SeedPower-Turkana Outreach

 

Turkana County lies to the North Western part of Kenya.

Turkana has been for a long time in the History of Kenya overwhelmed with wars and conflicts, banditry, hunger, famine and drought. The conflict between Turkana and Pokot has led to lots of fear in the region and many children, women and men have lost their lives and properties. These conflicts have led to many deaths on a daily basis.

People in this region not only die from conflicts and wars but also due to lack of food, water and shelter. Most of them live in open houses made of sticks, leaves of a tree and mud.

Children don’t go to school due to these conflicts and some of them who get lucky enough to go get to walk for miles to reach a school.

It has been in our dream and prayer as SeedPower to reach out to Turkana in whichever way we could with clothes, food and other basic necessities. SeedPower was privileged in the past month to reach out to Turkana with dry food. We shared about our passion to reach out to Turkana and a few business guys gave us some support to carry out the outreach.

We carried out a four day outreach in 3 different places of Turkana namely: Lokichar, Lokapii and Kalong’iro. 680 families were reached out on this trip.

Our outreach comprised of distributing dry food in groups and door to door outreach with food, and sharing the Good News about Jesus Christ with them. Our group was accompanied by Pastor William, Pastor Elijah and Pastor Simon from Turkana.

This trip was very much successful and many lives were impacted.
