Solar lights have been installed and are functioning in the new community!! The deaf are enjoying their new gathering places opportunities to convene outdoors through the night! We are still seeking funding for the second half of the lighting solution but for now, it is a great start. The clean water solution is also underway and the community committee is receiving training in the management of water as a community asset. The deaf families have also installed gutters on their homes as we are entering into the rainy season. All families have an opportunity for clean water from multiple sources out in Leveque.
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.
