Yesterday evening I received some INCREDIBLE news - the little boy I told you all about who went missing (Clinton) has BEEN FOUND - alive and much better off than he was before!

Thank you Jesus for hearing our prayers - thanks to those who have prayed for him - after we prayed on Tuesday I did feel lighter and at peace about the situation - read on to find out what happened to Clinton (direct from the Comic Relief project) - bear in mind that anything could have happened to him - street children are regulary abused, beaten, harrassed by police as they are so vulnerable:

'Clinton was picked from the streets on the same evening that the Comic Relief Team left Kisumu, on Sunday the 10th of August 2008. He is now admitted at Ezra Gumbe Primary School, within Kisumu city.

These are further details:
He was picked by a shopper who had since been seeing her/ and whom he was used to helping carry small shopping from the supermarket within the town.
The person who picked him is female and is a teacher at Ezra Gumbe Primary School
The teacher gave him some school uniform belonging to her sons to use for the time being He is currently living with the teacher who also has children
Today we managed to meet him at school with the pupils and teachers, and have his photos at school. '
Something like this is REALLY unusual - most people do not open their homes to street kids - this is the reason why the project was set up in the first place! When you are feeling so helpless in a situation and there is nothing you can do but pray - Jesus can do the impossible :)

I hope this encourages you :)

Lots of love,
