Street Children Update
Hey everyone!
As we are receiving updates from Reverend Gideon in Kenya
about the street children and Ajiambo, I want to pass them on to you and let
you know how things are going in Busia!
Here is an email update we received from Reverend Gideon:
Hi!
How are you doing ?
We are going on very well.
We managed to trace Ajiambo’s home but
failed to get the brother.
She was discharged from the hospital
two days ago and we managed to pay the hospital bill of Ksh.
3302.00 but it was found that she was
HIV+ and was referred to AMPATH.
This is an organization that cares for
HIV+ patients in Busia. So we decided that we keep her with florence
because the wound on her leg needs
continuous care and enable easier follow-up by AMPATH.
To help with care we have brought
Brenda (one of the street girls) to keep her company and assist in bathing her.
We have officially launched a children
home and so far we have five (5) orphans including Ajiambo and brenda.
We are not able to build a temporary
structure because of limited funds however Florence accepted to keep them in
her house and use the money to buy food and pay for medical expenses as we
trust God to provide the rest of the needs.
My wife has decided that we will
continue giving tea and mandazi to the street kids at least once a week.
Thanks once again for enabling us begin
this noble task.
May the good Lord bless you richly.
Please let us know how you are fairing
on in Uganda. Send me your phone number so that i can call you.
Thanks and God bless you
Rev. Gideon Titus Wanyama
Senior Pastor
Deliverance Church Busia Kenya.
It is so encouraging to me that the Lord is furthering the
work He started in Busia, as well as aiding Reverend Gideon in His vision for
restoration for the street children. It
is absolutely heartbreaking that Ajiambo has tested HIV= and prayers for
physical, emotional and spiritual wellness would be greatly appreciated. I am comforted though, knowing that she is
under the care of Florence, Gideon, Mama and Jesus.
I will continue to keep you updated on the happenings in
Busia as they come to me!
Thank you so much for your support and care 🙂
