This video shows Moses Ambunya. Moses was a street boy for almost his entire life. He never knew his father and was abandoned by his mom when he was just a toddler. A homeless man heard him crying and cared for him the best he could while they lived on the street. God certainly had his hand on Moses who was somehow able to get an education and learn English by going to various orphan projects throughout Kenya. By the summer of 2006, he was living on the streets of Kitale, Kenya and found Oasis of Hope. In January of 2007, we had an opening in our boy's home and Moses was placed in that home. He has done remarkably well. He completed the 6th grade this past December and started the 7th grade in January! Here is Moses' story in his own words (sorry, the audio is a bit out of sync with the video....pause the song to hear the audio...it is really amazing):
..Mama Oasis would love all of the friends of Oasis of Hope to go to the Impact Awards page and nominate Oasis of Hope for the impact awards. Let's spread the news about the street children of Kitale, Kenya and let everybody know how they can help us change the lives of these kids for the better!

Here is a photo from the day in July 2007 that Pastor Rick Warren of Saddleback Church (author of Purpose Driven Life) came to visit Oasis of Hope. He is standing with the Oasis of Hope Scouts.
This video shows the Gospel Song and Dance group "Victory Melodies" formed by the boys living in two of our group homes. These are all former "street and glue boys" who now go to school.

I'm no film maker, but here is a video of two of my favorite boys in the whole world...Moses and Johnstone. Both are former street boys...now living in one of Oasis of Hope's group homes. Moses, who is 13, grew up on the streets after being abandoned by his mom as a toddler. Johnstone, 14, spent almost a year on the streets of Kitale after both of his parents died. They both found Oasis of Hope's Children's
Centre...attended regularly and were each transitioned into the group home after about 6 months. Johnstone and Moses are in the same 7th grade class at Kitale Forest Primary School. They are doing great!
One note: In the video, I say "Hi" to them and they respond with "I am fine"....turns out "Hi" isn't really used in Kenya and they think I am saying "How are you?". Look for little John (one of their house brothers) to pop into the screen too. TO HEAR AUDIO CLEARLY...PAUSE THE SONG ABOVE.

These children transitioned into a group home after spending time in the Children's Centre. They are now attending formal school and each home operates as a family with a house parent and 6-7 children.Family Assistance Project: Ten children from Oasis who live with a parent or guardian are now attending formal school. Their families receive supplementary food as well as funding to begin small businesses that will allow them to become self-sufficient.Vocational Training: We have recently begun providing our older teen girls with training from a professional seamstress. This is the first of many career training opportunities we hope to offer. Please visit our website at http://web.mac.com/oasisofhope for more info.

Kimle tanışmak isterim: People with a heart for the cast-off, abandoned and scorned children of the world. People willing to sacrifice some of their own personal comfort and material wealth along with a bit of their time and energy to help these kids. People who understand that if we all gave a little that the world could be a better place for everyone. People who are outraged that children anywhere are allowed to sleep on the streets at night, that children go hungry every day, that there are evil people who sell drugs (like glue) to children. People who can't sleep peacefully in their beds at night knowing that there are over 150 million homeless boys and girls living on the streets of this world with no one to love them and to care for them. Are you one of these people? If so....I want to meet you.

“If there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams, and
he gives you a sign or a wonder, and the sign or the wonder comes to
pass, of which he spoke to you, saying, ‘Let us go after other
gods’-which you have not known-and let us serve them,’ you shall not
listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams, for the
LORD your God is testing you to know whether you love the LORD your God
with all your heart and with all your soul. You shall walk after the
LORD your God and fear Him, and keep His commandments and obey His
voice; you shall serve Him and hold fast to Him. But that prophet or
that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has spoken in
order to turn you away from the LORD your God, who brought you out of
the land of Egypt and redeemed you from the house of bondage, to entice
you from the way in which the LORD your God commanded you to walk. So
you shall put away the evil from your midst.” Deuteronomy 13:1-5 May

Beyond that which words can interpret Or theology can explain The soul feels a "shower of refreshment" That falls like the gentle rain On hearts that are parched with problems And are searching to find the way To somehow attract God's attention Through well-chosen words as they pray, Not knowing that God in His wisdom Can sense all man's worry and woe For there is nothing man can conceal That God does not already know... So kneel in prayer in His presence And you'll find no need to speak For softly in silent communion God grants you the peace that you seek.
I'm sending it back to you! Father, in the Name of Jesus, bless me even while I'm reading this prayer and bless the one that sent this to me in a special way. Open doors in our lives today. Save and set free! Give us a double portion of your Spirit as we take back everything That the devil has stolen: Emotional Health Physical Health Finances Relationships Children Jobs Homes Marriages I cancel every plot, plan and scheme the enemy has devised Against us in the NAME OF JESUS. And I declare: NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST US WILL PROSPER. I speak LIFE into every dead situation. And, I thank you that nothing is over until YOU say it's over! I speak prophetically into our lives and to our situations: Our households are blessed; Our health is blessed; Our marriages are blessed; Our finances are blessed; Our relationships are blessed; Our businesses are blessed; Our jobs are blessed; Our children are blessed; Our grandchildren are blessed; Our parents are blessed; Our siblings are blessed; Our ministries are blessed; Our decisions are blessed Our friends are blessed. Husbands are on the way; Wives are on the way; Mortgages are paid and debts cancelled; Our hearts' desires are on the way; According to YOUR perfect will and plan for our lives. YOU SAID YOU'LL NEVER FORSAKE US! IN JESUS' NAME! AMEN! Say this prayer, and then pass it on to EVERYONE YOU KNOW. Within hours countless people will have prayed for you, and you will have caused a multitude of people to pray to God for each other

