May charity and nonviolence govern how we treat each other as individuals, within society and in international life.

Asante sana/Erokamano..thank you! In our garden…

With help from local community, children are really taking care of their garden…competing for “best garden”!

A beautiful day.

Amazing, amazing. Today we opened the Peace Garden at St Paul’s School Abwao in Kisumu Kenya. KenGen was there supporting the children with their presence, and with much needed new trees to plant…

From KenGen, Benta, Were (pronounced Where-Eh in Canadian, the Luo word for God), Veronica and Mr O planting trees!

KenGen also donated a mountain of sodas…the children will never forget this day!

Home-made toys…Class 2 line up for sodas…teacher direct traffic…and then, we pray.

Planting the agro-friendly trees:

The students here organize themselves into teams – then get the job done very well.

Happy class:
