About Our Auction
Since 1987, Burke Presbyterian Church and Kibwezi Bethel Church have built a partnership based upon mutual trust, faith, and respect. Since the churches have much to give each other and Jesus calls us to love one another — through letters and visits, we developed a list of ways we could assist one another in achieving God’s purpose.
In East Africa, where educational opportunity is limited, The Presbyterian Church of East Africa (PCEA) has made the church and the vocational school a primary mission focus in this arid land of subsistence farming and survival living. We have joined the PCEA in providing resources for the church and technical school. More recently, we have to our mission program financial support for the needs of 17 Nendeni (bush) churches, for the hiring of 3 of 6 full-time evangelists, provision of daily meals, and construction and curriculum support for six preschools. During this time of drought, we have added food support for those in need in the community, responsibly managed by the Pastor in Kibwezi.
Although this silent auction is directed to the above mission projects, it is important to note that we also provide financial assistance, guidance, and prayer for the Burke/Kibwezi Tumaini Orphan Care Project (TOCP). The TOCP supports the educational and personal needs of 35 Kenyan orphans each year. Their extended families receive beans and maize food support from the Kenyan social worker who we employ to manage the project. Water-borne disease is prevalent; we supply clean water systems to enhance health and well-being. The TOCP is primarily supported by our annual Mother’s Day appeal. We appreciate BPC's continued support.
