*****UPDATE January 23, 2012*****
Thanks to your offerings, thousands of famine refugees in Turkana, Kenya now have access to clean water! Before this well, the closest water was over 15 miles away.
*****UPDATE October 14, 2011*****
”The first borehole is fully complete. We have installed the water pump and it is now working very well. There will be more than enough water for the whole community.”
God bless you today,
Francis Bii, CRF leader in Kenya

From Miltion Jones, CEO - Christian Relief Fund:
WATER!!!!!!
They are calling it “The Miracle in the Desert.” We hit water in Barwessa. There was no water within twenty miles of this location. It hadn’t rained here in over two years. All the other relief agencies gave up getting water here. But we had some of our kids dying in this community. At great odds, we went through rock and tried a deep well. Even the driller who thought it couldn’t be done turned to God and called it a miracle. Thanks for your help!

Thank you to all who lived the prayer and so generously gave $268,913 to supply food and water to the people of Somalia & Kenya. The entire offering across all services of The Branch for the weekend of August 28th was given to Christian Relief Fund and will go directly towards digging wells and providing food for those suffering in the midst of what some are calling the greatest humanitarian crisis in decades.
