"Am informing you that the situation is getting worse. No Maize at all. People are dying everywhere because the famine that is here in Kenya and not only Kenya this is almost everywhere. Please, if God will open a way, please, we need money to purchase Maize and Beans. This is God's children. He loves them and He will never let them suffer any more...We have food for only two days. Anyway, we are crying to our almighty father to meet our needs at the right time. .Please, pray for God to meet our needs. Thank you so much for your concern in all. May the dear Lord bless you."   Pastor Moses.

This is part of an email that Hearth to Hearth Ministries recieved last month from one of their orphanage administrators.  The price of corn is going up in Kenya and it is getting harder to find.  Read more of the urgent plea for more maize for the African orphans.

Below is a picture of some of the orphans that come to the gate of the orphanage for food.  My son took this picture when he was helping at Hope for Children Center Orphanage the summer of 2006.  The orphanage did not have enough money to feed them so he took his own money to buy them some bread.  This is still on his mind because he wrote a paper about it this year for his English class called "Can Death Bring Life"  (Click the link to read what he still thinks about it.  I added some pictures to his paper when I posted it on the web.)
