Representing the Uasin Gishu County Government, Birgen said the visit underscored the administration\u2019s commitment to safeguarding children under its care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur key role is to protect, prevent, promote and transform our children,\u201d she said.
She thanked the Governor for the opportunity to support the children\u2019s growth and reaffirmed the county\u2019s resolve to enhance services at the facility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWe are determined to make this place better. We are glad that many institutions come to benchmark here, which shows we are doing our best,\u201d she noted.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Birgen pledged sustained support for the children\u2019s education and long-term welfare, including securing quality schooling and placement opportunities after they leave the centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fellowship service was led by Chaplain Rev. Susan Too, who delivered a message focused on hope and resilience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drawing from the biblical account of Paul and Silas in prison, she emphasized the power of prayer in overcoming adversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPrayer is the only way to get closer to God,\u201d she said, urging the children to remain steadfast in faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She encouraged them to seek the Holy Spirit\u2019s guidance, likening it to King Solomon\u2019s pursuit of wisdom, and to pray with unwavering belief, affirming that with faith, all things are possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
