Busy Week at Agape

We have had a busy week at Agape!  As we've discussed before, part of Agape's mission is to rescue street boys off of the street, and this past week four new boys chose to leave the street to join the Agape family; Praise the Lord!  Please be in prayer for these boys as Agape begins to counsel them to determine their family background and experiences on the street.  The street is a scary place and some boys have been severely abused, so please be in prayer that the Lord will begin to heal these broken children.  I've added the boys' photos and names below so that each of you can be praying for them; their photos will look a little rough, because they are taken when they first come off of the street.

Brian David, Age 13

Briton Kuzwa, Age 12

Calvins Okoth Otieno, Age 13

Vincent Otieno, Age 12

We are also really excited that one of our prodigal sons has returned.  Paul Ooko chose to "jump the fence" at Agape last week to go back to the street, but he chose a few days ago to come back to Agape!  Please pray that the Lord will work in his heart to remove the desire to go back to the street.  

Paul Ooko, Age 12

Another part of Agape's mission is to eventually reunite Agape's boys with their families in their home villages.  This past week, Agape successfully reunited five boys with their families!  Please pray that these boys will settle back home quickly with their families, and that their families will treat them well.  

Backstone Mungao, Age 10

Note:  You'll see a whole lot of "O" names listed above; if you'll recall, the Luo tribe in Kenya names their children based upon the events surrounding their birth.  Here's a quick answer key:  

• Otieno:  Born between 7 PM and 11 PM
• Ochieng:  Born between 11 AM and 3 PM
• Omondi:  Born in the morning
