Christmas 2014 in Uganda and Kenya

Christmas is a special time at the SOH and LSH homes in Uganda and Kenya as well as where you are.   With the help of donations specifically for the Christmas fund the Directors, Pastor Paul and Pastor Moses, organize a celebration which includes a special meal, treats, clothes, trips, and gifts.  They all know that receiving the gift of God’s grace through Jesus Christ is what Christmas is about but special things make kids feel valued and is a very fun part of Christmas.  Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible!

The boys at the SOH home in Uganda got the best gift of all…a new home.  They moved out of the cramped rented quarters in the trading post onto the compound with the girls.  This 9 room building is one of the best for a dozen miles around.  Their walk to school is also a mile shorter each way.

All the SOH kids and their new clothes in front of the new Boys Dorm.

The kids also had a special meal with goat meat and soda and gifts of new clothes and a new set of drums.  Singing and dancing is their favorite thing.

Look at that pile of food.  He will eat it all.
