Josephat also says he is in class two (2) of Milimani primary school now.  And the name of his village is called Yamo.

Your sponsored child thanks you for being his sponsor.

Josephat requests you to pray for his sister and her children.  He says he will pray for you too.

  1. When did you first sponsor Josephat? I sponsored Jackson (in Kenya) in June and still haven't heard anything. Just curious how long it took for you to receive this first letter.

    Also - which project is he at? My Jackson is at KE 200

  2. That was a FAST letter! Wow!

    So, reading this, do you think he has another older sister? I can't imagine that his 15 year old sister already has 2 children, though it is possible.
