Sunday service, neighbors and grasshoppers!
Here is a typical Sunday service at the AIC (African Inland Church) where Pauline and Gideon are members. I probably shouldn’t say “typical” because we got stuck going into the church gate. It had rained the night before so the roads were really muddy, but also a...
Back online!
Sorry for no post but we haven’t had electricity since Wednesday night! The school had electricity on Wednesday and for a bit on Thursday then it went out until Thursday night, but God’s timing is perfect. We bought a generator for the school on Wednesday afternoon...
Easter Sunday
Easter Sunday! He is raised from the dead and He is Lord! “My tongue will speak of your righteousness and of your praises all day long.” Psalms 35:28 Spent the morning in church and the youth pastor spoke today. He is very kind and does some English so we can keep...
Back goes out…
What a day! (Thursday the 20th) I woke up this morning fine but when I got up from my reading my back went out! Anyone who has had back issues understands that this was not a fun situation. We’ll see how the day progresses! We got to school and I pretty much walked...
Catching you all up – again!
Yesterday we went into Nairobi again to get text books, inner wear (underwear), PE shorts and some miscellaneous items. While Chuck, Gideon and Kathryn were getting those supplies gathered Pauline and I went into the Maasai Market. It’s a huge flea market type...
Lots of information and pictures
I forgot to tell you that yesterday I was invited into the “Fanaka” group! For those of you who don’t know Kiswahili that’s Blessed group. Pauline meets once a month with a group of ten women who read scripture, pray for one another, talk and encourage each other. I...
Lesson learned in Kenya
Today I had a funny thing happen to me in church (how many times do you get to say that?) We were watching the youth choir singing and a little girl came up to me and smiled, so I picked her up and she sat on my lap. She kept looking back at me and smiling and we were...
See the pictures!!!
GO BACK AND READ OLD POSTS - WE HAVE PICTURES!!!!! It was a busy day today! While in Tala with Pauline (she was getting her hair done) I almost got run over by an ox cart! I’m not used to watching out for those so luckily Pauline pulled me out of the way before the...
We didn’t visit Sister Pauline today because we had some business to attend to in Tala before school. The afternoon was quite busy because the construction crew is getting ready to pour the slab for the first floor. It was pretty neat watching them get the planks...
Another hot day today so no visiting, but Pauline had school business in Machakos so we went with her there. The land there is beautiful and it’s kind of like Phoenix, in a valley. But their mountains are very green compared to Phoenix. They also have a spot as you...
