“I have witnessed children bring more children to church. It reached a time when I thought I am not the right Sunday School teacher, but when we got trained and received The Greatest Journey material I got new ideas on how to teach children and bring them closer to God. Thank you for aiding my life.” Mary

My name is Jane Ogutu, my pastors name is Bishop Jamuaka, my church is Patmos Fellowship Kibera. I thank you for the training and the mailbox Sunday school materials. I am a Sunday school superintendent and I am amazed with the growth I have seen this year and the interest of learning by my Sunday school class. Am now in Explorer lesson 6 and we have grown with a number of children increasing every Sunday that we have increased teachers to assist. The lessons are so interesting to teach and I know by the time we finish our children will be well taught of the word of God. They have so many memory verses they can recite and they love answering the hidden treasure. As a teacher, I am appreciating what God has brought us, may God bless as you continue to prepare more lessons for us. I also thanks the Samaritan purse for the gift boxes which has brought many children to the church. Yours faithfully, Teacher Jane Ogutu

I greet you in the name of Our Lord Jesus. Grace be unto you and peace from God the Father and from Our Lord Jesus Christ. I am grateful to have this opportunity to express my sincere thank on behalf of God Gospel revival ministry because of your support to our church. I am writing to thank you for the gift boxes we received.
In our event we had 200 children invited and they received boxes and the word of God . The following month we saw a tremendous increase in the number of children who attended the Sunday service. We now a have a tune of 312 children. This exercise has witnessed about 5 families joining the church, so we can bear witness that OCC had a great impact on our church. It has also impacted the community surrounding us and they have started sending their children to churches including ours.
May the God Almighty bless every family that stretched their hands to support our children. May God bless you all. Yours in the Lord Rev. Hassan

Greetings in the name that is above all other names the name Jesus the Christ. As spiritual life global ministries, we do thank the OCC Team. For their great love and sacrifice to God’s children.
Our 40 boxes were distributed to children churches in Kakamega. The response was very touching, because no one has ever done that to the children here. The parents of the children were very much touched that one of the parents decided to give out money to build a permanent children Sunday School three roomed house. One parent who is not even born again gave money to roof all the three rooms.This was a historical even to the children and parents.
We hereby as a ministry team do pray for the OCC ministries to be blessed; May God’s favour and grace abound upon you as a team. We also appreciate our OCC Nairobi office for their great volunteering services. God bless you so much. Please let us get the forms earlier so that we can continue to be part of a blessing to our orphanages and Churches. God bless you so much sis Jecinta for your concern and cooperation. Your for the SLGM Bishop Martin Okello

Greeting in his wonderful name, am writing on behalf of Kingdom Worship church appreciating the (270) gift boxes received by our church. I want you to know that they brought a great impact that I had to expand my Sunday school classes. The gift boxes made many children to join our Sunday school.
We also received mail box materials for the training which has helped our classes so much to follow the bible on a systematic way. Most of our children have changed drastically as a result of mailbox lesson, they now know who is their enemy and who is their saviour is. The Sunday school teacher has shown a lot of commitment after the discipleship training and they say they can easily prepare children summons. It is my prayer as we finish Explore lesson 1-10 we will get Explorer lesson 2 especially for our teens.
Therefore we look forward to partner with you in this Ministry to help these children to grow into better citizen in the society. They will one day stand as worriors of Christ. May God bless you and keep you always. Am forever grateful to you. Yours in Christ, Bishop Abel Oyaro

Pastor Sammy Nzau, Divine Destiny Youth Network for Christ and the newly born baby Divine Destiny Church, are very thankful to the Lord and operation Christmas child team and Samaritan Purse for what the Lord has done to them through the gift boxes they received last year.
Last year the Christian youth organization received 250 boxes and distributed them, the results was so tremendous that many children and their parents who never used go to church started coming to their center with need and hunger of being taught the word of God. The effects of these gifts in that community has given birth to a new church in an estate called Kasarani-Mwiki, some 20km from Nairobi city centre. The church is called Divine Destiny Church with 85 children. This year the attendance of children and their parent has increased and they are very grateful to the Lord.
After Sunday School teachers training on discipleship by the Mail Box Club and OCC which was at CFF church hall on 29th February, they started teaching the children on EXPLORER 1(LESSON 1-10) which 50 children aged 7yrs-14yrs attended and 20 teenagers gave their lives to Christ and were baptised though water immersion on Sunday of 11-05-08. They now look forward to organizing their graduation ceremony for their certificates from Mail Box Club. They wish blessings of God to OCC, Samaritan’s Purse, and Mail Box Club for their sacrifice and making this glorious task successful.
