A Growing Family!

Aika, Michael, Jonathan, Helena, Mariam, Manyashi (Esther at school)

Yesterday was an exciting one for us as we welcomed two new children onto our campus and into the Mbugua family. I don’t think I will EVER get tired of watching the end results of this ministry! It is so amazing to watch children who have no one come into a family and know they will be there for the rest of their lives! Michael and Aika came to us from Forever Angels, a baby home in Mwanza. You can read the day from Amy, the director’s perspective here for the date of Aug. 4, Wednesday. Amy does a terrific job with all her children, and it is a privilege to work with her for the children. Michael and Aika are two of the several we will be receiving from Amy’s home in the near future, as they are too old now for her place.


This morning we had our Thursday morning singing time with all the kids. It was such a blessing afterwards, to hear Michael talk about his mommy and what she had made him for breakfast, what his daddy was doing at work, “Did you see my big house?”

Thank you for your continued prayers. Milka and John have been parents now for about nine months, and have seven children under their roof! They have a big responsibility, lots of love to pour out, and they are doing an amazing job! It is awesome to see once again the power of the family to disciple little ones.

New sisters!
