STREET KIDS COME TO THE CENTER

Francis Mbuvi reports on activities for boys at the Eastleigh Center....

"The programs in Eastleigh for 2015 started last Monday with 38 boys coming; the following Tuesday 40 came. Yesterday, 56 boys came. Most of them are coming from Mutindwa and Globe bases.
We had a discussion as to why there was such a big number, and it occurred that they like the food we prepare for them! Some of the boys had told the team when they visited Globe - "Napenda Chakula mob -- chapo, mandazi, ndengu na dodo" (“I like the variety of choice -- chapati, mandazi, lentils and beans").  They are able to eat and even carry some for later.  All that plus the extra fruit and tea they have at the Center in the morning makes it worthwhile for them to walk two or more miles. Moses and Byron have been alternating in teaching, and they say the kids understand the Bible stories they teach.

We praise God."
