News from Kenya
Nick sent me a some new photos of the work in Eldoret. They've been using the new car to make the rounds helping out families with AIDS. The photo above is of Kitonga's family - his little girls - the youngest one is named Maggie and she was born with AIDS. The team in Kenya has been excited about the quicker response time with the car. Dr. Oronje is at a seminar this week in Kericho.

Amazing Grace Orphanage News
There's lots of exciting stuff going on with the team in Sudan and Uganda. There are several visitors from other countries going to be traveling to the orphanage this summer. They will help with teaching and music and encouraging the kids and staff.

Susan writes that most things are going well, although the blue lorry broke down, and the drought still has lingering effects on both orphanages. Susan has also asked if Lahash can consider expanding their support of the St. Bartholomew orphanage. A Canadian team earlier this year built 3 new dorms, and at this point they are vacant. Susan would like to begin accepting the younger kids - the infants and toddlers - but this requires another level of commitment from Lahash. We currently support the Orphanage there at $300 per month, but we would need another $200 of commitments to allow these orphan babies to live at the orphanage. If you, your family or your community would be interested in taking care of these kids, please contact Lahash.

Karin Rosain interviewed Emmanuel Lasu while we were at the Amazing Grace Orphanage. Lasu is a musician from Sudan who sings about the "mamaland" and his album is uniting the Southern Sudanese at this tense moment in history. You can read his personal story here.

And I've uploaded the pictures of all the Amazing Grace kids onto the web - you can read about each kid with some personal details. My goal this month is to create a program where you can sponsor the kids from Amazing Grace in the same way we are meeting the needs of the kids in Tanzania. I'll provide more details soon on that.
