continued unrest

Athough Kenya has not been in the headlines over the past week, trouble is far from past. Tensions are bubbling below the surface waiting for a reason to explode. None of the leaders are willing to negotiate or work with outside mediation.

Today parliament reopens and some are expecting a show-down. We’ll see what happens. Then starting Wednesday there are mass rallies planned three consecutive days all around Kenya. For more details on what is happening, please go to BBC

Please continue to pray for Kenya in the days to come!

Kenya Emergency Relief fund

An SIM project has been setup for people who want to donate funds to help with the relief efforts.
The project number is KE92601
and is titled: Kenya Emergency Relief Fund
Funds can be sent via any SIM Sending Office (www.sim.org), please reference the above project number. Donations given will normally qualify as tax deductible or similar depending on the country of the sending office.
These funds will be used to assist with food, water, medical needs, etc and will in most cases be directed through an existing local church or ministry that already has a good working relationship with SIM in Kenya. We do intend to have SIM people involved as well in many of the cases.
