In mid-June, the largest Lahash travel team will travel to Kenya to connect with children and ministry leaders across East Africa for our 9th biennial conference! We had a travel training day at the Lahash Portland office, including making an African lunch together.

This year's conference focuses on the theme "God's Global Family" and will feature trainings taught by both Lahash staff, volunteers, and partner ministries, as well as times of worship, connection, and refreshment throughout the week.

"The most fulfilling thing about this work is partnering with East African ministries that love Jesus and care deeply for their communities. I think it's a beautiful picture of what the global church looks like in action, and I've gained a fuller picture of who God is by serving alongside my friends in East Africa.

"The most rewarding part of my work with Lahash is seeing the lives of these children and students truly transformed.

When I traveled to Rwanda in 2019, I met one of our students, Anny, and she was still maturing and figuring out who she was. I got to visit with her when we traveled to Rwanda in 2023, and it was such a joy to see how she had blossomed and was excited to make an impact on the world around her after completing her high school degree and pursuing higher education in psychology!" -Jessica, Administrative Assistant

New story! lahash.org/stories! Read about our recent student retreat in Kenya!

“The part of the retreat that impacted me the most was the time of prayer and reflection on the Word of God. During that time, I had the opportunity to be quiet, think deeply about my life, and reflect on how I live my faith every day. It helped me feel closer to God and realize the areas in my life where I need to improve.” -Emmanuel, Stand With Students scholar.

Both Glory and her sponsor live with a disability, but that hasn’t stopped either of them from living a life of purpose, compassion, and joy. Jessica Ebersole shares her experience reuniting with her sponsored child, Glory, in Tanzania! Read more on the blog about Jessica & Glory's friendship!

A small child of five years old arrived with mismatched shoes on her feet. She had with her a humble bedsheet and a plastic cup. Timidly, the girl named Glory began boarding school with very little of her own. She was welcomed by a local ministry dedicated to supporting children with Albinism. Glor...

Moved by the resilience of local ministries providing holistic care to vulnerable children in Africa, Lahash board member Maxwell Olwa and his son witnessed the need to partner with these life-changing efforts. "The journey to East Africa quickly became more than a trip; it was an experience that wove itself into the fabric of my being."
