The children of Hope Church dedicated their offerings this year to water purification efforts and the purchasing of books for classrooms in Kenya. They had the wonderful opportunity to meet with Hope Church members, Scott and Claire Rumpsa, and learn about what they are doing through Nuru International in Kenya. The Rumpsas talked about the Kenyan children and their schools that are in great need of all kinds of supplies, especially books. The children have learned how important it is to share our gifts with others and how even small gifts may have a large impact on the lives of others. They are very excited to be able to send funds for the purchasing of books in the classrooms.

Please visit Nuru International’s new website for more information about the organization.
