Faith in Action: Mercy House, Kenya




I know, I am probably overwhelming you all with causes.

This one is time sensitive.

Join me on Nov 3rd.  Give $3. That's it.  Come back on Dec. 3rd. Give $3.

That's less than a latte at Starbucks.

Why?

It's for the Mercy House in Kenya, Africa.
The Mercy House exists to provide alternative options for pregnant girls living in the streets of Kenya. The Mercy House will aid them in nutrition, housing, prenatal care, counseling, Biblical teaching and job skills for sustainable living. 
A maternity house? Why?
The odds aren't in her favor. She lives in a country where rape happens every day, all day long. By neighbors, fathers, brothers, even policeman...The majority of these crimes aren't reported. But she bares the scars, inside and out, and the stigma for the rest of her life.
 Read Maureen's story of how Compassion International changed her life and how she is using this Maternity House to change the lives of others here.

Want to see a little of what life is like in the slums of Kenya?  Watch this video.




So, who is with me?  Will you join me and give just $3?  Put your faith in action.
