Why would we do an interview about a Christian work in Kenya - on the other side of the world and seemingly unrelated to our own work? Answer, because of the providence of God. One day, not long ago, we had a lady contact us here in the Hudson Valley. This lady worked for Chapel Field School in their finance department. We are friends with Chapel Field. Turns out, her father and brother had a deep interest in this work that we will be talking about. With time we learned about a really important work with abandoned children that is ongoing in Kenya. Specifically, this area is referred to as the Kenyan Highlands, located in central and western parts of Kenya, on the continent of Africa. The children's home was founded by Anne Chege, who continues to this day as the center's Director. Years ago, Anne worked for Barclay's bank for some 30 years. She then started New Hope in the year 2000. The home takes in abandoned orphaned children and provides for them. This gives them hope for a better future. We discuss the home and Anne's involvement. We also discuss how they have built homes for poor grandmothers. This is where Matthew25 ministries comes in (associated with Chapel Field). https://www.matt25ministries.org/ Matthew25 has helped build some of the homes. Right now, there are about 130 children at the New Hope Children's Center Uplands. God is doing a mighty work through this home and it's leaders. Learn more about the home here: https://www.newhopeuplands.org/ Finally, if you want to simply mail a gift to the work using USPS, please use
