Shoes, Shoes

Not a day goes by when I don't think about Kenya. My hopes and dreams are for the lives of the men, women and children of Kenya to be improved, even in small ways. I am especially focussed on Chepkurbet, Kenya where I have personal contacts. You never know how touching someone's life, even in a small way, can impact them in a huge way.

Today I leave you with one photo and link to a story which you can read here.

Can you imagine needing shoes? I know that in times past here in Canada even there were many who were too poor to buy shoes. That was long ago and today I have never see anyone going bare foot because they have no shoes.

Shoes. They are such a simple thing to us and one I hope we don't take for granted.

If you would like to know more about how you can help these Kenyan children get shoes, please contact me (kerichoyjoy[at]gmail.com).

Have a wonderful day wherever you may be in the world.

School Opens Again for the New Year

Hello,

Are you ready to help? Even if you are not here is the chance. With just $9 you will be able to buy supplies for orphans as they go to school next week. Maybe you are wondering what this would buy? Books, pens, pencils, jelly, soap and the list goes on.

I was recently able to supply about 15 orphans with all the needs for this coming school opening. (The pictures are not exhaustive). Please open your hearts to these children. There are still many more in need. If you can help, please let me know! God bless you.

You can send funds via Pay Pal to kerichojoy[at]gmail[dot]com or kerichojoy[@]gmail[.]com Sorry to put the address in this form but that is to protect against spammers (at least that is what I'm told). If you can't decipher it please click "view my profile" in the right hand column and you will see the email address. Alternatively, you can learn more about other sending options here at www.jonahsmissions.blogspot.com (see column on the right side of the page).
