OUR MITS GIVING STORIES | Winn Thomas

Growing up at Otter Creek Church, I had heard of MITS for most of my life.

In 2016, I was able to visit for the first time and meet the beautiful staff and students. During this first visit, I met Quinter, a student with a young daughter named Shania. I fell in love with these two and was honored to become their sponsor.

This past summer, I spent three months at MITS. I often say that God holds MITS in His hand and close to His heart. God is actively working through the staff and students at MITS and you can witness His glory on a daily basis.

Seeing how MITS has walked alongside this young mother and daughter has been a powerful experience. Quinter and Shania are constantly surrounded by loving staff who wish to see them succeed. I am so thankful God placed MITS in Quinter and Shania’s paths and I am humbled to be a small part of their journey.

Why I Sponsor - Jody and Hillary

7/24/2015

0 Comments

 
We asked MITS sponsor, Jody, why she and her family have chosen to support the life and education of Paul, a MITS student. Here's what she said:

"My daughter, Hillary, and I have sponsored Paul Njorge since 2012. We meet Paul on a two-week trip to MITS with the University Church Youth Group. Paul was the first student I met when we arrived in Nairobi. He decided to sit by me on the bus as we traveled from the airport to Kamulu. All I wanted to do was rest after the long flight, but Paul had other ideas. We talked the entire bus ride and that was all it took for me to fall in love with this young man. At the end of the second week, I was honored to baptize Paul. We stayed in touch during the following year through letters. The following year Hillary returned for another two-week trip. During that trip she got to spend a lot of time with Paul, and he even joined her for a day in the city for her 16th birthday. The two share a very special bond and truly consider each other as family. After seeing how such a small financial contribution can change a life, I can't imagine not sponsoring."

Why I Sponsor - Leigh Anne

We asked MITS sponsor, Leigh Anne, why she and her family have chosen to support the life and education of Zera, a MITS student. Here's what she said:

"My family has sponsored Zera Atieno since Summer 2014. I met Zera when I was teaching at MITS during the 2014 summer break. She was in my middle level math and library classes and I fell in love with her immediately. My family has always loved helping people, but sponsoring Zera is more personal than just helping someone-we get to be a part of her life. We have the opportunity to help MITS provide her with a future. We feel so blessed to be able to watch her grow and learn, especially in her relationship with Christ. The pride we feel in Zera and her accomplishments is indescribable."
