Immediate Need for Rehoboth House

email sent Sep. 6, 2013
Dear Friends and Family,
As many of you know, we will begin raising money very soon for food and projects to help  Rehoboth House for this next year. We have done very well  staying within our budget this past year!! We currently have $153 in the account to carry over into this coming year!
As of yesterday, we have an immediate need. All the children were sent home from school because their uniforms are in poor condition. We have not helped purchase uniforms in three years, so the condition of them isn't surprising.
Each uniform cost $15 dollars, this may seem a small amount to us, but that amount of money is actually half a months wages for the average family in Kenya. Since our dear friends, Caleb and Peter, are caring for 28 orphans, plus their immediate families, you can understand why coming up with $420 to purchase uniforms will be difficult.
Jay and I would love for you to help us purchase new uniforms for these children. We are so excited that the Lord continues to give us the opportunity to provided for these special children in HIS name for HIS glory!!
