Miller Kenya Mission Trip Letter

By -
We believe in, "The God who gives life to the dead and calls things that are not as though they were."

One of God's beloved
We will be leaving for Kenya again soon.  We are believing He will bring life to many lifeless circumstances.  I will be leaving on September 29th for Kijabe, Kenya.  I will be joining a team of surgeons to perform cleft lip and palate surgery.  This will be my third trip with this team.  I am awestruck by the transformation that this surgery brings not only physically but also spiritually. These mothers and children are outcasts, but God adopts them and calls them righteous.  His grace and mercy are abundant, and many mothers come to know the goodness of the Lord through this surgery on their children.


Filters at the visually impaired school
Jimmy and Hunter will be joining me on October 8th to head up to Tenwek Hospital.  Jimmy will be casting a wide net this year for those in need of clean water.  The goal this year will be to distribute 300 water filters to needy schools, orphanages, and small villages.  Each year God is faithful to orchestrate divine encounters with Kenyans that lead him to special projects.  Last year was the visually impaired school.  This year we wait expectantly for what God will do.



New classrooms at Kitoben
Hunter will be leading us in orphanage ministry.  We continue to stay connected with Kitoben Children's Home.  They are in the later stages of building a school for classes K-5.  This comes through your generous donations.  Samwel and Alice have adopted over 100 children and continue to pour themselves out for these children.  It is such a blessing to see them growing up in the knowledge of the Lord.



Please pray for our travels.  There is unrest over an upcoming re-vote of the Kenyan Presidential elections.  This will be occurring while we are in country and may affect dates of travel.  Thank you for your support.  We have always felt this ministry was born of the Lord and fueled by the prayers and financial support of the saints.  Stay connected through our new website below or blog site:

God Bless, Jimmy and Chase Miller, and Hunter Legg

Arrived home

 We arrived back home safely for Easter!  Thank you for all your prayers.  This trip was a tough one but God proved Himself faithful as always.  God answered prayers in so many ways. 1. He poured forth rain from heaven.  The drought has ended and the people are rejoicing in the plentiful rains on the country. Compare this to week one photo of the waterfall at Tenwek.  The rains have allowed the hydroelectric plant to run again.  The fields are green again! 2. He healed His people physically!  This patient has TB of the spine.  She was paralyzed from the waist down and unable to sit up in bed.  Her arms were weak.  She underwent incision and drainage of a soft tissue abscess and spine stabilization.  I helped with the access in the neck for the neurosurgery team. She is now able to sit up in a wheel chair and strength is returning to her arms.  This is beyond what we could have hoped.  God is working His miracles. 3. He is healing His people spiritually.  This patient came in through ca

First Week

 I arrived safely after an arduous journey.  I did get questioned at customs again and needed to pay a Tarif but it was a reasonable rate this time.  I have been without internet until yesterday so I apologize for a late update. My first week was quite busy in clinic as I screened patients for upcoming surgeries.  We has some late nights but it is great to be back serving the Kenyans.  I have performed multiple biopsies on various tumors.  Unfortunately there is no pathologist here so the biopsies can take up to 3 weeks for results.  We will make daily calls to try to move up the cases urgently. This patient was ecstatic!  He was diagnosed with severe hearing loss in both ears.  I fit him with a digital hearing aid and he was able to hear clear for the first time in years!  They live 5 hours away and were so blessed! This is a typical thyroid goiter for this region.  She underwent evaluation of her vocal cords in preparation for upcoming surgery.  This will be a tough one to be done al

Chebonei Girls High School

Classrooms at Chebonei Girls High School We were recently invited to the Chebonei Girls High School to see if we could help them with water filtration.  We set up (2) 100 liter tanks (25-gallons each) and put two filters in each tank and then drilled another 5 pails that will collect the clean water with faucets.  They've been purchasing cases upon cases of bottled water, which gets very expensive, for their drinking water.  They have 2 large rain tanks that are currently empty, but they do have some water that is tapped in from the hospital, but the volume is not adequate and it is not always safe to drink.  They will now transport some water up from the river and use the filters to clean it. The school houses up to 507 high school girls ages 14-18 years old.  Hunter has visited them for games and was part of a devotional team that brought a message and did praise and worship music for them.  It is a Christian School, but not all are necessarily 'Believers' - they
