are now complete, and we hope to install the roof this coming week. We have also been working on the construction of a detached store room where not only supplies can be securely stored, but it will also provide a place for the various grains that they are growing to be stored come harvest time.

Another requirement was to have a strong metal gate at the main entrance of the compound. We have been moving forward with that project also and should complete it soon. Below you will find some pictures of all these projects.

We also want to remind you that the children here have been involved with each and every project, as we continue to teach them various trades, and give them plenty of “hands on” experience. We are trying to teach each and every orphan some kind of trade so they can become self-supportive in the future. All of you donors are doing some really good works by supporting these children, good works that are glorifying our Heavenly Father. So we thank you for your support, and want you to know that we are doing our best to use the funds properly and efficiently. We have also been continuing to support a number of “true” widows, assisting them in their time of need.

We also hope to turn the spare room in the girl’s house into a sewing room, so the girls can learn that trade.

Your brother in the Faith.
