Here is the latest bulletin from Pastor David Kereto:

"Dear MEA Prayer Supporters,

People uprooted from their homes by post election violence have been enduring debilitating experiences as they struggle to cope with the situations and plan for their near future.

The national healing process is far from over, if views of those directly affected by the post election violence are anything to go by. A survey of thousands of families still living in camps for the internal refugees reveals feelings of despair that contrast with the mood among the political elite and other Kenyans in their homes.

In Narok town for instance, 1,600 people that are spread in Three camps are crying for attention. They claim that as politicians engage in mending fences, no one seems to be focusing on them and their unique needs.

And even as they hear of reconciliation talks going on in Nairobi, their plight paints a truly gloomy picture. Children as young as one week to adults of up to 68 years old are gazing in the horizon, hoping that a new dawn will come, and come soon. Occasional donations from individuals and charity organizations keep their bodies alive, but inside, their souls are dying.

Maasai Evangelistic Association - Emergency Food Relief Department had just off-loaded foodstuff, blankets, mattresses, sanitary towels to the women in the camps valued at over KSh. 400,000 to the displaced people in Narok Town, Naivasha and Bomet. MEA shall continue to mobilize resources in every way possible to support people in this camps until the government provides a permanent solution to this crisis. Efforts have also been made to absorb some children into nearby Schools, but even this is facing various challenges.

Three displaced people have died at a camp in Kipkelion. The victims at the Londiani Trading Centre, all of them women, died from unclear causes. The displaced people are exposed to extreme cold weather and unhygienic conditions in the camps. Children and the elderly are exposed to risks of various diseases as the camps are crowded. The condition in the camps are deplorable and well-wishers and donor agencies are ask to give more humanitarian support.

More Updates later.
