Mission Statement

The mission of Rehema Ministries, (trade name) In Step Foundation, Kenya, is to protect, love, educate, and provide medical and long-term care to the abandoned and orphaned children who come to live with us at In Step Children’s Home in Kenya.

About Us

• We are debt-free.

• We have clear title deed to our 20 acres of land located in the Cherangani Hills region of Kenya.

• We have built a 5,600 sq. ft. building with a 110 ft. veranda that is the main housing. It is over flowing with children. The foundation has been poured for the boys dorm. The first two rooms of our school and playground area have been constructed. This is an ongoing project as the kids grow.

• We tapped into an underground river that now provides us with pure, clean drinking water. We offer free water to the surrounding community every morning. With water we can now grow year round. A visiting team built two greenhouses in the spring of 2011.

• We currently have 105 children as of November 22, 2011. Our average growth is two children per month. We are the largest employer in Sibanga, Kenya, employing widows, single moms, field workers, building teams and security guards.

• We have ongoing construction projects as funds become available. All materials have been purchased for the outside shell and foundations laid for both the medical clinic and boys’ dorm. The medical clinic is up to the ring beam and waiting and the tin sheets for the roof are on site. We are seeking funding to for the inside work, windows, doors, tile, paint, electrical/plumbing and wages for construction workers.

Goals

• That each child would be sponsored to ensure all needs are met. Some of our kids will require lifetime care due to their disabilities; others will hopefully catch our vision and continue what we have started.

• Continue to build family-style dorms so that no child will be turned away due to lack of space.

• Long-term construction goals: cafeteria, preschool, school and technical training center. We hope to build two classrooms a year to keep up with our growing children.

• Become self-sustained by opening to the public the clinic, private school and technical training center.

Arrived November 2011, She was found wandering on the street where the fair had been. She was dressed nice wearing dress shoes and even her ears were pierced with pretty earrings.  She was well taken care of and just didn’t seem like a child that they would just abandoned.
