Chasing the Call-July 1, 2011 from Caleb Schaubroeck on Vimeo.
The last few days have been hot in the valley around the camps, and people are hoping that means that rain will soon come; An ironic prediction but its been proven true consistently and people are very hopeful. It has been very dry and people crops have not been fairing well. The possible rain would be a huge answer to prayer as the Peanut business is likely to begin planting soon- the members are still raising funds to contribute so that they can have a sense
of ownership for the project. Today Noah is in Nairobi visiting microfinance organizations that we are hoping will come alongside some existing businesses and help them grow with low interest loans. He will also be pricing charcoal ovens for the women's baking business illustrated in the video. Teresa- the leader of the group, is very innovative and has gathered a group of ladies, and elderly men to share in the business. It is exciting to see employment developing for so many people, including a young widow who supports 6 children and suffers from a club foot. We continue to pray for Tumiani and are still looking for ways to help their daunting situation. Thank God, for he has both the strength and love to care for these people. Please pray for us all as we are nearing the half way mark of our time here and are in need of both strength and perserverance as we see the projects to completion. Thankyou- Nathan

It is always a blessing to see children when we go to the camps as they lighten spirits; It is bitter sweet however as their presence in the camps during the day, means that none of the children in this image are going to school do to lack of funds.
