A Heart for Kenya

Sunday was a special day for me. After mass, I scrambled around to get the house looking nice for a special guest - my friend Aven. Aven is a really neat girl. She and I have been working together for almost two years. She has an awesome testimony - she came out of darkness or drugs and alchohol into God's light. Now Jesus is calling her to Kenya. She has had a heart for Africa her whole life, even before she became a Christian. Last year she went on a short term missions trip to Kenya, and it was really hard for her to come back. Now Rainbow Missions is opening up a group home, and it is the desire of her heart to be there. She is going to leave at the end of the summer, and she will be gone for a year.

Anyway, last year Lee and were able to help her just a little bit financially, but I really wanted to help her out this year. So I had an Idea. We got together and designed business cards and a webpage. Not a huge financial investment on my part, but something that can make a difference. Later this spring, I am also going to do an Avon fundraiser for her. I have never done an official fundraiser before, but I feel like its something I may be called to do later to help other people, too.

Here's her new webpage - aheartforkenya.info
