A large portion of our time will be spent helping construct 12 Kizazi homes for families in need. “Kizazi” means generations  in Swahili which is a fitting name, as many of the recipients are grandmothers or single parents raising children. These homes are designed to create lasting change by providing...]]></description><link>https://michellequarterman.wixsite.com/serving-together/post/what-will-we-be-doing-in-kenya</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69a3b4f89d34acb7c437da80</guid><pubDate>Sun, 01 Mar 2026 03:54:27 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/601681_62307616cddb4d49a7af7ad10b17c1aa~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Michelle Quarterman</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Partner With Us: Education &#38; Travel Support]]></title><description><![CDATA[As we continue preparing for our mission to Kenya, we have two specific fundraising goals we’d love to invite you into. First, as we shared in a previous post, we are working to raise $825  to fully sponsor Blessing Kinya’s  year of tuition, uniforms, and school supplies. Because of the quick action of our friend Esther in Kenya, Blessing was able to return to school in January. Now we are stepping in to reimburse those initial expenses and ensure her tuition is fully covered for the year.

At the beginning of the school year in January, while other students were returning to class, Blessing was at home. Her family simply did not have the funds to send her back to school. Our contact in Kenya, Esther, discovered Blessing there and learned of the situation. Not wanting her to miss the school year, Ester stepped in immediately. She paid for Blessing’s uniforms and essential school supplies and spoke with the...]]></description><link>https://michellequarterman.wixsite.com/serving-together/post/help-sponsor-a-year-of-school-for-blessing-kinya</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69a379f7177696dbd3547612</guid><pubDate>Sat, 28 Feb 2026 23:32:06 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/601681_35d4d7ab8a2445d2b8d9786eff90b55b~mv2.jpeg/v1/fit/w_720,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Michelle Quarterman</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Call and the Answer]]></title><description><![CDATA[“You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.” Galatians 5:13  In the Bible, Jesus clearly shows us the will of the Father is for us to serve one another, whether abroad on a mission trip or in our hometowns. (“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me,” Matthew 25:40) However, it’s easy sometimes, for me, who has only...]]></description><link>https://michellequarterman.wixsite.com/serving-together/post/the-call-and-the-answer</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69a36a7b68ed4778a4ea3605</guid><pubDate>Sat, 28 Feb 2026 22:28:25 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/601681_479f0c463c574459841d2b7fd0e0d223~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_201,h_251,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Charlotte Quarterman</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why do I wish to participate?                                                                      ]]></title><description><![CDATA[The short answer is that there is a need, and I want to be the hands and feet of Jesus, as we are all called to be. I am going because I am willing. The longer answer is more complex. I am aware that there are many needs closer to home, and I know I can faithfully serve God right where I am. I also recognize that traveling across the globe is a significant commitment of both time and resources. So why go? One reason I have said yes to this experience is that I feel both called to serve and...]]></description><link>https://michellequarterman.wixsite.com/serving-together/post/why-do-i-wish-to-participate</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69a350eb177696dbd354339c</guid><pubDate>Sat, 28 Feb 2026 20:33:10 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/601681_141f3e276e5d4f2cb42c243e26ef77c0~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Michelle Quarterman</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
