1 Dear Friends at All Souls Anglican Church, Receive greetings in the mighty name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I am fine and doing well at School. I hope you are all in good health and that the Lord has continued to bless you. Thanks a lot for the letter you sent to us through the Social work department. We are now back to School and ready to learn after along holiday of three weeks. How long do students in your country break from school? What do they involve themselves with over the school break? I personally like going to my rural area to see my grandparents and relatives. I enjoy going there because there are a number of things to learn from them. At least for a change of environment. Being the last semester of the year, I am trying to work hard in school as we move towards the final grade 10 examinations, which will enable us to move to grade 11 come January I would like to assure you that we are praying for you, and wishing those who are not feeling well quick recovery. May the grace of God be sufficient to them. I appreciate your sponsorship to me and my fellow students. May the Lord God bless you. Silvanus Ouma Nyosro #4427. Dear Friends, First of all, accept my greetings in Jesus name. I am fine and doing well here at school. How is everybody there? It is my great expectations that you are all doing fine and excellent. It is always encouraging to hear from you time after time. I want to thank God for His great protection. It is good to hear that you are all kept in safe hands in spite of life s challenges here and there. I am doing well with my studies and I thank God for he assisted me to improve in my end of 2 nd semester examinations. My Holiday in August was just good and entertaining and very busy. I managed to attend a Christian Union student s conference. In this conference we learnt more about the word of God. The theme was about restoring a Christian generation in our country. A total number of six thousand students attended the conference from all parts of Kenya. This really boosted my faith in Christ. Lastly I want to take this opportunity to thank you once again for your prayers and financial support. May God bless you as He heals those members who are sick in your team. God Bless you, God bless you our Friends at All Souls Anglican Church. You are such a great blessing to us and we are praying for you. Daniel Mwangi Muchiri #4422. Dear Friends at All Souls First receive greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I hope you are well kept and doing fine in Jesus name. Here in Dandora I am doing fine and my family is also doing well.

2 Academically, I am doing well and I am feeling great being at KDSS. I am doing my best to achieve great grades that will take me far. Thank you so much for the letter you sent to us in last week. May God bless you for keeping in touch. About the holiday, it was great. I spent the whole of it here in Dandora because there was a lot of revision I needed to do for the past exam and also for some papers I had to attempt. Here in Dandora there lots of challenges for young people, so I decided to keep myself busy. I take this opportunity to thank you all for playing a key role in my life which is praying for me and my education, and supporting us in our education. May God bless you abundantly as I pray that he may extend your territories. We are praying for you all and thanking God for your sponsorship to us. God bless you abundantly. Elijah Irungu Wanjiru # Dear great friends at All Souls Anglican Church, It is of great joy to receive from you once again through the Social work department. We are all fine and working hard in school. I hope that the Lord God has continued to bless your lives. My family and I are doing well and enjoying the protection of the Lord in our daily lives. Back at school, I am doing my level best. This is my last semester in grade 10, and I am working hard to see to it that I am promoted to grade 11 next year January. During the last holiday in August, I did not stay around Dandora; I just decided to go to upcountry to pay them a visit. We had good time together, worked together, and went to church together. I even remember to have shared with them about our school, the sponsors and about you. They were grateful for the great work you are doing and promised to pray for you. I lastly want to thank you for your prayers and your sponsorship. We all love you for your sacrifice to us. We are praying for you and wishing those who are not feeling well in their bodies quick recovery. May the grace of God continue being sufficient to you, bless you and the work of your hands. Dominick Gicheha Kamama #1422. Dear Friends, How are you doing with your families? I hope you are all doing great and in good health. I am also doing great together with my entire family and all my colleagues at School are doing very well. Thank you again for communicating to us once again. It is great joy to hear from you again and learn that you continue praying for us. We are now back at school and I am doing my level best in class since I am now approaching the end year examinations. During the August school break, I had a chance to visit my grandparents in up is in the Central Province of Kenya.

