Hannah is the Child Safety Officer for AIM and also serves on the Nairobi Outreach Team.  This term, she has agreed to take on responsibility for the English Club on alternate Fridays as well as teaching a new, weekly conversation class for the more advanced students. Last Wednesday they discussed the recent transport protests (bus and matatu operators went on strike over fuel costs and the city basically shut down). She also introduced a ‘What do Christians Believe?’ section where one of the topics was the sovereignty of God. Praise God that they responded to this way of learning and engaged in conversation. Hannah had a great time at the Education Support Week held at Rift Valley Academy school. She was able to connect with AIM children in non-crisis situations and equip families in prevention and safe practices by looking at family child safety plans and teaching a ‘how to stay safe’ lesson for children themselves. Pray for AIM families and AIM as an organisation to wisely balance risk and safety and that children would thrive knowing they are loved and cared for.

Hannah is the Child Safety Officer for AIM. The language school where she serves in Kenya restarts next week. This last month over the Easter holiday, she has been praying about whether to continue at the school each Wednesday or to explore opportunities to engage Muslim women in her own neighbourhood, rather than travelling across the busy city. Please pray for her as a couple of new options have come up which may be a good fit. Also, a woman who had previously worked with Hannah is coming to Nairobi to look into outreach work, and some of her time will be at the same language school. Ask that their time together may produce fruitful conversations as they seek the Lord’s guidance.

Hannah is the Child Safety Officer for AIM and recently attended a conference and training course in Malaysia about developing a Child Safety programme. Praise God for this opportunity to think about how to develop policy and procedures in this area, and for the reminder that God cares even more about the safety of our children than we do and equips us to share in his mission. Hannah also teaches at a language school in Nairobi, and the English conversation club recently had great discussions on ‘Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.’ (John 15:13) and ‘God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.’ (Romans 5:8). Pray for her students as they ponder these truths. Over Easter, Hannah will begin as leader of a younger children’s Sunday school group. Ask the Lord to richly bless these relationships with the children, and to encourage her heart as she shares the good news.
