Child of the Week


We've decided that each week, we will highlight a child at In Step. We'll post a picture or two of that particular child, as well as their story and update of them. 

So here's our first Child of the Week:


Brian Wanjala


Brian Wanjala (about age five) came to In Step in May of 2011, along with his sister, Everlyne.  They were taken from an abusive home where Brian received a broken leg (and Everlyne was badly burned).  They found safety and love at In Step.

Earlier this year, the Kenyan courts committed Brian and Everlyne to In Step. They can now officially call it "home".  That was a great day for both of the children and for us at the home. 

Brian is such a happy boy who loves and protects his sister dearly.  When we would take Everlyne to the clinic if she were sick, he would be upset because he wasn't with her to watch over her. He's a great big brother. 

If you wish to sponsor Brian and are in Canada, please contact me at: canada@rehemainstep.com. I will be happy to give you information needed to sponsor him.


Thank you so much,
Meredith
