Our team leaves for Kenya in just 3 months!
Our team keeps growing…and there are now 11 of us going on
this mission trip in September, our largest team yet! We are
busy preparing and raising funds for our trip, and are all looking forward to
an awesome time serving and being the Lord’s hands and feet to the staff and all the children at HappyLife!
We had a lovely visit this month
from Peter and Faith Ndungu, the Kenyan Directors of HappyLife Children’s Home in Nairobi Texas to met with local churches and develop new relationships, and raise awareness and support for their ministry to the abandoned children of Kenya . I had the privilege of connecting them with our Missions pastor at Woodlands Church while they were here in the Houston

“I recently
sat with a couple that has always wanted to come and visit us but said they
could not because they thought we charge a fee, it honestly broke my heart.” “There
is so much to do at Happy Life that money cannot buy…holding a baby, loving
on them, talking to our teenagers, and now that our school is becoming bigger,
we need counselors who can volunteer their services.” “We
need all the help we can get and everybody is welcome to visit as often as they
like.”
