Back in Diani

Being back in Diani is like coming home. What a joy to be here.  I adjust to the different climate, the heat and humidity are a welcome change from Pittsburgh weather. 

Still learning again to drive on the left side of the road, trying to remember all the pot holes and speed bumps along the drive. Ready to break for goats, monkeys, camels and cows on the road.

You also know that you are in a tropical climate when you kill cockroaches, live with spiders and have little geckos as roommates.

But it is good to be here and reconnect with friends. Excited what God has in store for me here.

 Partner with Church in Kibra, Nairobi

This week I met with three pastors from the slum area Kibra in Nairobi. Around 1 Million people live in unimaginable poverty. The church of the Pastors has a outreach program to the community, providing some very basic food.  The visitation program allows them to bless people not only with food but also with the word of God and an invitation to trust in Jesus. We are honored to partner with them providing funding for their loving effort.

Pastor Nicholas, right next to me has a heart for the street children in Nairobi. He recently began ministering to them and  building friendships to share God's love. Food is a means to reach the kids. Money for food is the main hindrance  to grow the outreach. Our support  enable him to buy food for the coming month. 

It was an honor to meet these three men. Their hearts desires for bringing relief to the poorest of poor blessed me.

Karibu Kenya

 Yes, I hardly can believe it myself! I am back in Kenya!  I pinch myself to realize it. 

My first day yesterday was  filled with activities. Without a doubt, the highlight was visiting the children's home and rescue center for girls.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Every day is a bit of an adventure here. Many good reasons to trust God for His leading and  protection.
