More than 10 million people are facing starvation in the East African nations of Kenya, Somalia, Djibouti and Ethiopia. Drought is the primary cause.

SIM Kenya's emergency relief project will help direct funds to those with greatest needs during this crisis. Funds are channeled to local church and ministry partners of SIM Kenya and will strategically assist with food, water, and medicine.

Pray

• for children who are too weak to run and play
• for parents watching their children suffer
• for local churches who are stepping into the crisis with courage and sacrifice, even as they too are suffering
• for SIM workers who come alongside with timely words and action
• for governments to fulfill their responsibilities towards their citizens
• for Jesus Christ to be present and glorified in every act of compassion
