Amplifying the Message: Our Church’s Urgent Need for Microphones


Microphones

Good morning ,evening family,In every church service, the Word of God is the central focus—the light that guides us, heals us, and draws us closer to Christ. At Salvation Gospel Church Obambo, we’ve continued to grow in spirit, fellowship, and numbers. With this growth comes the need to ensure that every voice lifted in praise and every word preached in truth reaches the ears and hearts of all who gather with us.

One major challenge we are currently facing is the lack of proper sound equipment—particularly microphones. During our Sunday services and weekly fellowships, the absence of functioning microphones has made it difficult for both the preacher and the choir to minister effectively. Words are lost in the air, voices strain to reach the back rows, and the power of our worship is often muffled when it should be soaring.

We are kindly appealing for support to acquire 2 to 3 quality microphones to improve our sound during services. These microphones will:

  • Help the pastor preach clearly without straining, ensuring that the entire congregation can hear the Word of God without difficulty.
  • Enable our choir to minister powerfully through music and praise, without their voices getting lost or overpowered by background noise.
  • Allow for smooth coordination during announcements, testimonies, and church programs.

This is not just about sound—it’s about souls. When the message is heard clearly, faith is stirred, hope is restored, and lives are changed.

We trust in the generosity of our church family, friends, and well-wishers. If you feel led to contribute toward this mission, your gift—whether big or small—will help amplify the Gospel in our midst.

Let’s join hands to ensure that no word goes unheard and no song goes unsung.

To support or inquire, please reach out to us via contact page via Email:[email protected]

Thank you, and may God bless you abundantly as you consider partnering with us in this vital need.


Many blessings and have a blessed new month of July 2025.

Reaching Out with Love — Supporting Widow Perez and Widower Raphael with Food


🕊️

By Pastor Samuel Omolo

In a world where many go unnoticed in their suffering, it is our Christian duty to reflect Christ’s love through acts of kindness. This past week, I had the honor of visiting and supporting two dear individuals from our community—Widower Raphael and Widow Perez—who are both enduring challenging times after losing their spouses and having no employment to sustain their daily needs.

Through your prayers and the grace of God, I was able to bring them basic food supplies to help them through these difficult days.


📸 Widower Raphael Receiving Support

Raphael, a humble and aged man, stood outside his small home with gratitude shining in his eyes. Though life has been hard without a partner and job, his spirit remains hopeful.

Raphael shared:
“Pastor Omolo, I don’t have words strong enough to express what I feel. When you showed up with food, I felt like God had heard my silent cry. Thank you for remembering people like me.”


📸 Widow Perez Being Assisted

Perez, a widow , was filled with emotion as she received food donations. The burden of being jobless after losing her husband has weighed heavily on her heart—but on this day, she was reminded that God still sends help through His people.

Perez said:
“Life has been very hard since my husband passed away. I lost him and almost lost my hope. But your visit brought light into my home. May God bless you abundantly for your kindness.”


These visits are not just about food—they are about restoring hope, showing love, and living out the Gospel in real and practical ways.


🙏 A Heartfelt Thanks

To all who continue to support our mission—thank you. Your encouragement and generosity make moments like these possible. If you feel moved to be part of this work, reach out. Let us continue being the hands and feet of Christ.

“Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the Lord, and He will reward them for what they have done.” — Proverbs 19:17

Rodrick’s&Friends Journey: Learning Welding Before College

Well designed Gate by Rodrick and his friends.
Boys at work.They finished high school together

Meet Rodrick and his friends— a determined young men who completed high school last year and chose not to waste a single moment waiting for college. Instead, they rolled up their sleeves and decided to learn a valuable skill: welding.

With dreams in their hearts and fire in their  hands (literally and figuratively!), Rodrick and his friends  joined a local welding workshop to gain hands-on experience. They knew that learning a skill before starting college in September would not only give them confidence, but also open doors to future opportunities — both as  students and as  professionals.

I’ve had the privilege of supporting them through this journey. From paying  training fees and daily lunch to buying  the necessary tools, it’s been an honor to invest in their growth. Their dedication and willingness to learn inspire me every day.

As September approaches, Rodrick and friends  continue to shape metal and shape their future. I’m excited to see what lies ahead for them in college and beyond — and proud to have played a small part in their  story.

Let’s keep supporting young people like Rodrick and his friends  who are eager to learn, grow, and change their future — one skill at a time.

Sharing God’s Love Through Maize: A Gift to Our Widows in Need


In these difficult times when the price of basic food like maize has soared beyond what many families can afford, God has reminded us once again of the power of giving, compassion, and community. Recently, I had the privilege of distributing maize to a group of widows who are part of our church support program. It was a small gesture—but for them, it meant the world.

These dear women, many of whom have endured great hardship, have always held a special place in my heart and in the mission of our ministry. Their lives are marked by strength, faith, and resilience. As the cost of living rises and food becomes harder to come by, their struggles become even heavier to bear.

So with a heart full of prayer, I stepped out in faith and gave what I could—kgs of  maize each to help them through this trying season. Their response was overwhelming. With tearful eyes and joyful hearts, they received the maize not just as food, but as a symbol of God’s provision. They lifted their hands in gratitude and showered me with blessings, not just for the maize, but for the love, care, and consistency that our ministry has shown over time.

It reminded me of James 1:27, which says, “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress…” This is more than a calling—it’s a commitment. These widows are not forgotten; they are seen, valued, and loved.

I thank God for giving me the opportunity to serve them, and I will continue to support them whenever I can. Whether through food, prayer, encouragement, or just being present—we are called to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

To those who support this work through prayer or giving, thank you. May God bless you abundantly. And to our beloved widows: your strength inspires us, your faith moves us, and your blessings are felt deeply.

Let’s continue to be a light in each other’s lives, especially in times of need.

Bringing Hope to Orphans: How I Helped Gerry and Lawrence Stay in School


Every child deserves a chance to learn, to grow, and to dream. Yet, for many orphaned children, those chances are often stolen by poverty, hunger, and lack of support. Today, I want to share the stories of two amazing boys—Lawrence and Gerry—whose lives took a turn for the better through small acts of love and kindness.

Lawrence’s Story: Equipping a Dreamer

Lawrence happy to receive books

Lawrence, pictured above, is an orphan who had no access to even the most basic school materials. No books. No pens. No exercise books. Yet he showed up to school, determined to learn.

When I met him, I saw not just a child in need, but a young man full of hope and determination. I immediately provided him with the necessary stationeries and enrolled him in a lunch programme. Today, Lawrence walks to school with his head held high, prepared and confident. His joy and gratitude are infectious.

Gerry’s Story: Saving a Life, One Meal at a Time

Gerry back in class again

Gerry’s story is heartbreaking but also deeply inspiring. He had been sent home due to unpaid school fees and had no one to advocate for him. But what shook me most was learning that he had nearly lost his life due to severe ulcers caused by going without food. As an orphan, he couldn’t afford lunch and had gone hungry for far too long.

I stepped in to pay part of his school fees so he could return to class, and just like Lawrence, I enrolled him in the lunch programme. Seeing him healthy, back in uniform, and carrying his books was a reminder that sometimes, saving a life doesn’t require a miracle—just someone who cares.

Why I Do This

There are many more children like Gerry and Lawrence—bright, determined, but blocked by circumstances beyond their control. I believe it is our calling to stand in the gap for them. Whether it’s through school fees, stationeries, or a simple daily meal, every act of compassion plants a seed of hope.

If these stories have touched your heart and you’d like to help support more children like Lawrence and Gerry, I welcome your support. Together, we can give these children not just education, but a future.
