For years Robert Gutwa and his team had dreamt of using this property to serve their local community and now that dream has become a reality. With the completion of new buildings and the establishment of new enterprises, like the hen farm, the property officially opened in 2019. The Grace Community Center (GCC) is registered with the local government as a community based orgnaization (CBO).
The Grace Community Center property currently contains several older buildings, a new larger building, large garden, hen farm, and market stall to sell eggs, produce and items created by the sewing enterprise. The center also provides safe open spaces for community gatherings and children's games. The 2019 August Camp for 100 children was successfully held on this property (with the garden providing much of the food!). Thanks to a visiting mission team from Mission Oppotunities Short Term (MOST Ministries), a special day of testing and distributing eyeglasses was also held at GCC.
GCC was established just in time to support the community when the pandemic first struck in 2020 and has played a pivotal role ever since. The egg farm provides eggs with important nutrients for at-risk families and the sewing enterprise has provided over 2,000 masks and 1,000 washable feminine hygiene kits for school girls.
We are so very thankful that the Covid vaccine has reached Kisii, Kenya. This will hopefully bring relief to many,
