Report for March 2008 from Katera Bolander

Click here for a report of March's highlights.

I officially feel like a broken record because, once again, I cannot believe it has been another month! I know that is a good indicator since it means I am settled and the time is flying. However, it also means the time is flying, which is unbelievable and scary. There are still so many things I hope to do before leaving. Please pray for me to have clarity to know exactly what to teach, how to teach it and to know which other things to accomplish and be able to do so. I'm excited about the initiatives this month. I am working with the staff to arrange some site visits with the students, especially the ones who are in the graduation course. I want them to have exposure to businesses in Nairobi specializing in their area of skill. We have some great ideas. Now, we just have to nail down the details.

Thank you for all of the prayers and support. I love this work and am completely thankful to God for this opportunity. Please continue to pray with special emphasis given to the staff as they strive for the energy and clarity to lead this organization day by day, the students who are in the graduation course as they are in the final stages before graduating from the program, and for the other students to be motivated and have unity as they take advantage of the opportunities given to them. Please also pray for the people still living in the streets that we will be able to share God's Light and purpose with them and that they will be willing to change their lives. And finally, please pray for those still hurting from the turmoil that shook this nation at the beginning of this year.

REJOICING in STUDENTS and TEAM
at MADE IN THE STREETS

We are always proud when our children live by the values that are important to us. So we are delighted when the Team and students at Made in the Streets take the initiative to serve others. In the following report from Francis Mbuvi and Jackton Omondi, you will see the story of their response to the trouble in Kenya that has left several hundred thousand homeless. This is a mission we are proud to be part of and support. Click
SPECIAL NOTE: The Team wants to do more work with displaced people, and Jackton wants to make about 300 more dolls to take to the children at the Camp. If anyone wants to help with this project, please send to Made in the Streets, 409 Franklin Road, Brentwood, TN 37027, note what it is for, and send an email to charles.coulston@made-in-the-streets.org noting how much you have sent. We could spend up to $2,000 or $3,000 without fulfilling all the needs of even a few hundred families.

Here is one picture of Made in the Streets students unloading food at the displacement center for now homeless Kikuyu tribal members in Limuru. Several of our Team members and students are from the Luo tribe and some from other tribes.
