This past Sunday was Baby Centre Sunday at Ngata AGC. The service began at 9:15 a.m. and lasted until 1:20 p.m., followed by a gathering at Baby Centre for a light lunch and tour. There were 5 different churches represented as well as some governmental offices.
During the church service a harambe was held, which is a fundraiser, for Baby Centre. Over Kshs 180,000/= was raised for operations.
We were also privileged to have the Senator of Nakuru county attend, Honorable Lisa Chelule. She is a remarkable women that plans on getting involved in a official capacity on behalf of Baby Centre.

This Sunday was prompted by a new group of individuals that are called Champions of Baby Centre. This is a group of about 12 individuals, from Nakuru, Nairobi and many other towns, that have a heart and passion for these babies and go all over and speak on behalf of Baby Centre.

A lot of our staff worked Sunday and so some had their children with them. We wanted to pass along this photo. Some of you may remember one of our first children here at Baby Centre, Lucy. Well, this is Lucy today (the tallest child in the blue and white dress)! She is just beautiful! She is pictured below with her siblings and mom, Maorine. We love seeing the children as they grow up and how they are getting along.
