The Kuwaa people cried for help for over 20 years. There was no whining or complaining for the suffering they endured at the hands of the brutal rebel groups. All they wanted was help to help themselves. They had lost all hope. Their prayer finally reached the ears of Jensen Seyenkulo and Dick Thompson in the U.S.A. In 2009 the Kuwaa Mission was founded to help them help themselves. People soon got involved. Stan Olsen and Cindy Watkins Ellis volunteered. This dry season Stan is going back the end of Nov. Stan is serving as the CEO and project manager over work projects. He is going over to review the work being done and to help the people begin the construction of the Kondesu Medical Clinic. The clinic will serve 5 or 6 towns.
In the past few years the mission provided the means for wells to be dug or restored. Schools and school children received educational materials and supplies. Midwives and small town clinics received medical supplies. Workshops on various topics have been conducted for the different leaders. Scholarships were provided for 3 evangelists and 1 nursing student.
Let us encourage one another to pray for The Kuwaa people and the Kuwaa Mission that God continues to help them see the light and find hope, that God continues to bless the mission to be a blessing to the Kuwaa people, that God continues providing funds and volunteers. And that God grant Stan safe travels, blesses his work, and keeps his wife, Sally.

Let us encourage one another to give thanks to our God for everything and praise him for his generosity. He is our very present help in trouble and our stay in life. He is with us in the day time and at night.
