Greetings from Kibarani Center! We are delighted to share some of the highlights with you. We appreciate your unwavering support and valued partnership as we continue working together to transform lives through Christ. Thank you for partnering with us to bring hope to our community. You are an important part of this journey, and we are grateful to have you with us. Wilberfoce Atundo, Head Teacher, Kibarani   ![Pencil - Primary Blue - Icon 2-1](https://blog.mohiafrica.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Icons/Pencil%20-%20Primary%20Blue%20-%20Icon%202-1.png?width=883&height=889&name=Pencil%20-%20Primary%20Blue%20-%20Icon%202-1.png) ### School Highlights - We recruited 305 additional students, from kindergarten through Grade 8, who are expected to join our school next year. This brings us closer to our vision of serving more than 1,000 students. - Staff and students joined a community awareness walk to a nearby market. They discussed substance use, early pregnancy, and school dropout, and encouraged families to support children’s education. - Our first Cultural Day brought parents, staff, and students together to celebrate their cultural heritage through students’ talents and creativity. ![Church - Primary Blue - Icon 3](https://blog.mohiafrica.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Church%20-%20Primary%20Blue%20-%20Icon%203.png?width=951&height=1212&name=Church%20-%20Primary%20Blue%20-%20Icon%203.png) ### Church Highlights - Through our Compassion Ministry, staff and church members contributed food and household essentials for families and individuals facing hardship. They also spent time praying together and sharing Christ’s love. - With Summit Christian Church in Sparks, Nevada, we held a men’s conference attended by more than 400 men. Sessions explored faith, family, leadership, character, and spiritual responsibility. Eleven men gave their lives to Christ and were later baptized at a service. - Sixty-eight students completed discipleship classes focused on biblical teaching and Christian growth. ![MOHI\_Icon-Impct\_v1\_07-13-23-1](https://blog.mohiafrica.org/hs-fs/hubfs/MOHI_Icon-Impct_v1_07-13-23-1.png?width=100&height=100&name=MOHI_Icon-Impct_v1_07-13-23-1.png) ### Together in Ministry - A team from Pella Communities Church led a Vacation Bible School for all students, with Bible lessons, crafts, and games. - A team from Samaritan’s Feet International in Charlotte, North Carolina, distributed shoes to students and parents while sharing God’s Word and Christ’s love. - A team from Vibrant Christian Church toured the school and visited the families of sponsored students. - We also welcomed a team from NorthPointe Christian Church in Lincoln, Rhode Island, and shared about the work God is doing in Kibarani.   ![icon-stars](https://blog.mohiafrica.org/hubfs/icon-stars.svg) ### A Story of Hope Aaron was going through a difficult period that affected his ability to care for his family, even though he had steady employment. His children enrolled at MOHI, and staff spent time with the family, sharing God’s Word and offering guidance on supporting the children’s well-being. Aaron chose to accept Christ and be baptized, and the family began attending church together. Later, Aaron successfully applied for a role at MOHI. He values the sense of community among colleagues and the opportunities to continue growing in faith. His income helps him meet his family’s basic needs, and he remains involved in his children’s education. Aaron is grateful that his children have access to a Christian education in a safe learning environment. He continues working to care for his family and looks ahead with hope. A different name has been used to honor privacy.   ![icon-hands](https://blog.mohiafrica.org/hubfs/icon-hands.svg) ### Prayer Requests - Pray for wisdom and understanding for students and teachers as they work toward stronger academic performance. - Pray for the well-being of staff, students, and community members. - Pray for Grade 6 and 9 students preparing for national tests, and for peace, good health, and smooth coordination during the examination period.   ![icon-heart](https://blog.mohiafrica.org/hubfs/icon-heart.svg) ### Encourage Your Sponsored Child As you read about how God is working, please consider sending a message of encouragement to your sponsored child through the [MOHI mobile app](https://mohiafrica.org/mobile-app/) or through your [online sponsor account](https://give.mohiafrica.org/login).
