Introduction 1. Mr. Speaker, once again, it is my singular honour to present the fourth Budget Statement under the Administration of His Excellency President Uhuru Kenyatta. This statement is being presented at a time when our economy is growing at a decent pace compared with other countries in the region and globally. In short, Mr. Speaker, our economy is performing quite well and the policy measures I intend to highlight this afternoon are intended to consolidate this momentum and lead to increased prosperity for all Kenyans. Accordingly, Mr. Speaker, the theme of this Budget is “Consolidating Gains for a Prosperous Kenya.” 2. Mr. Speaker, this optimism is not misplaced. It is indeed based on our well demonstrated capacity for resilience and strong and prudent management of our economic affairs, even in the face of a difficult global environment. I will, Mr. Speaker, in a short while demonstrate the recent economic successes that we have made as a nation under very difficult circumstances. But before I do that, Mr. Speaker, allow me, at the outset, to thank you for allowing us to read the Budget Statement on a Wednesday – a break from the past where we read it on Thursdays.

  • The Loading Dock
    March 2016 The Loading Dock Ps 68:19—Blessed be the Lord who daily loads us with benefits! Dear Friends and Family, It is dry season here in Kampala, Uganda, which brings lots of sun and heat! Unfortunately, dry season can also bring a lack of food to many households in areas like Karamoja who rely on the rains for their crops. We continue to have the opportunity to fly teams to evaluate the needs and help to provide necessary food supplies. In one of the villages of Karamoja called Kaabong, we have been flying for the Baptist mission. After many years of ministry the missionaries were beginning to become quite Taking off from Kaabong Airstrip discouraged at the lack of fruit. However, this past summer they began seeing many people turn to Christ. Ministry and church are very different from a normal town setting as many of the “villages” are families that live in mud or thatch huts which are surrounded by thorns. Our idea of traditional church buildings simply don’t work, and the Baptist IMB (International Mission Board) teams have learned to do church in a communal family setting. The gatherings of elders often lend themselves to discipleship times. However, these teams are very isolated from towns where they can get supplies and rely on MAF for access to the outside world. IMB teams and younger missionaries often come here for training in remote living. A Karamajong village — the center is for the cattle to be guarded at night Other organizations we fly to Karamoja have also been active in helping communities to live in peace and have food and water stability.
