On May 18th, 2013, Radiance Dance Ministry had a Spring recital titled “Dances of Hope”. The recital was a fund raiser; giving our community an opportunity to donate funds for the Pokot people of Kapenguria, Kenya. This endeavor was realized and funds were collected!
Two months after the recital on August 1st, 2013, I had a stroke. Radiance Dance Ministry was put on hold….
Fast forward eight years!
Radiance Dance may have been put on hold, but we never lost HOPE!
Dear Radiance Dance Friends,
The funds raised from the “Dances of Hope” recital eight years ago, are still there! We just sent Pastor Ronald Chumum money to purchase a generator for Bendera Community Church!
This generator is so very important to Bendera Church; located in Kapenguria, Kenya. While there is a third world electrical grid in the county, the user is required to put in the infrastructure for the grid and then also pay high fees to use electricity.
The generator will give Bendera Church the ability to operate without having to rely on the unpredictable and costly access to electricity.
This generator will be used on Sunday mornings and throughout the week to power sound equipment for worship. The generator will be used to power sound equipment when they go out to remote towns and villages to tell others about the love of Jesus. The generator will be used for their training conferences at Bendera Church. It will also be used for training conferences in the Rift Valley with sister churches. This generator will be used at soccer and volleyball events! These events bring many kids and teens from schools in the area; who will hear about the love of Jesus! As you can see, this little generator will be a mighty tool in the hands of our most powerful God!
Steve and I plan to return to Kapenguria, Kenya early in 2022! Our return will facilitate reconnecting with our brothers and sisters at Bendera Community Church. We will Assess and prioritize their needs, and then report back. We will keep everyone updated!
Meanwhile, enjoy this video! The video is Bendera Church receiving their generator that YOU provided for them! They are dedicating it to the Lord!
There is so much to tell, but for now, with a heart full of gratitude for you all - Steve and I say,
“Asante Sana!”
~Ephesians 3:20
Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or HOPE for!
