Although the school remains in our long-term plan, the most
essential is to begin with the garden, and to do the garden, we first need to
develop a water system for irrigation. This water system will also help in the
present dormitory and the kitchen, and in the future school building.
Initially, we think that we can meet most of the water
requirements from rain gutters and a collection tank. It has been something
that we have talked about for some time, but as you can see by the price
quotations, it costs a little money to put in place, which we before did not
have.
For the very first time since we began the orphanage, in
January(last month) there were enough gifts sent in by many of you so that we not only were
able to feed the children, but have been able to make substantial payments on
their school fees and expenses. Last week we were able to make a bank transfer of $6000 to the orphanage account. This was enough to meet current needs and provide for beginning the water system. Thank you!
As we considered this first time additional money, we have
decided that it was time to move ahead in faith and begin to better prepare for
the future. You can also read about this if you scroll down to the January 19
post. Of course there is not yet enough to bring anything to completion, since
food needs continue and school costs. But we are moving ahead as we did with
building the dormitory—step by step and God provides.
If you are interested, the price quotations for the water system that we received are below. The cost for the labor of the installation of all the tanks, plumbing and rain gutters will also be an additional Ksh 70,000 ($700 US).

If you would like to help the children of the Log Church
Orphanage of Kisii, Kenya, you may make your check out to “The Log Church” and
write “Orphans” on the memo line.
Send it to:

We now need to pay a wire transfer fee with every payment,
which amounts to $50 each time, but other than that, your donated money will be
used only for purchasing food, clothing, schooling, and other necessities of
living. We wait until we have $4000-$5000 before we make the bank transfer to
make each transfer more economical. Nothing is held back or diverted for any
other purpose. Thanks!
