Story from the Field: The School under the tree is opening doors Among the Orma in Northern Kenya

Jun 4, 2021Stories

Emilie and Suzan has been working among the Orma people in the Northern Kenya for more than 3 years and have tried different strategies to engage this community but it has been difficult to make friendship with the community that is 100 % Muslims but recently they decided to start the school and use it as a platform to reach out the kids and God is using this school to open up doors for them; now parents are willing to bring woods for building the classrooms which will be a great bridge for building relationships.

We came to know that they are in need of school materials and a friend who is a teacher in a Christian school that uses Accelerated Christian Education (A.C.E Curriculum) here in Kigali told us that they have used students materials that can be given to people who
are in ministry, we sent them a carton of students books that are written from a Christian perspectives as a bridge for the Gospel.
