Books for youths about knowing God and obedience to Parents.
Today i was inspired to write an ebook and also print some hard copies for our youths in the church and also around the world.We have noted in the recent past cases of indiscipline where they are used in Gangs to maim others..I think it’s important to get support to help them know the right way of helping shape them.They are the leaders of tomorrow and therefore every parent,teacher,preacher and all concerned must work hard to nurture them.
I will share a link for the pdf version.Please share and support the work .Many blessings.

I made the journey to Barolengo to deliver food for the school feeding programme where Usher attends. The trip was necessary since the school is quite far from home, and I wanted to ensure Usher and other students continues to benefit from this vital programme.
The Importance of School Feeding Programmes
School feeding programmes are targeted social safety nets that provide both educational and health benefits to vulnerable children. They increase enrollment rates, reduce absenteeism, and improve food security at the household level. For children like Usher who attend schools in remote areas, these programmes are not just about nutrition-they’re essential for keeping children in school and giving them a chance for a better future.
In Kenya, school feeding programmes have been pivotal in providing meals to pre-primary and primary school children. The impact of these programmes extends far beyond just providing a meal. Teachers have noted improvements in student concentration and participation, reinforcing the link between nutrition, education, and protection.
The Situation in Our Region
The school feeding programme at Barolengo has become particularly crucial in recent times. Similar to what’s happening in other Counties many learners in our area come from low-income households where access to regular meals is a challenge. Food insecurity has been blamed for high numbers of school dropouts and absenteeism across various counties in Kenya.
Many blessings and lets continue to pray for all the students.
Today at Church was a day of hope, dignity, and gratitude as girls in our community received their monthly supply of sanitary pads. This ongoing initiative ensures that every month, girls have access to the hygiene products they need, and those who missed out today will receive theirs next week. The impact of this simple act of kindness is profound, and the gratitude expressed by the girls and their families is a testament to the importance of such programs.
Why Monthly Sanitary Pad Donations Matter
For many girls, especially in underprivileged communities, the inability to afford sanitary pads can lead to embarrassment, missed school days, and even health risks. By providing sanitary pads on a monthly basis, we are not just meeting a basic need-we are restoring dignity, boosting confidence, and enabling girls to pursue their education without interruption.
Benefits Seen by the Girls
The benefits of this initiative have been both immediate and far-reaching:
Increased School Attendance: Girls no longer have to miss classes during their periods, which has led to improved academic performance and reduced absenteeism.
Restored Dignity and Confidence: Access to sanitary pads means girls can manage their periods with dignity, free from shame or the fear of humiliation.
Improved Hygiene and Health: With proper sanitary products, girls are less likely to resort to unsafe alternatives, reducing the risk of infections and other health issues.
Empowerment: Girls feel valued and supported, knowing their community cares about their well-being. This support encourages them to dream bigger and break barriers.
Words of Gratitude
The gratitude from the girls and their families has been heartfelt. Many have shared how this initiative has changed their lives:
“Before, I would miss school and feel embarrassed, but now I can attend every class and participate fully. Thank you for thinking of us.”
A beneficiary
“My mother is no longer stressed because I don’t use pieces of clothing anymore during my period, and my friends and I play freely now. Thank you so much for the many things you have done for us.”
