January 2012

Laura Muema and Erica today in Nairobi

We are excited to begin 2012 with several new ministry initiatives with the Guardians of Hope, Urban outreach ministry and the CBM North East Province program. Today, we were laying out plans with our project officer, Laura Muema, as we prepare for an upcoming conference and curriculum development for CBM's self help group projects in Kenya.

Please remember us in prayer as we work together over the coming months to both strengthen the existing self help groups, and expand this ministry. We are looking forward to a conference on the importance of sisterhood in two weeks time, as we gather representatives from urban and rural self help groups to share how they have experienced the power of women helping women in their contexts. We are glad that a group of four women from New Minas Baptist Church, Nova Scotia, will be joining us for this time of training and encouragement.

Maureen and Wayne Morgan

Yesterday, we helped the Morgan family move into their new home at the Shade Language School in the beautiful tea hills above Nairobi. The Morgans have jumped right into life in Kenya, with Wayne bravely driving along the narrow and crowded roads from his first day -- please remember them in prayer this weekend as they move their son Sean and friend Jenny into University here in Kenya.
