It has been very encouraging to see the developments here at
Omwabini Rescue Steps Orphanage and school since our time here three years ago.
James, Mama Mary and all are making great strides toward preparing the orphans
for life outside of the orphanage both with a quality education and a sound
Christian upbringing. Three years ago there was only an elementary school and an
incomplete High school structure with no high school classes.

Thanks to
answered prayers and the very generous support of many of you they now have
desks, government required uniforms, high school facilities and food in their
bellies.
A quick tour of the high school late Saturday shows the new desks that have replaced the small plastic serving tables they were using earlier
The last time we were here Omwabini cared for about 300 orphans. That
number has grown some but an encouraging
aspect is that now about 15 percent of their of their student population are fee paying students
They now have
214 high school students and 216 the elementary grades students. The latest developments sppe well of the quality of education provided here and their
push toward more sustainability.
