Re. KENYA POST ELECTION CRISIS

Dear Friends,
    The Kenya politicians have come to an agreement and a 40 member cabinet chosen. However, many displaced refugees are still in refugee camps. Glory of Christ Ministry is still providing shelter and food for approximately 250 souls. Many Kenyans who have fled to Uganda are afraid to return home. Help from the government is almost non-existent in the GCM's area of ministry. Glory of Christ Ministry has been directly affected with two deaths of GCM members from the Cheptaise Congregation.
     Currently the 250 displaced refugees are being housed at the Kakichuma and Liyavo churches. These are large buildings that house many people and provide a place to sleep at night. The temperatures can get down into the 50s F at night.
    At the moment, money is needed to purchase food for the refugees. We thank all those who have responded so generously so far. All contributions are welcomed, no matter how small. It takes approximately $325.00 per week to provide food for the refugees.

NOW FOR SOME GOOD NEWS

    The building construction at the Glory of Christ Ministry Headquarters in Kitale/Liyavo has come to a close. The new headquarters building is completed. This building contains the GCM Director's home, office with a meeting room, two guest rooms, and a room for the GCM library. The Children's Home Kitchen building is also completed and now operational. Electricity has been brought to the children's home and office building. New toilets are now operational and soon showers will be available. The children's home has been renovated and is now a beautiful home for the 52 orphans who reside there. A new fence has just been put around the headquarters' compound adding a measure of security. We thank our gracious God for making all this possible.
