While we were shopping for supplies in Nakuru I saw an image that will forever be in my mind. Four boys, ages from around 12-14, stood in front of the truck and were sniffing glue. My heart went out to them and I couldn’t figure out what I was supposed to do. I prayed for those that were helping the street kids and I prayed for those boys – but I felt like the people who say “God bless you” and move on. It gave me a better perspective on how much help is still needed for the children at Nice View, Mercy Child and Eldama Ravine. Without a place to go these kids would be on the streets like these boys – with no home, no food, no love. I was able to talk to the kids at Eldama Ravine and tell them how thankful I am that God brought them to a home where people love them and take care of them. Thank you Lord for bringing me into their lives to see the transformation in them and be a part of their lives in some small way.
Chuck spent about an hour playing Frisbee with the kids and they loved it! There was laughter all day long and the Chief of Eldama Ravine asked us if we could hear what was happening. He said there was joy in the air and the children were happy and full of laughter now. What a blessing that is to be a part of!

I’m thanking God for 25 wonderful years of marriage to my best friend!
