Update for Beat the Drum

The second home at Beat the Drum is nearly complete. This home, named Musa, for the young boy who is the main character in the "Beat the Drum" film, will be serving 5 more children in the near future. Construction of the third home, to be named "Chaplain Bob's" in honor of Kathi's adoptive father, should begin soon. Bob McPherson was a pastor and chaplain, and served in the US Navy in WWII, Army Air Corps as a Chaplain in the Korean War, and as an Air Force Chaplain in Vietnam. He died June 1999.

Construction is being held up only by availability of funds. We would prefer to be continuously building until we complete all 10 homes - but due to limited financial support, this has not been possible.

As soon as pictures of the home are received, they will be posted here.

The video from our April trip to Kathi's House is available here. Please have a look. This video runs about 20 minutes and includes pictures from our time with the children at Beat the Drum, on a trip to Lake Nakuru National Park to see the animals, and time of worship at the GOA church led by Pastor John in the village of Maai Mahiu. If any would like a DVD version of this video, please email me at dgruber@partnersforcare.org.