THE LOVE OF CHRIST CONSTRAINED US. 2 Corinthians 5:14
How much do you owed my Lord? Has He ever done anything for you? Has He forgiven your sins? Has He covered you with a robe of righteousness? Has He set your feet upon a rock? Has He established your going? Has He prepared heaven for you? Has He prepared you for heaven? Has He written your name in the His book of life? Has He given you countless blessings? Has He laid up for you a store of mercies, which eye hath not seen nor ear heard? Then do something for Jesus worthy of His love. Give not a mere wordy offering to a dying Redeemer. How will you feel when your Master comes, if you have to confess that you did nothing for Him, bu t kept your love shut up, like a stagnant pool, neither flowing forth to His poor or to His work. Out on such love as that! What do men think of a love which never shows itself in action? Why, they say, "Open rebuke is better than secret love." Who will accept a love so weak that it does not actuate you to a single deed of self-denial, of generosity, of heroism, or zeal!
Think how He has loved you, and given Himself for you! Do you know the power of that love? Then let it be like a rushing mighty wind to your soul to sweep out clouds of your worldliness, and clear away the mists of sin. "For Christ's sake" be this the tongue of fire that shall sit upon you: "for Christ's sake" be this the divine rapture, the heavenly afflatus to bear you aloft from earth, the divine spirit that shall make you bold as lions and swift as eagles in your Lord's service. Love should give wings to the feet of service, and strength to the arms of labor. Fixed on God with a constancy that is not to be shaken, resolute to honor Him with a determination that is not to be turned aside, and pressing on with an ardor never to be wearied, let us manifest the constrains of love to Jesus. May the divine load stone draw us heavenward towards itself.
FREEDOM & LIBERTY! "Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ." "Galatians 5:13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another. 14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself." "James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed."
Philosophy, tradition, or being worldly & politically correct will not gain anyone the freedom and liberty that our Lord Jesus Christ made available to us. But when we we love our neighbor as our self, then we gain great freedom, as we in our own way serve each other as God has enabled us.
The feeble, the guilty, the weak, the forlorn,
In coming to Jesus shall not meet with scorn;
But He will receive them, and bless them, and save
From death and destruction, from hell and the grave.
"I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, Always in every
prayer
of mine for you all making request with joy...Being confident
of this
very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you
will perform it
unto the day of Jesus Christ" (Holy Bible - Philippians 1:3-4,6).
"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own
understanding.
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct
thy paths. Be not wise in
thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart
from evil." (Holy Bible - Proverbs 3:5).
May you grow in grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
God bless you,
Stewart
EVERLASTING FLOWERS Luke 8, versus 11 - 15 In the garden of your life, you choose the path you take, Jesus Christ, your Saviour's hand holds the weeding rake. Just let Him lead you daily along His lighted path, Steadily along life's ways, He'll guide you with His staff. If you choose the HARD path, you're not in the garden at all, Please open your ears and heart to the Saviour's call. Don't take the STONY ground, Jesus never promised us a life of ease. He knows its never easy not to do just as you please. Your bound to hit some THORNY patches as your garden starts to grow, Just confess your failures to Him, His love He wants you to know. Then from the GOOD soil, you will be, all fertilized with Himself, You will be a prize bloom shining, not some seeds left on the shelf. For when you bloom and grow, with God's rising sap of love, The seeds of life will scatter with a never-ending source of love

Genuine, spiritual mourning for sin is the work of the Spirit of God. Repentance is too choice a flower to grow in nature's garden. Pearls grow naturally in oysters, but penitence never shows itself in sinners except divine grace works it in them. If you hast one particle of real hatred for sin, God must have given you, for human nature's thorns never produced a single fig. "That which is born of the flesh is flesh."True repentance has a distinct reference to the Savior. When we repent of sin, we must have one eye upon sin and another upon the cross, or it will be better still if we fix both our eyes upon Christ and see our transgressions only, in the light of His love.
True sorrow for sin is eminently practical. No man may say he hates sin, if he lives in it Repentance makes us see the evil of sin, not merely as a theory, but experimentally--as a burnt child dreads fire. We shall be a much afraid of it, as a man who has lately been stopped and robbed is a afraid od the thief upon the highway; and we shall shun it--shun it in everything--not in great things only, but in little things, as men shun little vipers as well as great snakes. True mourning for sin will make us very jealous over our tongue, lest it say a wrong word; we shall be very watchful over our daily actions, lest in anything we offend, and each night we shall close the day with painful confessions of shortcoming, and each morning awaken with anxious prayers, that this day God would hold us up that we may not sin against Him.
Sincere repentance is continual. Believers repent until their dying day. This dropping well is not intermittent. Every other sorrow yields to time, but this dear sorrow grows with our growth, and it is so sweet a bitter, that we thank God we are permitted to enjoy and to suffer it until we enter our eternal rest.
