As many of you know, the group made it to Nairobi last night around 9pm…a bit late but no worries. Everyone was accounted for except 4 pieces of luggage were unaccounted for (1 piece was delivered today but prayers are appreciated for the other 3). Everything was packed on the bus and we headed to C4KK for some chai (tea) and talk.
Even though it was late, talk continued into the wee hours of the morning…I was totally enjoying the “girlfriend” talk…thanks ladies!
Next morning didn’t come as early as planned, but hey this is Kenya…Hakuna matata (no worries)! The group had breakfast,
We had a tour of the property

A couple members of the group met their sponsored child…sorry no photos, it was too precious to interrupt with photos but I will get photos later. One story….the kids were coming home from school and a sponsor said hello to her sponsored child and said “I’m miss xx, your sponsor.” The child got a surprised look on her face then gave her sponsor a big hug!
What a blessing to see this interaction and to know God is in the middle of it all!
It’s almost dinner and I can hear chatter among everyone and thank God for this joy!
