A Glimpse Into Mama Jean's Home: Meet Stanley


Note:  Sorry for the two day delay in the blog. We had internet issues one evening and power issues the other. I think we are back to normal now. Thank you for your patience!

Stanley is a leader. He is very good at communicating and doesn't fear honesty. He had a rough beginning in life but to see God transform him and show him grace and such an unconditional and beautiful love has been such an honour to see.

Stanley is the cook at Mama Jean's. He also helps to mentor and disciple the boys. He has a huge heart for Mama Jean's and takes pride in his work. He also makes really good chapatis. If you don't know what those are, you need to come to Kenya and try them. You won't be disappointed. :-)

Stanley is married to his wife Everline and has been blessed with six children: five girls and one boy.


A note from Stanley:

I praise God for this previous opportunity He has provided to us to appreciate One 5 Ministries and all who have been helping to change our lives.

One 5 Ministries has been a source of light to these young boys whom had their lives shattered in so many ways by misfortunes.

I thank God for putting this burden in O5M's hearts and your hearts because since we have been working together, things have changed a lot.  The children have realized what their futures are, how they are loved by Jesus, and they are doing their best in all areas.

The bible studies have also brought us all close to our Friend and Father, Jesus. One 5 Ministries directors have done so much through the Holy Spirit to show us how close Jesus really is to us.

I thank each and every one of you who has stood by One 5 Ministries and supported them and us.  We much appreciate. May the Lord God bless you abundantly.

Please pray for Stanley today. Pray for God to continue to use him in His mighty ways, to be a light in the darkness in the communities and especially in his family.
