Cayacoa Kinship Project: An Update

If you’re an avid reader of the Kinship United newsletter, you’ll remember that a recent issue featured our Cayacoa Kinship Project in the Dominican Republic. The Cayacoa Kinship Project began construction in early December to repair the roof, fix up the walls, and repair some structural work in the church portion. Construction will finish soon. In addition, the Cayacoa Kinship was finally able to purchase musical instruments for their worship services (see pictures below)! The caregivers and orphans at Cayacoa could not be happier or more grateful. We would like to thank our dedicated Cayacoa monthly sponsors for their steadfast Newsletter

Mary’s Story: Asleep in the Graveyard

Can you imagine sleeping in bed with your husband one night and sleeping in a cemetery among gravestones the next? This is the tragic story of Mary, a widow who endured this situation before she found happiness at the Nyasi Kinship Project in Kenya. Mary never imagined that she would become a widow at 35. Her husband was a loving man who worked hard to provide for Mary and their children. Mary enjoyed every day of her marriage. Then came “the Black Saturday.” Heartbroken and Hopeless "Black Saturday" is what Mary calls the day she became a widow. Her husband Newsletter

Hunger: An Ongoing Battle

Since spring of 2020, we've been focused on health and hygiene more than ever. Indeed, disease and illness drastically impact the regions we serve together – they continue to today, and they've been ravaged by illness and lack of medicine long before COVID-19 was common vernacular. Health is an ongoing need with a spotlight upon it in recent times. But health has partly overshadowed another ongoing issue: hunger. When you think of hunger, an oversaturation of statistics probably comes to your mind. You already know how rampant hunger is, not only in impoverished countries, such as those we serve in Newsletter

Christmas Joy in Uganda: How One Kinship Project Gave Back to Their Community

Christmas time is usually filled with happiness, hope, and love. But for a starving child who doesn’t know where their next meal is coming from, Christmas is just another day filled with hunger and fear. The Buloba Kinship Project in Uganda made sure that wasn’t the case for the children in their community this past Christmas. The Kinship Leaders and church members at Buloba hosted an outreach program to help children from the close community who couldn’t afford a special Christmas meal. In the true Kinship fashion of offering people a place they can belong, Kinship Leaders made one big Kinship

Moving Forward into 2022 to Help Even More Orphans and Widows

I’ve prayed for many hours, equal parts hopeful and concerned, for the opportunity to say in this year-end address that 2021 was an easier year than 2020. The end of this year is in sight, but the end of the ongoing struggles of humankind, all around the world, is a faint speck of light, far down the tunnel. In times like these, I’m sure glad our Father is the King! The end of the tunnel is right in reach with His guidance. Only His infinite wisdom can see what the end of the pandemic looks like. And only His strength, Orphan Rescue
