WHAT'S NEW IN KENYA

The construction of new classrooms at Rossholme Education Centre in Kiambiu slum in Nairobi is well on its way. When the new 2026 school year starts in January, there will be six classrooms that have been enlarged to meet government standards and a remodeled library.

Please pray for all the grade 6 Rossholme students to be in good junior secondary schools in January.

And please visit
aflik.org to donate to help with teachers’ salaries, food and books for the 2026 school year.

WHO WE ARE

We are self-supported missioners – and we thank the people who rented our Roton Point unit and our home this past summer. They made it possible for us to spend time in Kenya again - our 20th time there.

We visited friends - and students in Nairobi, Kitale, Nyeri and Meru. Many of our young friends were in high school when we met them. We helped them to attend colleges - and now we’re helping some of their children to go to school – since schools are not free and good paying jobs are very difficult to find.

WHAT'S NEW IN ROWAYTON

The Christmas Gift Show at Rowayton Arts Center is open from now ‘til December 24th. Marilyn has two photos hanging there – one of elephants and the other of rhinos – in beautifully carved frames from Kenya. She also has notecards – some with sunsets seen from Rowayton beaches and others of wildlife taken while on safaris in Kenya.

Marilyn will also make note cards with your selection of any of her photos on this site. Please see Photo Gallery and let her know which photos you’d like on your custom-made cards. Your purchase of her photos and cards will help needy kids in Kenya to go to school.
