The Lord’s Ministries group is lead by Pastor Jonathan Mudenyo and covers 45 churches, the Bridgeway Academy, and the Orphanage and spans an area roughly 1/6^th of Kenya and into Tanzania and Uganda.  Pastors George (Mount Elgon) is knowledgeable in prescription drugs and health, Moses (Kitale) is also a teacher, Samuel (Kimilili) is an administrator, and Ken (Kitale) runs the church on the orphanage grounds, are key advisors to the Orphanage.

                                                                                                                                                                                                         Here is a brief history of how they came to start the Orphanage in the words of Pastor Moses…..  One of the main goals and vision that God has given us as a ministry is to reach out to the hurting world with the Word and acts of Compassion. God has clearly given us a ministry to the villages, to the fatherless and to the hurting. It was while we were ministering in various parts of the remote areas of the nation that we encountered many people who had no hope, and could only see hope in us. Its from this perspective that we begun praying and believing God for an Orphanage, A house of Hope for the children.  This Vision came into fulfillment in Dec 2005 when we begun the Orphanage.  Currently we have children who have benefited from this Orphanage, having come in at a time when they did not have hope and their health situation was very poor. Right now, we can boast of having healthy children who have had an opportunity to go to school, and enjoy 3 meals a day of balanced diet, medical check up/ screening regularly. Generally, all the children have improved in their performance in School.              

                                                                                                                                                                                                           The Children range from 3 to 17 yrs. old number 40 as of January, 2009.  Every one of the children had at least one parent who died from AIDS or other illness.  AIDS and malaria are the most common killers.  The children are all in good health.  Every child attends school and has 3 meals a day.  They do not speak English very much but they are learning it in school.  They seem to act like a big family.  The older kids help the younger ones, they eat together, study together, and they all have some chores before and after school.  Pastor Moses, a teacher, says they are improving in school and some are doing exceptionally well.  It is easy to get attached and it is amazing to see them year after year and watch them grow and develop.  I am glad that God worked to expand the residence to 40 children but it is also easy to get somber thinking of how many children are on the streets or being neglected.  I heard an estimate that in this region there are 10,000 orphans and on 1000 are safely in orphanages or private homes.  The children at this home are blessed.
