fbckeller > Isaac (on the left) is the first house dad, and also serves as the pastor for the house church. God has blessed his preaching ministry by bringing dozens of local citizens to salvation. He and his wife Vivien are caring for 12 children in the house directly behind them. House 2 (left) is almost finished and ready for the next set of orphans to come in.

fbckeller > A group picture of all who met to worship the Lord Jesus at Mattaw. God brought new worshippers on this Sunday who testified that God had called them to join this group even from neighboring villages.

fbckeller > Worship service in progress at the Mattaw Children's Village. The service included all the children of Mattaw, plus children and parents coming from the surrounding village.

fbckeller > Moses, holding Georgie, along with his three older children. This is just after church on Sunday, where Moses had testified of his deliverance from alcohol and how God is still moving to convict him of changes he needs to make. Somehow God always lets me make an instant bond with certain men we've met in Kenya. On this trip it was Moses.

fbckeller > The container arriving back in September. Items for the container were donated starting in September of 2006. Needless to say, it took a while to get through the Kenyan red tape. The good news is that all materials got there in good shape, and the container is being used as a storage barn.

fbckeller > Clothes and supplies (being arranged) in the container supplied in large part by members of FBC Keller. Note Kim (missionary) peeking over the edge of the big box!

fbckeller > The playground structure under construction. The children have just gotten out for lunch and are providing some critical oversight. Note the roofs of houses 3, 4, and 5 in the background (along with neighborhood cows!)
