Pastor Dorcas Rigathi on Tuesday, November 5, made a Christmas food donation to Mother Teresa Children’s Home in Langata, Nairobi.
The food donation was an early Christmas celebration with the girls who have cerebral palsy and other disabilities cared for at the home.
Pastor Dorcas urged parents, guardians, and caregivers not to hide those with disabilities, but to bring them out into the world to discover and celebrate their skills, abilities, and gifts.
“Let us not hide our beauty and the variety God gave us. But let us expose those with disabilities so they may also celebrate with us. Sometimes they may look different, and celebrate differently as they are doing here but they are human beings, and within them they have a joyful soul,” remarked Pastor Dorcas.

She decried the practice of hiding those with disabilities, saying, “Let them enjoy the environment God created for them.
All the girls at the facility were abandoned by their parents either along the road, at the hospital, police stations, bushes, and other locations, but found refuge at the home run by Missionaries of Charity.
