Kenya Community Service Day 

Our 410 Bridge team in Kenya held their first-ever Community Service Day on April 8th in the community of Tumutumu. This was a special time for the 410 Bridge staff to give back to the community, bond with the local Leadership Council, and create lasting relationships with the community members.  

The 410 Bridge team first distributed and helped plant avocado seedlings to over 1,200 households in the community. They encourage the community to plant more avocado fruit as it is gaining popularity not only locally but also for export. This is an exciting opportunity for these families!

The team also planted seedlings at Tumutumu Primary School, a 410 Bridge Foundations for Farming Training demonstration farm, and a community church. Next, the team joined community members in dedicating Mzee Kabinga’s new house. The Tumutumu Church Leaders Fellowship had been assisting him with meeting some of his basic needs and now, through 410 Bridge, built him a new house since his old house was in such disrepair. This was a big blessing to the respected 80-year-old man who still farms in the community.  

Please join us in continuing to pray for the community of Tumutumu as well as our amazing 410 Bridge staff in Kenya! Their passion for the Lord and their country of Kenya is to be admired.

The villages of Makantaka, Makantakita, Company Crick, Dakban, Guadalupe, Kansas City, Betania, Angloamerica, and La Esperanza have been hit especially hard. Over 80 families in each village are now facing an uncertain future.

This isn’t the first time we’ve seen flooding in this region—but those on the ground are calling this situation uniquely devastating.

Homes are unlivable. Crops are gone. Hunger is growing.

The Story of Edy Josué Ruiz

When Edy Josué Ruiz arrived at the rehabilitation center in 2018, his life was marked by loneliness and the pain of his father’s absence. He didn’t speak, didn’t play, and found refuge in silence. But God had a plan for him.

The rehabilitation center provided the support he needed through speech therapy, motor skills development, and psychological counseling. However, it was the love and faith he encountered there that truly transformed his heart. Thanks to the therapists and their dedication, Edy began to open up—he learned to speak, to smile, and most importantly, to find peace through his faith in Jesus.

Community leaders also played a key role in Edy and his mother’s journey. Through their constant support, prayers, and encouragement, they offered spiritual and emotional strength. The community became a fundamental pillar in his transformation.

The Woman Who Prayed Over Her Rabbits—And Watched Them Multiply

In the highlands of La Nueva Independencia, lives Doña Everarda Carrillo Velasquez, a 67-year-old woman whose life has been shaped by hard work, unshakable faith, and a deep love for the land. For thirty-five years, she stood faithfully by her husband, who lived with Alzheimer’s for fourteen of them. Today, with her feet rooted in the soil and her heart lifted to God, Everarda keeps moving forward. 

“God gives me strength,” she says with a conviction that comes from deep within. 

Last year, Doña Florinda Jimenez, a member of the Leadership Council, encouraged Everarda and her son to join a Foundations for Farming course. At first, she hesitated “Me? In an agriculture course?” but something stirred in her heart, and she decided to try. During the training, she visited a farm focused on animal husbandry, and something clicked. She was especially drawn to rabbit farming, and from that moment, she felt called to raise animals herself.