3 I helped in the weeding of different crops and learnt many other things from my grandparents. I enjoyed myself a lot and get to learn new things like farming and milking a cow. It was a great and wonderful experience that I will never forget. In Dandora we face many challenges here and there, but the Lord has always been on our side. Since we have purposed to learn, we have said no to any disruptions. I want to finally say from the bottom of my heart that I love you all, Thank you so much for your sacrifice to us and the whole of KDS Schools. You have made us proud and we are praying for you. Those of you who are not well, I want to encourage them to feel strong for Paul said that when he was so low, that that is the time he was string. Just be strong in the Lord because his grace is sufficient to you. We love you. Bye Gladys Wanjiru Muthiga # Dear Friends at All souls Anglican Church, Greetings in Jesus name. I hope that you are all fine, I am also fine. My family and I are also doing well. I continue well with my Education. I am encouraged because I did well in the last examination. Thank God for KDS, because we are provided with what we need for our learning. All the subjects we are learning are good, only that some are challenging. But I try to cope with them all. I want to inform you that I went to my rural home over the August Break and it was a really good experience to me. I managed to meet with my uncles, friends and everybody was happy that I got a chance to learn at KDSS. I sincerely thank you for all you have done to help me and all of us at school. I pray that God may increase your blessings. Thank you for sponsoring me and my colleagues. Thank you for your concern. I am praying for those who are sick that God may have mercy upon them and be healed quickly. Yours sponsored child, Ian Irungu Gatuma #442 Dear Sponsors at All Souls Anglican Church, I greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I am fine and my family is fine too. At School I am just doing fine and working hard to achieve my goals because I know without working hard, no achieving of anything. We are tirelessly working hard for very soon we are going to sit for our grade 10 end year examinations.

4 During the month of August, I stayed at Dandora. I was a good holiday. We had some of our extended family members coming to visit us where we had a lot of fun. I am so touched by the fact that some of your members are not feeling well. But we thank God for the great gift of the New Jerusalem for those who are in Christ Jesus. Be encouraged because he is there even those darkest hours. I truly thank you for the Support you are giving to us in our education. Thank you for sponsoring us, thank you Your Sponsored child Simon Muchoki Kahiga #4424. Dear Friends Greetings to you all in Jesus name. I hope you are doing well. As for me and my colleagues, we are doing well at School and even at home. It is my hope that the light of heaven has been your rearguard. I am so happy that you remembered us through the letter you wrote to us during our first week of September. It was encouraging to hear from you once again. I had a great time of three weeks of our holiday. I travelled to upcountry to be with my grandmother, it was such a lovely place. I had a restful and beautiful holiday. I am now working hard in School, bearing in mind that this is my last semester in grade 10. For now I am doing well in school. I improved a lot in the previous exams. Thanks a lot for your prayers. I am praying that God may stretch His hand upon those who are sick and minister to them according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. This world is not our home and soon we are going to go to the beautiful place where there will be no more trouble. I will continue to pray for you. Yours Friend, Winfred Muthoni Mwaniki #4425 Dear Friends at All Souls Anglican Church, Receive my warm greetings from here at KDS. I am doing well and trusting that our brothers and sisters at your Church are doing fine. We are happy to hear that your Church is doing well. I am doing well at School and working hard, since I will be sitting for my grade 8 final examinations in mid November this year. Through your prayers I know I will make it and join KDSS in the year In the month of August I just rested for two weeks after closing school giving way for the GHO medical camp at KDS and then we resumed classes on 26 th August for remedial work. It was actually good and we enjoyed. We officially resumed classes on 3 rd September.

5 Thank you so much for the letter we received this Month. I was glad to know that the students at Wheaton college have now reported back to school for their classes. We are very happy that you are always praying for us and I want to assure you that they are really working. We are sincerely praying for the sick members of your church and asking God to remember them and give them strength because by the stripes of Jesus we are healed. May God bless what you do in your daily lives, and may He give you all the strength that you need. Thank you for the open heart you have to us. You have made us happy and you are one family that we cannot afford to forget. Yes there are many challenges in Dandora, but we have learnt to adjust and we also thank you for your prayers. Thank you for making KDS a home to desire, we love KDS. Say a big JAMBO to everybody and tell them TUNAWAPENDA SANA (we love you so much). God bless you all, God bless Ginger, and God bless Kathy Cathey. Yours loving sponsored child Jecinta Mbula Mueni #2595
