Dear Friends and Partners in Ministry,

Thank you so much for transitioning with us to New Horizons Foundation. As the website is being developed, the board has put thought and prayer into the different statements defining this ministry. Our MISSION – to share the transforming love and favor of God with the children in our care by nurturing them (providing physical, spiritual, and emotional care) and empowering them through education to discover their God-given gifts and purpose as contributing members of their communities and ambassadors of Christ’s love. Our VISION – to become a source of hope, healing, and restoration for families through the knowledge of Christ’s deep love and the empowerment of education. Thank you for making this possible through your prayers and financial donations.

School is in full swing! Classes one through three are sharing the multipurpose hall. The preschool classes continue to meet in three huts adjacent to the hall. The need for an actual school building is great as the Department of Education has stated that the current classroom arrangements do not meet the standards required. We are trusting God for the approximately $60,000 necessary for a building to accommodate preschool through grade six. If you would be interested in making a donation specifically to this project, you can do so at the project link shown below. You will be given the option to donate to the general fund or school building fund.

In preparing the information for the website the board also had to grapple with the question of why ROCK Ministries and Malava Christian Academy – The structure and stability we are able to provide by having the children’s home is vital to the success of the children in our care… The addition of Malava Christian Academy has been a step taken to not only meet a need in the community but expand this influence beyond the walls of the children’s home. There continue to be so many vulnerable children among us that need to be cared for, empowered, and shown the love of Christ. We have witnessed the impact of a loving, caring, and safe community on children and their families, even the families of our staff, and are excited to be able to continue to support this vision, and expand this ministry, increasing ROCK Ministries International’s influence as a source of hope, healing, and restoration for families in Malava, Kenya, and beyond.

And this all started 20 years ago by a woman who felt the call of God to leave everything behind because her heart was broken.
Grace and peace, Kyon and Cindy
