Maasai thankful for drought relief
June 19th, 2009
Lynn and Dori Cazier (Kenya-Maasai team) recently passed along the grateful thanks of the Maasai people who were blessed by relief gifts from the team’s American partners. The people held a special service of thanks, presenting gifts of beadwork to the CMF team members. The Maasai church leaders distributed the food through 21 churches to an estimated 27,000 people.
The Caziers report that this drought has been even harder on the people than the one in 2006 because food prices have doubled and, in some cases, even tripled. Also, the large number of cows that died in 2006 have never been completely replaced. There has been some rain recently, but it is very spotty, and the new green grass that springs up is quickly over-grazed. Please continue to pray for rain in Kenya.
