PRAY FOR THE CHILDREN OF KENYA



It pains to see children running as fast as they can away from skirmishes. It pains to see children wet, cold and hungry. Something is really wrong with that picture. Children are supposed to be protected from all of these. They are supposed to feel safe.

As this stalemate takes on different phases, the children and women of Kenya are the most affected. There's a big number of children who don't know where their parents are.Others have become orphans. While others have been hurt in this period. We need to pray for the children.
A number of these children have witnessed their parents killed while others watched as their mothers and sisters got raped. What are in the minds of these little ones as they take in all this? This is an important question.This is because they are children today and adults tomorrow. Is this how we are teaching them to handle disagreements? What tells us as a Kenyan society these children won't be tomorrow's attackers? Pray for these children. Pray that they will grow up knowing dialogue, forgiveness and tolerance.

Pray for those who are trying to report back to school but cannot.Pray for those who have already gone back to school.Pray for calm in their hearts.

Dr. Paul E. Freed founded Trans World Radio (TWR) an international broadcasting Network registered in Kenya in 1952. TWR-Kenya was the second TWR operation in Africa after the station in Swaziland. The Kenyan office and production center was established in 1976 by the late Rev. Stephen Boakye-Yiadom to prepare for the anticipated expansion of the ministry. Listeners in over 160 countries can hear God’s word taught in more than 200 languages and dialects whose impact is truly incredible. Today over 2 million letters, faxes, e-mails and phone messages are received each year. The programs not only cater to the spiritual aspect of man but also critically look at the social, which include women and/in development, children’s circumstances, health including HIV/AIDS/STI, environmental, agricultural, peace and conflict resolution issues among others. TWR-Kenya produces over 32 different program titles with over 60 hours of programming each week. Every week 133 programmes are dispatched from our office to 10 stations in addition to Africa Regional Office and Swaziland. The other stations are in different parts of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzanian.
