Dear Brethren:

I greet you all in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are all fine here in Kenya though the drought is so severe. We thank you so much for your prayers and monthly support.

We received your monthly support on 5/15/00 and we really appreciated for we had just bought a piece of land to build a church where people were displaced during the tribal cleansing of 1992, which left many dead and other lost all what they had. We have an intention to open those churches that were left because many were destroyed.

The money you send us was of great help to buy building materials. Thank you so much for helping us to advance the kingdom of God in this harsh area where there is no development from the government but destruction of what is there. We ask for your prayers especially this hard time in our country. We always keep you in our daily prayers.

God bless more abundantly for all you have done for us. We do not have enough words to express our appreciation. Thank you again for the support and prayers.

Yours in His grace,

Pastor Samson K. Kihoti
