We are having a great time at Catalyst 2010 (A conference for young leaders) catching up with old friends and meeting new friends as well. Our booth this year is focused on Education in Kenya. We have recreated a Kenyan classroom that you can come sit in and watch a video of students in Kenya. We also have a big canvas set up that anyone at Catalyst can come and sign. We will be sending the canvas to schools in Kenya so notes of encouragement are welcome! We also have our THINK bracelets on display. So, if you text THINK to 50555 (which donates $5 to education in Kenya) while at Catalyst, you can let us know at our booth and we’ll hook you up with a bracelet signed by a Kenyan student. You will also be able to sign a blank bracelet to be sent back to Kenya! Check out the pictures below…
New Year: Next Level Ministry
A New Year frequently evokes a multitude of emotions, deeply influenced by various reasons based on the season of life one is at. For many, it symbolizes a rejuvenating fresh start—a precious opportunity to release the burdens of the past and embrace the future brimming with hope. This transition evokes excitement, particularly for school-age children returning to the classroom after a long break from school in November and December here in Kenya. While children are thrilled to reunite with their classmates and dive back into the classroom environment, they may also grapple with a sense of déjà vu; the inevitability of returning to homework, assignments, and the pressure of upcoming exams can cast a shadow over their eagerness for new beginnings.
