Mission |
Currently
we are working in Kenya, Africa where we assist
small communities of Rusinga Island,
abundant with fishing villages on the eastern
shores of heavily polluted Lake Victoria.
When
we first came here the people had no clean
drinking water, no clean water for medical care
and due to heavy drought conditions they had
no practical way to water their small gardens.
These
communities are home to approximately 1000 orphan
children who are living in "child-run" homes
which had no clean water or adequate food. There
are no orphanages, as there are no adults to
care for or supervise them. Living
Waters has been working here since 2006 and is
committed to reducing the incidence of orphaned
children and providing them with health, food
and educational needs. |

Living
Waters continues to provide meals, school uniforms
and basic medical care to 150 orphan children.
With the solar oven, the fresh water and the flourishing
gardens the dedicated local staff are working hard
to produce daily meals and caring for the children.
Daryl and Mary Jo along with the children and staff
wish to extend our sincere thanks to all who continue
to support this vital lifesaving program which
is making a real difference in the lives of so
many
of God's children.
