CHILDREN OF THE LOG CHURCH ORPHANAGE - PAGE 8

Peter Ontiri – 11 year-old boy found on the street in 2017

While were we ministering at Tabaka town with evangelism team, on our way back home we met elderly street boys their ages ranging between 19 to 21 thoroughly and carelessly beating one of their colleague who was this boy Peter Ontiri. We all stopped there and made inquiries what the problem was.

They all said that this boy Peter was disclosing their evil secrets how they snatch pedestrians’ phones and other items in the evening times when it is dark and the streets are not so busy. They all shouted in the loudest voice with anger, “We must kill peter tonight!!! We swear that he must be dead by tomorrow” they continued shouting!!

We feared so much and this forced us to spend there 3 hours begging them not to harm Peter in any way but none of them could listen to our advice. Their temper was too high despite the people of that area intervening to cause them change mind of killing their colleague-a young boy.

Back in the year 2016 the same boys had killed one of their colleagues in the same manner of petty arguments. We asked for one volunteer to take Peter to him/her home as a means of protecting him and safe his life but everyone around feared to take a street boy!! Eventually we were the only one who had courage to come with Peter in the orphanage taking risk of helping him but being encouraged in our hearts through the previous street kids we had adopted that Peter also might be a good boy in a wrong place.

Right now Peter is in the safe hands of God and has never done any crime for this long period we have stayed with him in the orphanage facility. We did guidance and counseling on the first day we brought him in the orphanage and took him to school and we can testify that Peter behaves very well and he is a very polite boy. Peter likes playing football and dancing in church. He is determined to use his dancing gift in giving God Glory. Peter says that he will live to serve God who saved him from a deadly street. God bless Pastor Donald and Vivian for starting this orphanage.

 

Kevin Ombati – 13 year-old boy found in the street in 2018

We had a crusade and evangelism program at Ogembo town 2018 April. The meetings went on successfully and many people were being convicted with the word of God daily. We had a pulpit where ministers and choirs stood during the program.

It was something shocking that this young boy Kevin at the age of ten he could lit a cigarette and boldly came up to the pulpit to join our choir in singing, wanting to dance with the choir of the church while taking cigarette at the same time!!

All the ushers could try to block him from the alter of God but they could find very hard time to manage him! He made it a trend daily as we entered into crusade services!! On the last day he came somehow well-dressed but now without cigarettes at all! Pastor Vincent started praying for those people who wanted to give their lives to Christ. Kevin was the first one to step on the pulpit for prayers!!

Then pastor Vincent said “I have been led by the holy spirit to break the evil spirit of drug abuse in this young boy Kevin, and from this time forward the life of this boy must change for good in Jesus name!!! No more drug abuse.”

Everyone was quite in the meeting!! Then Pastor Vincent asked the audience whether the parents of Kevin were present at the crusade grounds. That is when we realized that Kevin was a street boy and his background was not known by anyone. After prayer pastor Vincent said “we will adopt this boy in our orphanage and teach him the ways of God.”

There crowd clapped for that and when we ended the crusade we came with Kevin to our orphanage. This boy is grateful and thankful to God for the amazing things he did to him after accepting salvation. He is free from drug abuse and he really sympathizes with those who take such drugs.

Currently Kevin is the choir trainer of junior youth and he is very committed in the work of God, He has a passion of being a pastor through the call of God so that he can change more lives including street children who are addict to drug abuse. Kevin is congratulating the Log church for their wonderful support through Pastor Donald and his dear wife Vivian. God bless everyone who gives to support us.
