Christmas greetings from Wycliffe - please read!

This is a Christmas greeting of enormous gratitude from Wycliffe, the orphans care taker. Wycliffe's a pastor and as such he does express a very big thank you this year. For them their faith is great and important, thus Christmas is a big holiday. For them being able to celebrate the birth of Jesus having food and also some candy is a big event. We at Agaptivity are happy for being able, at the very last minute, thanks to new contributors, to help out giving them this opportunity. A big thank you for that, and also a big thank you to all of you have been with us this year giving your support.

They are so greatful that even though they are out of food again they feel so strengthened that they will go through with it till we can help them again.

One of the best Christmas mas ever that orphans enjoyed was this of 2015. With support from Agaptivity donors we were able to feed all orphans with delicious meals of chicken, meat, ugali, rice and juices and candies. Thanks to Ted and myself together with staffs of Agaptivity that this was successfulful! We commemorated and remembered the Christ birth in our hearts. Because we have agenda to be grateful of that no child died of hunger or sickness but this year was a challenge. We were able to address basic needs of these orphans through genouros donations and support from people and friends with a big and huge heart and with love to lay their lives for the parentless children as their own. With food, water, sanitary, pads, toiletries, encouragements and smiles that we in Kisumu, Kenya had a reason of hope, determination and endurance. Ted, May God continue strengthen you and add you abundantly. The Governent of Kenya is back to work from 27th Dec 2015 and have cancelled long holiday with exceptional only on 1st new year and so banks and other offices will be open from tommorrow 27th. We take this early opportunity to wish everyone a happy new year 2016. Keep the good effort, support the orphans together with us. We might runout of food from today but streangths and believe and the values jeep us strong. Thanks. 
We enter into another year scalling up of development and bring a difference and healthy orphans with a bright future. 
On 4th schools will be open for another tearm after holidays.We pray and trust that we shall get writting and reading education materials,uniforms,transport back to school,basic medical treatment for minor ailments and child sponsored parents through Agaptivity. 
Long live Agaptivity! 
At my family lever it was a year that God brought a smile with blessing to us by giving us (mini)Maria. [Their newborn daughter being named after Teds wife] 
t was a moment that God took me to places from the village to centers from towns to cities and from being a local to opportunity to see and meet Ted when i traveled to Finland. 
Even though it was a sad year of burring 6 of  lical church members nut it wad a year that God used me to bring people to Him through teachings and preaching the Gospel of Lord Jesus Christ by grace.

Kind regards
