Almost Done!

A journey of a thousand steps begins with just one step. That has been the journey for Inspiration Centre building project. It’s more than one year and six months since we started the construction for our Centre. Our needs have been met tremendously through the generous gifts from friends and partners around the world. I can confidently say that 95% of the work is done! We are working on the final details like polishing the terrazzo, painting the walls, welding grills around the water tank, erecting a cross in front of the building and decorating the building on the outside.

Jabezzi

October was an amazing month for Jaime and myself. We finally got the opportunity to receive our daughter Jabezzi. Her name is derived from Jabez in 1st chronicles 4:9-10.Our prayer was to deliver her naturally because our first son was delivered through Cesarean Section. This was not well received by the doctors who referred to the pregnancy as “high risk”. In fact, Jaime was scheduled for a cesarean section just 5 days after her due date. We asked friends and family to pray with us for God’s will to be manifested. As a pastor and a person who encourages people everyday, my faith was put to test. I had to trust that God was with us no matter what the outcome seemed to be!

God was evidently with us, 3 days before Jaime’s due date, our daughter Jabezzi was delivered naturally! No epidural! No pitocin! No cesarean section!The doctors called it V-back, but I call it victory!

Thank you for all your prayers during the pregnancy and during the labor!

The guest rooms are ready

After a lot of work and team effort, we can confidently say that Inspiration Centre can accommodate short term guests/missionaries visiting Inspiration Centre. This summer we had an opportunity to work with a team from Grand Junction in painting the accommodation rooms. Thank you again for sparing and spending your summer time and resources at Inspiration Centre.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We are looking forward to completing the rooftop and the cross in front of the building. The remaining part of the entire building needs $15,000 to complete.

Back to the Fourth Floor

We are back again to the construction process of Inspiration Centre building. All our energy has been directed to the fourth floor of the building. We have been able to do more plaster work, put grills, doors, windows and electrical wiring. We are still working on the tiles for the floors, paint and terrazzo.

Art Camp

2018 was our tenth anniversary since we started hosting Art Camps in conjunction with other Churches, organizations and different groups of people. On this anniversary, we were privileged to have Bear Valley Church, Nexus, Friends from Pennsylvania, our staff and kids from our community. Our camp’s theme was “Ahsante” (Thankful).

We incorporated typical kids with special needs kids and their care givers. We hope that our communities will have a different perception and reduce the stigma associated with people with special needs.

As always, we are grateful for your prayers and financial support that has made all these possible. Send us an email if you wish to get connected with what we are doing: inspirationcentremathare@gmail.com

 

Working on the rooftop

March has been a blessing month for our city Nairobi. We’ve received plenty of rains which were long overdue. We have also experienced flooding in different parts of the Country and lots of traffic jam in the city

At our Church building, we are working on the rooftop where water tanks are housed. We are excited to see the progress as we build this structure one step at a time. As usual, your prayers and support of any kind is always welcomed. Get in touch with us through: inspirationcentremathare@gmail.com.
