Bread of Life Christian Ministry

Located in the Kwan-Jenga Slum is a Christian school headed by one of our Bible school partners who is also taking courses through the Beacon Program. There is a sharp contrast between the area that borders Kwan-Jenga and the interior.

This is a building just on the edge of Kwan-Jenga. It is where Pastor Keriuki has his main office and a ministry called I-Link. I-Link was put in place as a stepping stone for those who are wanting to come out of their impoverished condition in the slum.

This is the Christian school that Pastor Keriuki established, located in the interior of Kwan-Jenga which I called "The Tin City".

Here Dr. David McDonald had some fun with the kids in the school after they sang some songs for us.

Below are some photos that show some common scenes in Kwan-Jenga slum. Life here is a struggle and it makes me want to do something large-scale to help out.

Above you can see two men pushing a container. This is a common way to transport sewage to a nearby ditch where they dump it. It is in no way sanitized and when it rains sewage flows through the streets.

Here is a portion of street after a rain.

Above is a ditch where much of the filth of the slum ends up. These two are relaxing near their 'stream' where children often play. It's no wonder why disease is common place.

A sign shows the way to a "chemist & clinic". After inquiring about it I found out that it is little more than a shop where they sell some over the counter drugs.

These little children were standing outside of the school where the students performed some songs for us. The boy in the middle had the cutest expressions.
