New kitchen constructed with blocks made by TM
The church building has been erected to replace the tent at the church plant site. The orange blocks you see in the pic were made by TM with a machine we borrowed from the government. Ruth is planning to show Christian videos to the young people. The videos will be targeted to the recently new converts. Vacation Bible School is popular with local children in the pic on the right.
Ngunyumu Well
Ngunyumu Well financed by Trinity Church with L-R Karen & Tom Jones, Ruth Okello, Donna & Glen Linsley. Ruth tried for years to get the ok for a church plant but she was always denied. Once the well was installed the community welcomed the church plant.
