Our team leaves for Kenya on September 8th and we've been busy the last two months collecting donations for Happy Life and getting ready for our trip!
It's exciting to see all the supplies that have been donated for the Children's Home so far...we'll have no problem filling all the extra suitcases we're planning to bring along with us! Through the generosity of the missions ministry at Woodlands Church, we've been given an abundance of shoes, clothing, bedding, diapers, and school supplies to take with us to bless the children at Happy Life!

We've also received some generous cash donations to provide a basketball court and new desks for the school. The funds have been sent and they plan to have the basketball court finished by the time we arrive in September. It will be such a joy to visit the school and see the children having fun playing basketball on the new court and enjoying their new desks!
It's always a special treat to see the precious little ones we've met on previous visits...it's a blessing to see how they're growing up into such beautiful children!

We're looking forward to visiting Happy Life's new Children's Hospital which opened in February. The five-story hospital is located on the property across from the Children's home and is serving the orphans at Happy Life and providing affordable health care to the local community. Most of our team will be staying in the new volunteer guest rooms on the 5th floor during our visit this year.
A huge thanks to everyone who partnered with me and donated toward my trip! Through the generous donations from friends and family, all the expenses for my trip have been paid for...God is always faithful to provide!!
I can't wait to Go and Love on all those precious
children once again!
