SPRING RALLY HOSTED BY TRINITY, KLEIN, LADIES AID AND LADIES GUILD
Approximately 65 women from the ten Golden Harvest Zone member churches were privileged to attend and participate in the Spring Rally. The Rally devotion, led by Pastor Gene Johnson, a member of Trinity’s ministry staff, was based on Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “…plans to give you hope and a future” and led directly into the program on Kenyan Schools of Hope. Speaker Jeanne Carmichael spoke about the construction of the Ewaso Osiligi Center which seeks to provide a sanctuary for young girls who are suffering female genital mutilation and forced early marriage. These practices dramatically impact the lives and well-being of the Maasai girl population.” The Vision and Purpose statement of the Kenyan schools is as follows: “Kenyan Schools of Hope believes every child should have a place to feel safe, be loved, and have the opportunity reach their potential. SAFETY. HOPE. EDUCATION.” The new center, containing both classrooms and dormitory space, will impact 80 female students (both local and rescue) and 50 male day students. The Center will also serve as a community water resource and a community education center. For more information, see www.kenyanschoolsofhope.org.
