In early 2006, All Saints' teamed up with Fr. Ogacho Abuto, a native Kenyan, to open the Amazing Grace Children's Home in Awasi, Kenya. Since the beginning days of Amazing Grace, All Saints' has played a special part in helping to provide building materials, clothing, bedding, medical care, and other financial, technical, and planning support. Since 2006, we have sent mission teams to the orphanage and developed personal relationships with the children. We, in many ways, extended our Church family by 72 beautiful girls who are cared for there.
For a more detailed history of Kenya and the development of the orphanage, look here for a series of articles that provide much greater detail.

To raise funds for the monthly support of the girls, we are selling boxed sets of Christmas cards, available in our parish book store, St. Anne's. The cards are illustrated by the girls of Amazing Grace. 100% of the sale proceeds go to the support of the girls.
We invite you to view the photos above and to come and see the wonderful art work the girls have created.
