PRAISE -
Safe travel to two far corners of Kenya during the month of April. I went to Mombasa to visit with Masudi (actually we met in Ukunda). I got to see his school and meet the family he stays with. We also had lunch at a nice restaurant and spent a few hours at the beach. It was good to re-connect with him and get caught up with one another.
Secondly, I traveled to Migori District (in South Nyanza Province). I accompanied Claire (a British gal from my church who's in Kenya working with an arm of Wycliff Bible Translators). She ministered during four teaching sessions in two days. We stayed with the pastor of the church. We had a nice bonus of an afternoon along Lake Victoria at Muhuru on the Tanzanian border. We got to see some Nile Perch that had been caught that day. We also got to spend a couple of hours at Lake Nakuru National Park. We saw lots and lots of animals - flamingos, zebra, buffalo, giraffe, rhino, gazelle, waterbuck, and warthogs. It was incredible to say the least!
Karo and Jeremiah's church recently held a "Love Offering" service. I was one of their special guests. They're raising money for a PA system and a keyboard. Their goal is 100,000/= ($1,500) and they were blessed with 25% at this function. They were quite pleased!
My friend, Cyndi (from Omaha) arrived safely last week. She'll be in Kenya for five months. She's rented a place on the same compound where I stay in Nairobi.
PRAYER REQUESTS -
Please remember to pray for Karo as she gives birth to her baby. It should be any day now! Pray also that all of their needs will be met.
Collins, Masudi, Masha, Musyoka, Rose, and Sammy all start back to school next week for their second term. Pray that they will develop not only along academic lines but all aspects of their character.
Wisdom for me as I frequently disciple and counsel various friends. This can be quite a challenge in a cross-cultural setting.
