Uneventful day – ha!
Today was a slow day because we slept in and didn’t get to the Academy until around 2 this afternoon. It felt good to sleep in and relax a bit this morning. When we got breakfast around 11 I told Chuck that would be a good time for a juicy Wendy’s hamburger! But alas...
Our first tourist safari
We decided before heading back to Tala tomorrow we would drive through the second most visited game park in Kenya – Nakuru National Game Park. It was amazing to see so many animals up close and in their natural surroundings. We got some great pictures but I’ll just...
"We’re like normal children now!"
Here is another great testimony of how your supports is giving not only food, shelter and clothing to these kids, but also hope for their future. Francisca told us that with the second funding that we had sent over to her (for Eldama Ravine) she told the children with...
God is faithful – Amen!
Went to services today at AIC Fellowship in Eldoret, they have two services in English and one in Kiswahili. We were told the English service started at 9:30 so we were getting ready to leave by 9 when Ruth told us service started at 9. So needless to say we missed...
Blessings upon blessings!
We spent the afternoon at Neema House (Grace House) with Pastor Joshua and his wife, Miriam. They have a home for children infected/affected by HIV/AIDS. What a blessing it was to meet with them and play with the children! It was also encouraging to hear their...
Family visits
This is Magie’s sons and sisters. They are wonderful hosts and it was great meeting her dad. He had to leave today for Uganda but we had a great visit. Then we visited Ruth’s family. From the back is Mutuku (our driver), Ruth’s sister-in-law, Ann, Ruth’s sister,...
Another day in Eldama Ravine
We spent the afternoon at Eldama Ravine and had fun with the kids. Chuck took the boys to get uniforms and shoes while I interviewed all the girls and got pictures of each one. Then it was the girls turn to go to town and I interviewed the boys. Lydia and Symon were...
The road to Eldoret!
The board at Eldama Ravine is working quickly (with the Lord’s guidance of course) on getting some projects started so that when we swing back through there will be some progress. They are working on the toilets – getting the water working so they will flush and...

A day of shopping for supplies for Eldama Ravine
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...
