Six years ago, on a sunny afternoon, a pack of at least 10 stray dogs eerily staring at a strange bundle, waging their tails and growling strangely attracted passersby to a roadside thicket in Eldoret town.
The passersby were astonished to see a newly born baby wrapped in a shawl surrounded by the d0gs which immediately retreated after the people began to mill around the abandoned child.
“The baby was unharmed and was not even crying. It was not known how long she had been there but her age was estimated to be less than two weeks,” Bishop Wilson Kurui of Jesus Love Ministry narrated to TUKO.co.ke.

This was what he was told by a group of people who picked the baby girl and rushed her to a children’s home under Kurui’s custody.
“We have never understood why the rescuers chose this children’s home and not the hospital or police station but God’s plans are never coincidences,” he said of the incident that happened in December 2015.
The bishop’s first move was to thank God for rescuing the baby and immediately rushed her to Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital where she was given a clean bill of health and her age estimated to two weeks.
According to the man of God , together with his wife Christine, they took the baby to Eldoret Central Police Station and reported the matter after she was confirmed to be fine after which temporary custody was given to the Jesus Love Ministry Children’s Home.
Through regular appeals, well-wishers like Faith Hope and Love, Feel A Bucket with Love, Genesis Family 254 and other faith-based and charity organisations committed to cater for baby formulae, milk, food medicine and other essential needs for the baby’s growth, all while she was at the Kurui-managed children’s home.

It is now six years later and TUKO.co.ke caught up with Kurui to follow up on the progress of the girl with a big family, away from a home she has never known.
“Blessings come in many ways. Angel was left to die but God knew she was to live to become a vibrant and charming daughter who lights up our lives. She is a living testimony and a miracle to say the less,” Kurui said.
He described the child as a brilliant girl with an admirable grasp of new knowledge.
“She’s sharp and eloquent. She is in grade one under the British system of education but she always points out our grammatical errors reminding one that education knows no age,” Kurui said amid laughter.
The cleric who was once a street child in Mombasa after running away from cruel parents said he will do whatever is within his means to ensure the brilliant girl achieves all her life’s desires.
