CBM NEP Drought Response

Since July, Canadian Baptist Ministries has been responding to the impact of the drought and famine in the Horn of Africa, through targeted feeding projects and health care services in mobile clinics in Kenya's Northeastern Province. Through partnership with local community-based organizations and agencies, we are feeding 7000 people living in overlooked villages and informal settlements.


Presently, Erica and I are working with our CBM colleagues, Tim and Diane Bannister, Yattani Gollo, and William Wako, to implement the next phase of CBM's drought response as we seek to help vulnerable communities to become more food secure, and mobilize them for self help initiatives and improved public health.


Please pray for these ministries as we work side by side with communities desperate for change!
