God is working and opening doors and we are so thankful for all He is doing in this ministry. We had a presentation last night at the Gall’s home. We had the privilege of meeting some wonderful young people with hearts for serving. One (Meah) is sponsoring a child in Guatemala and she is paying for her sponsorship by selling homemade tote bags. Another (Nate) is raising money for the Sudan by making wood trivets. These young kids (around 12 years old) are an inspiration and I pray that we can learn a lesson in humility, service and love from them.

Then today we had a presentation at St. Vincent De Paul church in Shepherd, Michigan. Other than the cold wind and blowing snow we were warmly welcomed into the community. Carol Gall (whose home we were at last night) advertised the event in their newsletter and with posters. Thanks Carol!

We had a great conversation with Cheryl who has been to Kenya several times with groups of young people. We felt encouraged by her love for the people of Kenya and it made us even more homesick for our family and friends there.

I spoke today to a friend in Kenya and she was telling us how difficult life is there for everyone. Food prices are soaring and the rains have not come to their area…yet. We are trusting God to bring the rains.

Your support is always appreciated and in these difficult times we are thankful for your help in getting food, medical attention, education etc. to our kids at Nice View, Mercy and Eldama Ravine.
